Bravo! Very clever. I love simple and compact brewing systems.

Here you can find a DIY "Braumeister", it's in swedish but the pictures are multilingual (and if you want to read the text, try translate.google.com)

I took photos from every possible angle, hope they will tell the story, cause I found it hard to explain myself in English.

few upgrades

bottom draining (on the right) and pump inlet port (left)

thermometer and sight glass

new circulation pump (march ac-3-md), installed permanently and the bottom

currently it is not temperature controlled.
thinking of using this card or arduino(brewtroller) for controlling the pump and heating element

Hello everyone. I am trying to build a similar brewing system myself. Actually what I am trying to do is convert an electric kettle of 30 litres capacity into a brewing machine similar to a Braumeister.

I'd like to know what kind of pump should I use. I don't know the amount of water the pump should be able to pump per hour. I want to do 20 liter batches.

Can you please help me with that? my pump knowledge is very limited,

Thanks,
Al

first of all, 30 liter is a bit small for 20 liter batches. you'll need at least 35 liter vessel.
25 liter of wort, pre boil
+-5 kg of malt + same amount of absorbed water

about the pump, as long as you have good seal between the two vessels, march 809 or equivalent should be fine.

Cool setup, love the single vessel systems.
