  My understanding of rice hulls is that they can be added to a mash without any effect on the
  taste or body of the beer and their function is to loosen the mash up a little. Might work, I
  have never tr...

  I am new to all grain, but I have done some research on the matter. Take my advice with a bit
  of caution because I am by no means an expert. Okay, most every beer is mashed between 150-158
  degrees. Th...

  You know money is a factor... At least being broke and brewing are two easy things to make
  work. See I have a burner now and it was intended for a 5 gallon kettle. My 10 gal sits on
  there but not how ...

  I just checked my pot and it's Stainless Aluminium Stainless sandwich on bottom. Why? I am not

  Currently I have a 40 Qt. Stainless Steel Stock Pot for my boil. I am looking to do 10 gallon

  Has anyone used the Bayou Classic SP1 Jet Cooker to brew beer with. I want to put a keggle on

  anyone has used...

  I was getting hung up on the heat factor. Let it sit or heat it? I think that while the
  draining process takes a decent amount of time I could hit it with the flame a little. Thanks

  So you do your vorlauf and then drain you MLT. Now I have some wort in my brew kettle. Does it
