  corona mill I think would be ideal but don't have one...rolling pin or coffee grinder are
  options but sounds like a lot of work for 10lbs. I think i will try to crank my grain mill as
  small a gap as i...

  I have 10lbs of malted millet for a pale ale...wondering how to prep the millet. I'm guessing I
  need to crush it, but it's too small to be crushed in my grain mill. Do I throw it in a
  blender? Anybody...

  addition is .5oz Simcoe, .75oz Cascade at 15mins, .5oz Cascade at KO, 1.25oz Cascade DH. Mash

  this may be true but i would argue that homebrew is better than commercial beer in most cases
  anyway. it would be interesting to see a comparison of two, or more, identical beers brewed
  with the vorla...

  i'll play devil's advocate here...why would commercial breweries bother with vorlauf if it
  didn't improve the beer? They are always looking for shortcuts and cost-saving options, yet
  I've never heard ...

  as i'm sure you have or will read...make sure your control box is oversized. Nothing worse than
  trying to cram everything in small box. Mine is perfect sized but no where to grow. As
  mentioned you wil...

  You could try here: to the guy Mike there a little while back, said he this will be his first

  Sounds like verticulum wilt to me...I had a Cascade bine that almost cracked from the ground to
  the crown (~15ft) continually which i blamed on verticulum although not positive of ID. The
  leaves were ...

  27l isn't all that big, if it was me I would hold out for something a little bigger, 30l+ to
  account for boil-overs and if you ever wanted to do a BIAB. Overall that looks like a nice
  set-up. Speidel ...

  So I've build a little wooden box with a lid that lifts open which is mounted to my brewstand
  to contain a tri-clover RIMS tube from Derrin. The box just looks awkward with or without the
  tube...basic...
