    Recirculate Mash without any supplementary heat.

    I'm brewing an Imperial IPA today. I'm in the process of building a brew system, but it's not done yet. However I want to utilize my pump and recirculate my mash to set my grain bed and clarify my sweet wort. I don't think I can recirculate for the entire 60 minutes as the temp will fall too...

I have an Aubrins 2362 for my RIMS tube but thought it would be nice to keep a watchful eye on other pertinent temperatures on my panel, but not invest $80 to $90 per PID and...

    Thermowells 101

It's a SS sheath that encircles the mechanical probe from the thermometer. So the beer never comes in contact with the probe. I asked John about the...
