    Has anyone tried a single decoction mash with the 3 in 1? If so can you share your process?

    I was lucky in that the washer and dryer are in the garage. That gives me access to 220 power, water, and a drain. I added rubber matting to the outside of the bowl to deaden the sound when clanking around the sink.

    Thanks for the input! I used Beersmith and the profiles from Brewha, but I may need to figure out some adjustments. Such as the comment "up the water to grist ratio". By how much? The next brew will be after the National Homebrew Convention in a few weeks. I am going and will hit up Nathan...

    I think condensation issues are tied to local weather at the time and how vigours the boil is, along with fan speed, duct length, and my astronomical chart for the brew day. My condensate point is near the fan at the wall. I silicone caulked all the duct seams where the duct exits the house...

    I got the bowl from a used restaurant supply place, aluminum and larger in diameter than the BIAC.

    Well, I have seen some comments on the amount of material at the bottom after mash. I saw that on my first brew, but that was my only brew, so I have no idea if what I saw was normal, or if I had a channeled grain bed, or to fine a crush. I doubt the crush as I was at .045 on the MM3...

    Has anyone combined a brew in a bag with the medium colender?

    I went with the motor offered by all American ale works. It drives a Monster MM3 SS mill. The work to set up the direct drive using their directions was straight forward. The electrical was the hardest part because I am parinoid about electrical safety. The cabinet was given by a...

    The manifold feeds cold water to my clothes washer, the sink, the RO/DI filter and the SS 10 inch sediment and Daulton ceramic carbon block filter

    The 24 by 24 sink was a huge help in making clean up easier. I have a commercial rise sprayer and regular faucet. The pot filler nozzle is hooked to the sediment and carbon block filter and four way manifold.

    Well the first brew is done! It was also my first brew ever. After a year of reading, listening, and watching I dived into the deep end. I have attached some pictures of the system I and my brother in law are building. Some newbie goof ups were, dumping trub using the full port ball...

    Onemanbrewery, Where did you get the wedge wire? What size colender do you have? Thanks!

    Well, My system delivery got a bit hosed up, but Nathan is working to correct it. I had what I thought was going to be a simple business trip to Brussels this week. I missed getting caught in the airport explosion by 5 minutes. I just not got to London via Eruostar train, the airport...
