I agree 100%.

I used a Blichman Boil coil. It was very easy to install and simple to unplug for cleaning. (2 small holes rather than one large one.) I do BIAB and have never scorched a bag when maintaining mash temp. without a false bottom. The bag touches the coil directly.

I agree

I have almost the same system with a boil coil. I used an elevated false bottom at first to protect the bag from the coil, didn't like it and now use nothing with no problems. Recently I have stopped recirculating and my beer is still great. Enjoy your new system.

I agree, It works well for me.

I had a similar problem and was able to correct it by removing the stationary roller and cleaning it well and placing some food grade oil on it. It appears to want to stick and then the grain can't feed through it.

I recently made a cream ale and forgot to add 6 ml of phosphoric acid that bru'n water recommended to lower the ph to 5.4. My mash efficiency was 87% and the brew house efficiency was 80%, Will the beer have a flat taste without the acid and can I still add the acid. The beer is now...

Thanks fellows, I was trying to avoid removing the coil and scrubbing it down with Bar Keepers Friend.

How are what do you use to clean your boil coil. I am constantly trying to keep it clean and it is an effort. Have given thought to changing to induction heating to make cleanup easier. I would appreciate your thoughts

My wife also was afraid of propane especially after I melted the gas line leading to the regulator and a secondary fire. I was able to turn the valve off before it caused serious damage. I went to ebiab and and enjoy the simplicity and great beer. If I was starting over I would look at the...

tremendous. highly recommend it.

I had the same problem until I purchased one of these. The false bottom restricts the flow too much. The larger openings in this one will allow a proper recirculation. https://www.brewhardware.com/product_p/biabbottom15.htm They are available in different diameters.

I have had trouble nailing my mash temperature and needing to add more heat or ice cubes to reach it. What would be the problem of adding my grain when the strike water was 130 F. and gradually raise the temp. to 153 F and maintain my mash temp. It would be similar to a step mash and fairly...

Using liquid yeast that you have saved from an earlier batch or using liquid yeast with a starter to increase numbers and health of your yeast. I also use a lot of dry yeast and get great results.

That is a neat idea, I have a similar problem and used a silicone tubing but wasn't smart enough to think of using a copper wire to make it even better. Thanks.
