I brew with a 10 gallon setup from 3 sanke kegs converted into HLT, MLT and BK. When I brew I usually do 10 gallons. Obviously to brew water is used, and a lot of it goes down the drain, sanitize solution, washing out the mash tun, drinking (I brew outside, it gets hot) and many other uses. So of course I expect my water bill to show a bit of a change if I brew a few times a month rather than just once.
I hook the end of my immersion chiller up to a hose and fill up a 50 gallon rain barrel and use ice packs in place of ice when chilling the wort in a water bath.
Does anyone have any good tips on how to conserve and reuse any of the water used on a brewday?
