I am going to brew my 5 batch of all grain and it will be the Bee Cave Brewery Hefe. I only started to dial in my system on the 4th and 5th batches. The first 3 were rough...
I brew with a 3 keggle system, direct fired mash tun, and a SABCO false bottom. Im still having a hard time maintaining a constant temp in the MLT. I will be using a pump for the first time on this batch. Im not sure if I am going to use the pump to go from the HLT to the MT, or if I will use it to take the wort from the MT to the BK. Let me know what you think about that, if it even matters...
Anyhow... I have read that Hefe's can be tricky. Ive heard that they can get stuck, or end up with some off flavors if not done well. Why is this? The recipe calls for some rice hulls, so hopefully that will help.
Also, I was considering a 10 gallon batch. Does this make it any more difficult?
