Biggest pile of C##P i have ever purchased. Will not mill on any setting. Will only mill conditioned grain. The answer i got from Kegland was, i am milling incorrectly? I have owned a mill for years, decided to upgrade to this instead of using my drill based maltcruncher, and after being told...

Exactly what i do in normal circumstances. With the Aromazyme, i have done another batch, with hop additions at whirlpool, and no dry hop. The aroma and bitterness is in my opinion much better.You also get a dryer beer as the Attenuation is lower, so for an ipa its pretty damn good stuff.

So both batches dry hopped with 5g per ltr at day 3. Aromazyme was dosed at the same time the wort was transferred from the kettle at 20 degrees,so no hydrating prior. Both batches had been dosed with yeast nutrient (yeast vit) and antifoam. Grain bill was 100% pale malt 1.057 into fv 32...

Right so the experiment with Aromazyme has been completed. There is a definative difference between the 2 beers,infact it is obviously different. Mouthfeel of the enzyme dosed beer is a smooth bitterness, no puckering bitterness if you know what i mean. Mouthfeel smooth, Aroma is mellowing...

Got 2 fermenters conditioning at the moment, split 100ltr into 2 fvs FV1 with Aromazyme finished at 1.009 FV2 1.012 both with Meuteka hops. The aromazyme was dosed at 2.5g in 50ltr, the bitterness is certainly smoother, will see when its packaged.

Who is cloning your design? I buy nothing from China, i source all my 304 from uk engineering, if i cant buy it, i have it manufactured locally.

In respect of clarity issues, i have not found clarity any different by using a bag, but i do recirculate. In respect of rice hulls i was a once an avid user of them in high flaked oat mashes, now i dont use at all, they have a tea like smell once you start the transfer from the higher mash out...

Yes my kettle lid already has the centre triclamp fitting for my CIP,but i want to keep this contraption small, and as you say my lid is also curved downwards so will have a slight angle on the pipework. I am worried that 1.5 inch is not going to be big enough on a 200ltr pot.

Just looking at nozzles online, the few i have are not cone, my water flow rate is 7second per ltr, is this around the same as most? Obviously i want to use less water as possible.

Very well put together. I was a 3 vessel brewer with a herms until 2 years ago. I then went onto a 2 tier full recirculation, full volume no sparge. 83% efficiency. i upgraded to a bigger kettle 200ltr with a false bottom,but kept my 80ltr SS Brewtech mash tun. I now mash in the Brewtech and...

Are you using a flat kettle lid or a domed lid? i am looking at building my own condenser for a 200ltr kettle,as my current application needs changing
