    nitrogen carbon dioxide mix

    There is normally two blends of "beer gas". One is %75 CO2 %25 Nitrogen (could also be 70/30). Then there is something like %70 Nitrogen %30 CO2 (This is sometimes referred to as Guiness gas) I have a feeling you got the standard beer gas blend and thats why you are not getting the expected...

    Single Tier vs. Two Tier Build

    Single Tier vs. Two Tier Build

    I plan on direct firing my MLT (keggle) and recirculating at the same time. I like the idea of using a grant thats why I was planning on having the MLT and BK at the same height. The grant will probably happen later though.

    Jaybird's Stainless False Bottoms

    Do you have any pictures of the diptube assembly? Is it made from a stainless tube and fittings? I am also going to be direct firing my mash. Do you think I should have some spacers built on the bottom?
