    Recirculation temp for direct fire mash

    I run a recirculating mash. I have a thermometer on a t coming out of the tun and then I have a thermowell going into the grain bed. What I have found is there will be a temp difference between the tun and the grain bed while you are heating. When you fire your heat up, you are going to have...

    No Krausen

    I wasn't really concerned about it, just more curious as to what would cause it or why it would happen. I pulled a gravity sample on it tonight and it's about 3/4 of the way finished and it tasted great.

    No Krausen

    Just curious is anyone has ever had this happen. I pitched a 2000ml starter of 1056 into a scottish ale at 1.043. I don't have any concerns with the fermentation as the bubbles are going like mad and you can see the churning in the fermenters. The temp is holding right at 62/63. I have never...

    False Bottom Dead Space Issue

    I have a similar scenario in my setup. I have a 15 gallon mash tun. I have roughly 2.5 gallons of dead space. In my setup, I do have a pump to recirculate the mash water. It's a direct fire setup, so I'm able to keep a pretty good temperature between the mash and the water that is...

    Help on Kai's sheet

    25 gallons. I'm also treating it to conform to an IPA so I will have somewhere in the neighborhood of 300ppm sulfate.

    Help on Kai's sheet

    I have a question on Kai's spreadsheet. I'm going to treat my water with pickling lime due to the high alkalinity, but I have a question in regards to the overall salt additions. There are two sections of salt additions; one being the "necessary salt additions" and the other being "necessary...

    Craft brews in Italy?

    I was over there a couple of years ago....I tried some of the beers and they sucked. I'm not sure of the names, but they were Italian. We stayed in the Tuscany region and I'm not sure if they know what beer is in that area:) At any rate, just drink the wine. I'm by no means a huge wino, but...
