It’s in the fermenter done. But staying in for another week low temps. And cabining in the unitank.

If I lived there because my brewbuilt won’t drop two 6g unitanks to under 40 degrees when it’s 85 in my garage.

I’m looking in the sight glass of my ssbrewtech unitank. But also when I took a small 4oz out in a small sample glass to get my starting OG.

Well I brewed it today. Went well. My 70% eff was like 79% per beersmith so I way overshot it. But I will say it’s brown as heck. I see zero red lolol. We’ll see when it clears when I crash it.

I have the monster mill 3 roller?? I use a drill with a variable speed adapter so I try to go as slow as I can without it stalling. I gotta speed it up slow it down so it does stall

I use a custom Basket for my solo. And recirc it it sprays on top. I guess only 1 way to find out
