Heres what a 16 lb grain bill looks like!

Just milled 16 lbs in a barley crusher with DeWalt 20v - I don't miss hauling out a cord!

I never heard of him until he got shut down! Great inadvertent advertising benefit :) I subscribed and watched my first video on kegging (part 4?) - love that star-san plume!

That looks like second generation (screw cap on one end)

I think the most I’ve done is 16.5 lbs. For anything bigger I’m swapping some base malt for DMS.

Mostly I let Beersmith set the volumes but I like big beers and if the grain bill is over 16 lbs I shift some water into the sparge So everything fits.

Yeah, I shift volume between mash and sparge all the time. Theres a couple things I do to make sure I hit volume: I set up a sight tube off the dump valve to be sure I sparge to pre boil volume and using the Robobrew pump, tilt the RB to get everything possible Into the fermenter.

No, 5.75 gal post boil in the Robobrew, 5.25 gal in the fermenter. So, 1 gal per hour.

How do your volume numbers compare to mine?

I use Beersmith which has decent profiles for equipment and mash. Are you sparging? For similar grain weight and boil time, I’ve got 5.5 gal mash in, 6.75 gal pre boil, for 5.25 gallon output. I sparge enough water to get 6.75 pre-boil (usually ~2.6 gal). My mash grist ratio is always 1.7 with...

I own a robobrew 3.0 35L w/ pump and am reasonably satisfied with it. I've never seen an Anvil system let alone brewed on it, so its tough to provide a valid comparison. I understand Anvil has dual voltage, which is cool. Most of my negatives with Robobrew are related to big beers, 16 lb grain...

Agree with camonick. I happen to own pin lock. They work fine for me and I buy my kegs used, so no issue finding them.

There's tons of threads on this. Either one is fine, ball lock items are more prevalent though.

I double checked on the posted photo and it shows the polycarbonate Tube replaces the stainless pump tube, so it’s mounted top and bottom.

I checked with Williams Brewing, I don't think they were aware of it but said to expect availability in the fall or early winter.

You’ll never look back...

Kegland is offering a polycarbonate sight glass retrofit. Currently out of stock there, so could be a while before we see it in the states. https://www.kegland.com.au/polycarbonate-sight-glass-2-piece-set-1.html

A clean thread for Robobrew and Brewzilla owners to compare experiences and share problems. I own a version 3.0 35L Robobrew With the upgraded 3.1.1 Brewzilla circuit boards. No regrets for me! I‘m sometimes frustrated by its limited capacity, but I’m learning workarounds to enable brewIng of...

I started a new thread, Robobrew/Brewzilla discussion, for no other reason than I have no regrets :)

I'm told one year. Dilute 1 part glycol with 2 parts distilled water
