I have the same false bottom and love it also, very sturdy and allows very little grain thru. Also aids in mash temps due to the extra water volume and allows step mashing without scorching grain.

Can't believe the top seal for a 14.5 gallon blichmann lid seal cost 25 bucks, for a strip of rubber. Mine split in a spot removing the lid for cleaning. Anyone have ideas or a cheaper replacement.

Gonna do a saison, Maybe it will change the weather to summer. Washington state has been cold.

Spend the money on a pump and fly sparge has improved every part of my set-up. I mash in a 15 gallon Keg and fly sparge from my 15 gallon keg with a pump and i always seem to hit my OG attempt. I mash and then sparge, then clean keg and use it for my boil, Because i only have two kegs and one...

I buildt a stand and bought one March pump, But may ad another in the future. One thing i have relized if you are Fly sparging and have a good Stainless keg for Mash Tun you dont really need But one burner, One is really all i use and i made a stand for three. I heat my tank to about 11-14...

I am trying to figure out the best way to control my temps on my stainless blichmann. I have thought about building a small closet sized room in my cave or using a ferm heater wrap. has anyone had experience with these. I dont want to heat my brew room all winter, so i have been brewing and...

nice ! great set-up.

I have recently decided to start doing 10 gallon batches because the 5 gallon batches go quicker than expected, :drunk: out in my shop with two buddys we drank a 5 gallon batch in two evenings working on a car. My keggles are 15.5 so i should have no problem. I hope.

Brewing here today in Washington. Speciality beer called octopus ink ! Just racked a drakes extra. :mug:

:mug:

Not sure of the science but I have a adventures in brewing keggle with false bottom that has 2.5 gallons before it touches the grain bed, and my beer smith efficiency is always above 75 percent. I would think during mash heavier sugars would sink below the screen and during fly sparge it would...

I have a similar setup, but I fly sparge and only use one pump, on my 5 th AG and doing well, but I found out as you will during your mash the SS kegs actually go up in temp after grain is added to tun and heat is off, so I found out that you need some way to move it away from the hot rack...

You guys are complicated, I crank it to 30 psi shake for a few minutes ! Done ! Wait three weeks :D no way !

Buy a beverage air and never look back. Worth every penny.

Kegging is far more efficient than bottling ! No more washing, no more storing, no more worries about bacteria in bottles, no more waiting for carbonization ! Heck ya it's worth it !

30 psi shake and shake, purge off a couple short blasts to get out any o2 then shake, I stand mine on its top then bottom then top a few times, you will hear the co2 being absorbed in the beer. Cold time, then :mug: 6-10psi for serving.

Bump

Why would you circulate the water in the same tank, sparge ? What's the upper tube for.

Its quiet until the liquid is done out of my liq tank, I only restrict it on the output side. My directions say don't run dry, but it should say don't run without a liquid load or a full pump housing. It's wet and squeals like a hooker at a vibrator convention. :D

I stand corrected, your right this pump should not be run dry. But its technically not dry, just not under load, squeals like a pig ! Guess i will just have to watch water levels really close !
