I did something similar on my HLT & Mash Tun 10gal water cooler system. I would heat water 25degs hotter than my mash temp and put my old copper wort chiller into the HLT. Then I would put a pump between the valve of the Tun, send the wort through the chiller to pick up heat when needed and...

The 20gal Ss Tuns come pre-drilled with a re-circ port. Ss also sells the correct drill bits with detailed instructions for drilling out the 10gal modes.

My wife bought me the Ss 20Gal Mash Tun for Christmas. :-) New Years day I brewed a 10gal batch of Black IPA. I would always fly sparge while using my previous 10gal water cooler system so I decided to batch sparge since I had the extra capacity. I preheated the tun with 5gals, dumped...

Thanks Maylar. I make prison houch from time to time in 1 gallon jugs with 3 cans of apple or apple/something concentrate, cup of sugar and water top off. I hit it with a crushed Campden tablet about the 45 - 50 day mark. It's hazy at that point = kinda clear/kinda cloudy. 10 days after...

Any thoughts or recommendations? Brought back 5 gallons of pure fresh pressed cider to Suffolk VA from a local orchard in Titusville, PA the weekend after Thanksgiving. I got the cider the night before I departed for home and hit it with Campden.. Next day I ran to the local HBS and...

10 Gallons of Black IPA

Great that you got a free plate chiller,.. sucks that it wasn't properly taken care of before you got it. My kids got me a Blickman Terminator for my birthday about a year ago. I have about a dozen brews through it so far, but always put it on line in a closed loop with the mash tun and pump...

Great idea for Pizza Dough!!!

Just made my first bread from the grains of a Black IPA I did on New Years Day. It was fantastic, but needed some salt. 3 Cups of spent grain, 5 Cups flour, 1 cup of Homebrew Baltic Porter, some sugar and water. Of course I did a flour/yeast starter the night before. Made two very nice size...

127 + 10gal Black IPA = 137

I've used frozen 1gal plastic water jugs when I've overshot my strike water, but never on wort after to boil. Seems like a fairly high risk for infection to me.

Just getting ready to pitch yeast on my Black IPA - 10gal batch. It was a long day but got a 20gal Ss Brew Tech Mash Tun for Christmas and was dying to try it out.

Best $20 spent for brewing to date. Wouldn't be without it.

Just blew home brew out of my nose reading the thread title. Sorry, no wisdom to offer here.

The price to find out is just a small starter. Do one with the dregs and see if the yeast propagates.

20gal Ss Brew Tech Mash Tun. Hellz Yes!!!

That is a very nice and clean configuration. Well done, Sir. I have been building my brew table on paper for the past month or so. Think I have it all figured out and will start building soon. Oh, love the green accents. Especially the inline water filter canister.

I think you should be ok. Don't get wrapped around the axle about the lack of air lock activity on a starter. Ideally you want a slightly loose wrap of sanitized tin foil over the top of the flask Does you solution look "milky"? If so, the yeast are propagating. If started tonight, I would...

I have an Anvil as well and get 3 - 4 brews from a bottle of propane. Depends if I do 10gal batches or not.

No,.... I used 4 packs (35ml) of liquid English Ale yeast. Starter got dropped on the floor. Looking to finish with (1) pack of US05
