That's a better option cleanup wise. They did not yet have the option when I ordered.

Of course it depends on the mash profile. I do a lot of Belgian style beers with long step mashes. Those run about 4.5 hours. Quickest I've had was 3.

No sight glass. He will add one of you ask. Don't know the price. I added one myself with parts I already had. Soldered on a T-clover from brew hardware.com.

Brewing a sour Saison? My first sour. Will barrel age for secondary.

Day. I'm using an uno with r Pi. How do I tell which version? I used the install instructions at the beginning of this thread.

Brew Pi noob here. I completed my build all the way to the point of loading the hex file for the Arduino and the programming script says "could not find compatible device" then says Cannot receive version number from controller and says I must be running a very old version of brew Pi please...

Sorry about the auto correct pretzelb

I agree pretzels. My fave beer is Saison. I've brewed many with both traditional and now eBIAB and I can't perceive a taste or appearance difference in the finished beer between the two methods. The difference between the two for me revolved around nailing down the step by step procedure...

For those worried about having clear wort by using the grain bed as a filter, This is a good read. http://brulosophy.com/2014/06/02/the-great-trub-exbeeriment-results-are-in/

That's a lot of ?s. You can't boil in the basket as it cavitats as it boils and will cause the element to scorch. I use a stainless hop spider for my hops. Quality of all parts is on par with any other systems I've seen. Welds are very nice and I've had zero rust on anything. No pasivation...

I do use BeerSmith, I made my own profiles. I didn't know there was a brew boss add on or I would have just used their profile. I made 2 profiles, a 6.5 and a 13. When I brew a double batch I ferment in 2 fermenters.

As for chilling, I use a plate chiller. I would be cautious about putting the a heavy chiller on top of the element.

I'll try to take some pics tomorrow. For a 6.5 gal batch it takes about 15 min to get to mash temp and I get about a degree per 1.5 min rise with grain and pump running during a step mash. With grai/basket out takes about 8-10 min to reach full boil from 168 deg mashout. Am using a 5500 w...

I've had 35lbs and still had some room. If you go on their web site and ask Tim he always responds within a day. Great folks to deal with....

I haven't experienced that issue. You always get a little wort cooked onto the element but it cleans right off with oxyclean/tsp or pbw. No scorched flavors at all.

I'll have to take a pic. I asked for the butterfly valves instead of ball and Tim swapped it out. There are three TC ports in the bottom, temp probe, heating element and out flow. Top one is for recirculating like you figured so no valve.

I do 6 gal batches most of the time, which gives me a full 5 gal finished/carbed. Occasionally I do 12 gal bouble batch and split for fermentation. Both ways are equally easy/effective. Highly recommend this system.
