Go with this http://www.nybrewsupply.com/copper-wort-chiller-garden-hose-fittings-12-x-50.html Copper 1/2 best one I have found, until you want a counterflow I put a "T" in to the home waterline and tapped right to my kitchen's sink's 3/4 Inch feed line :)

If I could start over I would have bought the Braumeister 50L for Indoors use before the Rimms (But Im in WI, if I were down South it would be different) Braumeister can do 1.065 all grain and you can get it higher with DME and LME or Dextrose But Love my Rimms, just splurged for the...

Would you ever see the need for 2 inline for 15 gallons of liquid wort? (WI groundwater here is quite cold 50 degrees tops mid summer)

Any updates on this? I just worry about how easy this is for cleaning, I am considering but am worried about trub getting lodged. aka possible infection issues Feedback please?

I have been using a Propane/Gas 10Gal RIMMS for about a year now with a good 10 batches down. I love it I went with the route of the Blichman Controller (Gas) and built my own Recirc with a Rotometer (flow) (tower of power copy) I just upgraded my 1.2 Megapot 10G MLT w Norcal False Bottom...

For an indoor system this is what I plan to buy (a 20L) and I will keep my 20Gallon Gas RIMMS Garage system for larger beers Club really loves the 20L Braumeister one of our members has 2, its just limited by mash capacity as the issue with the 20L is the max LBs of grain you can have in it...

Thanks BeardedBrews, Funny I did exactly what you suggested on my own. Ill scan it and post a jpg/pdf

Conclusion HLT / MLT / BOIL 15 / 15 / 20 : This would be the best 3 pot configuration choice to begin with This is also a Blichmann Engineering Recommended setup for RIMMS (Spike's Temp Gage is just much lower than the Boilermakers, and Spike's prices are better) After the 15G MLT...

For Minimums 8.5 LBS of Grain = 4.40-4.90 Gallons Volume (1.040) Means that with Spike's Site Glass Kettle with the temp gauge at 4" gives: Tun Size 10G /15G /20G Top Gage at marker 2.5 Gal / 3.75 Gal / 4.5 Gal So any Batch at 1.040 would get past 15G but just hit 20G's Temp Gage Port

Thank you to those above that are constructive in their comments Just wanted some feedback before I end up with a 20 Gallon Mash Tun I can't use for a 6 gallon 1.040 batch The Spread Sheet I listed was the best resource. I created a matrix for 10/15/20 At 1.75 / 80% effic Tun...

Nice Chart (MLT Size) download and editable in XLS https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1zrHGCXE11USIYX9S2ZBle6YbW4RlEbC7wO_Be-eRItQ/edit#gid=0 Java Calc http://www.rackers.org/calcs.shtml

Vinegar, 1 gallon across 4 bowls close it and let it sit for a week

And I mash at 1.5 to 1.75 ratios qt/lb

Did see in the other thread: "If you know your expected efficiency, you can try this. To calculate for mash tun size requirement in quarts (80% efficiency of course), it's (Desired OG x Batch Size)/17 = mash tun size Let's say you want 1.088 x 15 gallons, it's (88 x 15)/17= 77 quart tun...

(PREFACE : Had Sent this to Spike and was told to look at what BeerSmith software recommenced) SMH SO here is where I am at, I Upgrading My Current setup / MegaPot 10Gallon Boil, MegaPot 10Gallon Mash, Generic 14.5Gallon HLT I currently brew for Corney Kegs (5 Gallons finished) (need to...

We have 2 in our club, They are good to ~1.060 but higher OG than that is difficult, unless you boil or add LME DME Good system!

Any videos of this in action?

Love my pocket pro as well
