I’ve seen some that only top up their wort to 21lts instead of the stated 23lts in the kit instructions. Just wondered if others recommend this.

Thanks for the info. I set up a min/max thermometer yesterday and checked it tonight whist running a pre brew test with a bottle of water. I get a 1.2degC swing with the stc1000 set with a deviation of 0.5degC. Currently the prob is in the water so that I can measure the temp of the heat mass...

I’ve seen guys on YouTube brewing videos that don’t make up the full 23lts and only brew the kits at 21lts. Supposedly to improve body and ensure the ABV is reached. Hopefully as I’m going to use the wort temp to control the fermentation fridge temp, it should keep the initial temp increase...
