When boiling the hop's in the pressure cooker do you get hop build up on the side of the pressure cooker

I already have 2000 watt 120 volt boilcoil and don't use a controller with it, if I get a 3750 watt coil will be able to use it without a controller or will it boil to violently. Was planing on putting it in/on a 44qt bayou classic.

I have the 2000 watt in a 5.5 gallon pot and it will boil 5 gal's but it is a very slow boil 3/4 of a gallon a hour top's.

If it were me I would do a 5 to 7 gallon sparge. Dunk of coarse.

Why does just moving kettle losses up and down effect brew house number's so much?

Got it.

Given if all numbers are the same,if my boil off is say 2 gallons a hour vr's 1 gallon would mash efficiency be better using 2 gallon a hour boil off. Since I'm using more water.

I'm a smasher.I use one for all. Citra

So you just pulled the bag out.Might want to stick with that. When I tried to drain with bag in cooler and no false bottom/bazooka it would not drain at all.

What ya got in the bottom a bazooka screen or false bottom.

Thank's that's what thought it is loaded.

What would the optimal grain to water ratio be for biab full volume no sparge? Or is this a loaded ?

Thank's I will proly just go with what the calc tells me to use water wise and see what happens. Going to brew up a 2.5 ipa using 7 or 8 ounces of Citra.

Is this calc based using pellet hops or fresh/dried/whole hops.

I have put bag/basket in cold water grain in bag/basket in cold water and heated it up to mash temp did not notice any ill effects. As a matter a fact it was the best batch I have made to date.10% Citra IPA

Does Lacto have a smell.

PBW worked for me with my bags back in the day. I use a basket now just clean with hose and boil.

Trying this tonight just started mashing at 152 going to let her sit all night I put two blankets and two heavy winter coats over kettle, will see what she's holding in the AM.

74 is going to up the price some but don't know how much.

You can order a press plate for 30.00 and change or make your own press plate.
