Freddy and Andrew, What are you guys using to measure your wort volume? I didn't see any sight glass or Kettle markings.

I order a Z from Amazon about 10 days ago. The next day I saw the kickstarter and cancelled my Amazon order and went with the refurb. Then yesterday, I found one on Craigslist that had never been used (still with film on it and plug on rotating arm) for $1000, and got a 2.5 gallon keg thrown in...

Thanks! Good to know you can change the temp. The manual says that you cannot. I understand about altering the recipe regarding body, but whether you want your beer more dry or sweet is certainly affected by mash temp. I have not purchased one yet, just trying to get all questions answered...

Hello, Are you all using the high efficiency mash program when brewing over .060 OG beers? How do you adjust body when using this program since you can't adjust temp? This seems like a major drawback. Would it be better to use single infusion and just increase the mash time? Any thoughts...

Hello, how are you all adding adjuncts such as salt, sugar, cocoa powder, honey, syrups, coffee, etc. During the boil?

Glad to see you are still enjoying your system! I have a couple of questions I hope you don't mind answering: I see you have a whirlpool port. Does it not stick out into the kettle and interfere with your basket? Do you get a good whirlpool? I'm assuming the port above your main drain...

Really appreciate the response! I am waiting for CO Brew to get back with me on a couple of questions, then it's time to make a decision!

You may want to check back with CO Brew. They have a different setup now for mash that doesn't use tubing, along with a solid side basket. I like this setup, but I haven't received info yet as to grain amounts. I'd like to use their hardware with the BB controller.

Freddy, how are you enjoying your setup? Would you do anything differently if you did it again? Any issues with any size batch and OG? The placement of your thermowell ok? Do you like your recirculation setup? What efficiency are you getting? I'm ready to pull the trigger, but I just...

Makes sense. Good work!

Freddy, loving this setup. I will likely replicate. If so, I will fly to PA and buy you a beer for having done all the research! Question: I do like the squeezing capability of the brew boss COFI - do you plan on squeezing the grains at all, and if so, how would you do it? Also, was there a...

Makes perfect sense. Thanks so much for the response! Please try to update as you progress!

FreddieMar3, I am very interested in your plans. Question - what would make it capable of also doing 5 gallon batches? What would be different than the Brew Boss?
