We commonly use hop pellets in NZ so the Grainfather is used to that sort of thing. There is a good pump filter so you don't need to worry about hop debris. We also don't use hop bags or hop spiders generally at Grainfather, but that is of course up to your personal preference. We feel you get a...

Heya, We have thought about this and are also looking into this. Once again though too early to confirm anything on that. But keep the feedback coming :)

Yes this is 7 Gal in there at the moment (for 5 Gal final volume). The head space is for if you'd prefer to make more (6 Gal final volume) and also to avoid boil overs.

Heya, I know you've already pledged and thanks so much :)! But still want to answer your questions about the boil. Any concerns about a light boil would be for a boil when all you can see is some bubbles rising to the top. This is a light boil compared to our other units but not a light boil...

Just thought I'd answer one of these questions here as a few have asked the same question: The US units will have the element variation switch like the NZ version. The difference will be the wattage - 1600/500w.

Please also see the Kickstarter link for written info on it in the FAQ. Please use the info together with the video. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/884310658/the-grainfather-all-in-one-all-grain-brewing-syste Thanks

We will still come, but not sure on the timing. Will do what we can to get there as soon as possible! Sign up to our newsletter via www.grainfather.com to get the news as we have it.

Hi TallDan, - Efficiency depends on what you recipe is and how you brew. You can alter the efficiency (that's the beauty of it). Efficiency is purely for the number crunchers to make sure more beer is produced at a lower cost. Because you can alter steps or ingredients as you brew the...

Hello HopRodGR You maintain consistent temperatures with the control box by manually inputting your desired step mashing temperatures. The unit has an element variation switch which means you can swap between. See this link http://media.wix.com/ugd/e8b8c7_9e7c95eeec064601a0b002f255b93197.pdf...

No worries. Thanks for the advice, I will pass it on :)

FatDragon, fair question! - The first big difference is the price (should be around $890 USD), we wanted to make an all in one all grain option more accessible to the homebrewer. We also include the counter flow wort chiller. - The chiller is a counter flow chiller rather than immersion. So...

YeastMode, we will have a warehouse and support etc from Portland, OR. Stores who sell it will also be able to help. There are also reviews made by customers on YouTube (of their own doing not linked with us).
