    Brutus 10 questions

    Hmm, I am not sure but the original Brutus 10 had some spacing between the rails. I don’t have the Brutus schematics but I believe there is ~2” space between each burner frame (the 12” by 12” burner space plus rails on each end). The overall length was ~48” plus the end rails width. I did...

    Williams stainless counterflow.

    First of all, I am no expert but here are my findings… I started with a homemade counterflow chiller and upgraded to a Chillzilla (very similar to the Copper Chillus Convolutus Counterflow). It did a great job cooling the wort and I was happy with the results. But then, I upgraded to a SS...

    Counter flow plate chilled

    I got one of the 40 plate chiller from Duda Diesel. That thing is amazing. I have use other type of counterflow chillers and so far this is the best. It took 5.5 gal for wort from +220F down to 63F in less than 4 1/2min (OK for the record, the incoming water was around 45F but I had the valve...
