    I meant join the forum and ask there, you are more likely to get some geeky dude with a tape measure running over to his(/her?) BM and measuring it immediately, much as i have just done, it's 3cm from the bottom of the malt pipe to the ridge where the bottom screen sits. allow a tiny bit extra...

    K meta sanitizer

    assuming you mean acidified, as with citric acid? i can see no reason it shouldn't work. (disclaimer, i am not a chemist, and have never run kill rate trials with k-meta!) in my opinion it's far more unpleasant than starsan/iodophor, and much more of a pain to weigh out each time, and i hate the...

    reverse circulation rims

    stuck mashes are still possible in the braumeister... unfortunately. you can get channeling and in the worst case fountains where a whole lot of the wort squeezes through one channel and sprays out the top. in my few years of upside-down BM mashing i've never had a fountain but have seen videos...

    Drive your malt mill using a Kitchenaid

    one and counting it was a breeze though, even on brittle crystal malt.

    Drive your malt mill using a Kitchenaid

    It's just what the title says, really. For whatever reason my cordless drill won't turn my jsp malt mill, i guess it doesn't have the torque. So i though why not attach it to the auxiliary port of my kitchenaid mixer. The adapter for the port is incredibly high tech, i sold the patent to NASA...

    when the BM first came out people (on this very forum!) complained that it was a machine that made beer for you at the push of a button. as if you didn't make recipes, grind malt, dough in, decide mash regimes, design hopping regimes and techniques, clean up, sanitize, and most importantly...

    hey raulsn, in addition to checking the voltage and contacting speidel directly, you can post problems like this on the new-ish BM forum where others may have had similar experiences. https://forum.braumeisters.net/ those are some seriously slow heating times, definitely not normal.

    How to prevent Brett carryover in a keg?

    i only just recently learned that some people don't break down their kegs after each use! some friends had a persistent wild yeast infection and when we broke down their technique it turned out their keg cleaning regime involved some lame attempt at pushing sanitizer through the dip tube. it's...

    if i remember from somewhere (lost in the middle) in the thread years ago, they changed the pump model at some point. no idea if the 20 and 50s use / used the same pump though...

    Speidel Braumeister (brewmaster)

    mike i totally agree with you. you bring up one thing that i hear a lot (from people who haven't used a BM) and which bugs me, so i'll engage in a little teambuilding rant, this idea that the BM an automatic beer generator and that you are cutting out the craft of brewing by using one. these...
