The mash is a RIMS. We recirculate our mash through an inline heating element.

OK sorry I'm dumb

boy, it would really suck to have that setup

 

[Aust1227]

It is a fun system to play with. Gives great flexibility in any weather to keep exactly the temps we need for mashing. The electric is far superior to gas in many ways (noise, cost, effeciency, safety) too!

Are you looking to be mostly automated or do you want to do it the old fashioned way?

If you don't want to have automation you could be up and running in a weekend.

...you just suck.
