Hi All!
Here is my story: I have brewed all grain for a long period. The equipment I was used to use had from gas burners, conical fermenter to dedicated fridge. I had to sell everything because I was moving to another country (Canada).
And now I am settle up and want to get back to brew. The problem is my building's amount of regulations. I can't use a propane burner. I can't use anything that consumes more than 15 amps. And my stove (glass top electric), that thing will never boil 20 liters (my goal).
The first thing I thought was spending (a lot) more money and buy a grainfather but the whole setup would cost something around 3.5K and this is too much for me (including the fermenter and the glycol tank), and even if was kin to spend this much money, the equipment is 220V and my apartment is 110.
Yeah, my life sucks. =(
I want to do a kind of brainstorm. Is there anyone else in the same situation? what you guys are using?
So what I need is to go electric. I am thinking in use sous vide (problems with caramelization, maybe?) to the mashing and a turkey fryer(or something like that) to boil but still have no much idea about fermentation.
Since I want to use a conical and control the temperature, maybe the maybe the fermentassaurus and brewJacket immersion-pro, but I am not really sure if this brewjacket will work as they say.
I don't want to spend lots of money, but I also want to control as much as possible to assure the final quality.
What do you guys think? any thoughts, or better ideas?
Cheers, and thanks!
