Currently brewing on a Grounded Brewtech controller and kettle which is perfect for my brewing needs when making 5+ gallon batches. I am hoping to start brewing smaller batches (2-3 gallons) of higher ABV beers, but I think my current system is too big to accommodate that.
Hoping for some feedback on the following:
Thanks in advance!
Hoping for some feedback on the following:
- Is there any harm (either to the element or the beer) in brewing 3 gallon batches in a 15 gallon kettle?
- Should I get a second, smaller pot and element combo to use when brewing these smaller batches? Most 240v elements I have seen are long so a smaller kettle may not be possible
- I am assuming I cannot use a 120v element on my 240v controller. Is this a correct assumption?
- Would be getting something like a Digiboil/Anvil Foundry make more sense over a new pot/element combination? I would ideally like to take advantage of the brewing controller and brewing pump I already have set up for my normal system.
Thanks in advance!
