    Brew in a Basket - 82L pot with 56L malt pipe

    one thing to consider with your pot sizes, if you want to allow room for adding an element look into how much room you actually need so the element has enough room between the base of the outer pot and the base of the grain basket. This depends on how you do your recirc, if you do it through the...

    Multi-Purpose 50L SS heat-preserving pail - uses?

    While rummaging through a sellers ebay store I came across this. It feels like it should be useful but I think the double walls actually complicate use - that is you can't drill anymore holes through the wall easily...

    cutting the lip off a 54L pot to reduce height to use as 1V grain bask

    thanks fellas, some very interesting ideas here. I'm now thinking about just going down a pot size from 56L to 40L, it should still be good for up to 18kg of grain. All other SS pots I came across have thick bases which make the grinding a real chore, this should do the job...

    cutting the lip off a 54L pot to reduce height to use as 1V grain bask

    cutting the pot would give me option 1 - have the recirc coming back in through the outer pot and allowing the lid to also sit on outer pot. option 2 is not cutting inner pot, and have recirc coming through inner port only allowing lid to cover inner pot.

    cutting the lip off a 54L pot to reduce height to use as 1V grain bask

    good question. once the elements are installed and with some clearance between the elements and the grain basket the inner pot sticks out this much:

    cutting the lip off a 54L pot to reduce height to use as 1V grain bask

    Hi All, Considering chopping off around 50mm off the top of a pot - it's the inner pot for my 100ltr system. This is so there is adequate room above the elements (2 x 4500w) - around 25 to 30mm above the elements. The bottom of the inner basket will be at about 90mm from the bottom: I plan...

    Growler Upgrade - adding carb cap for counterfilling/extra carbing

    cheers claypot. yep - working well! Always good getting a nice 'pop' when you crack the lid on a growler! I'm not actually force carbing, just using it to really purge out any O2 and provide some CO2 under pressure to maintain the existing carbonation. Around 50kpa is what I'm going for. The KK...

    Growler Upgrade - adding carb cap for counterfilling/extra carbing

    ok, very happy with the way this worked out. The 5mm ID was much easier to work than the 4mm to get the schrader valve over the tube! I'm done! Thanks for all the feedback and suggestions. :beerbang: :beerbang:
