    _wallace_'s Sales - Southside Brisbane

    Not for me, for my brother. I bought one for him from gumtree, exact same set up, took it to get it filled and the bottle had a crack, not real happy about it. Wouldn't mind a second one myself.

    recycling milled grain powder

    I've used Munich II in my sourdoughs, iirc 50 to 100g to make up 600g flour. Gives a malty flavour and fires up the starter ( i add all the malt to the starter ). Not tried it in my pizza dough, but with the oven at 400-450 C it might be prone to burning.

    RO water and harsh bitterness

    40L out is a pretty big error, I'd be looking at why and fixing I'd also finish sparging at 1.010 at the most. Add some acid to your total sparge water to adjust pH 5.5 ( at sparge temp ), then when you finish sparging at 1.010 you can add the leftover sparge water to the kettle to get your...

    RO water and harsh bitterness

    Agree with the above, tannin extraction in your mash starts above pH 5.8. Start checking your mash pH. Finished beer should be @ pH 4 to 4.5.

    Filtering Water.. which unit to buy ? RO or 3 Stage

    I bought one of his RO units for my surgery, ( steam injection autoclaves need really pure water ) about 10 years ago, still going, with membranes replaced of course. I needed a booster pump to increase pressure, but I'm on tank water, you still may need one. If you are just using it for brewing...

    What's your best mash efficiency?

    Nothing ***** me more than getting stuck recirculation ( have a RIMS 3V ) . Last saison I must have run the grain through the mill 3X instead of the usual 2 because the ****** got stuck at least a million times, despite a whole flock of rice gulls being added along the way.Absolute shitload of...

    Please Explain.. 50% loss to evaporation

    get your thermometer checked, 90C isn't boiling. 1.060 @ 13L if diluted with 3L water will give 1.049, was 16L your target end of boil ? Did you let the trub settle after the boil ( or whirlpool ) ? If so how much did you leave in the kettle ? edit: was your gravity correct pre boil ?

    Starter sanitation necessary?

    You don't need a sink to cool it in. Just boil in your flask with some foil on the top and set aside until cool enough to pitch.
