Hey guys, had a nightmare brewday yesterday and have ended up with 40L of wort at 1.026 OG... pretty keen to bump this up to at least 1.035 (it was meant to be a session ale of sorts).
the only thing I can get my hands on is the coopers brew enhancer. Is that going to be ok to add at this...
Thanks Wobbly

Looks like I am actually going to go...

Are you sure about that? I know the element was on (via the controller), because I could see the bubbles forming on it and it was producing some heat, it just seemed under powered while connected to the controller...
Just recently (have done one brew) started playing around with a makeshift herms setup using my old copper chiller as the coil. Brewday didn't go too bad, accept I had no way to automate the control of my HLT temperature.
Initially I had planned on using my Inkbird ITC-308 which I normally use...

My cascade, from September till last week. At one stage there you can see some bug got to them and I thought they were gone for a while, we went on holidays, came back and they had fought back by themselves.

Worried that the mold/fungus might cause...
