Did a second 20 litre batch on the BM yesterday, a Porter with a 5,1kg grain bill. 25 litre strike water and five for sparging and got an OG of 1.065 with a 60 min boil, wich means my efficiency was at 81%. My goal was 1.063 so I was real happy. I stopped the program once by pressing the two...

So did my first brew today on the 50 litre with the following recipe: The total amount of water was 39 litres from which i saved 7 litres for sparging. I'm not sure where I went wrong but my OG was way of, hitting 1.046 instead of of my planed 1.066. I used the preset mash schedule but...

Great Divide Yeti, just as good I remebered. Did a clone back in september (small 12l batch) wich tasted almost as good as the original, just not that much hop aroma.

Brewdog Tokyo* 18,2%. OK, it's 23.32 here in Finland and the temperature is -12,9 C. You have to ask yourself, what the hell were our ancestors thinking when they settled here? Sure miss Sydney!

Uuuh yeah! Just payed for my 50l Braumeister yesterday and it will be shipped to me week 12, also got the 20l maltpipe and chiller. Can't wait to get my hands on it! Allready started designing the first brew wich is gonna be a 10,5% DIPA with about a 100 IBUs.

I'm looking at ordering the 50l BM and have a couple of questions. I mostly brew higher gravity beers (1.060 - 1.110) with a batch size of 15-18 litres which is at the top of what my current cooler-mashtun system can do. I would like to be able to brew about 25 litre batches, so the 20l BM is...
