So finally did my first brew with the guten, used 7.2kg of grain and the 50L definitely handled it well. Post mash gravity came in incredibly low, so i am guessing that this was refractometer operator error. Got pretty close to target, with a higher volume and a lower OG, still a bit of profile...

Right, got my replacement recirc arm fitted. Did another test run and clean yesterday with no leaks. So i reckon i am finally ready to go. Anyone got any general guidelines around malt pipe overflow pipe size to kg grain? as in, roughly how many kg of grain does the small overflow pipe hold...

Hey everyone, classic long time lurker first time poster here. I'm looking at getting a 50L unit to streamline brew days. I have read through most of the thread and i was just wondering what people's experiences have been with brewing "smaller" batches on the 50? Are there any restrictions or...
