As you predicted - didn’t work! Basically being pushed against the edge of the boiler closes off the gaps in the coil, which stops the flow. The false bottom made the problem worse! By sealing the top of the coil. Tomorrow I will try and alternative

I’ve heard that too, there is a lot of noise on the Advanced Grainfather group re: the false bottom (which I ordered from you guys) and I did a trial last week using it and a bazooka screen - it work very well indeed! A little too well, the pump wasn’t getting enough flow during the mash -...

Thx for that! I actually fitted a Robobrew valve, but I have heard the other type Lauter helix can block up and I’m a bit concerned about how close the coils actually are. So I am going to do a trial. I tried a bazooka last week so worst case scenario I can revert back to that or the Robobrew...

Here are the modifications I have made to my Grainfather. All parts came from the Robobrew V3

Lauter helix fitted! Can’t wait to try it

I agree totally with all your points! And normally would use the other stuff. I just wanted to use something different this time! Cheers

Hi guys, just some info re: Stellar Soda. I rewatched the video and read the label multiple times, but there were two extremely important safety messages missing. 1 Never add water to dry product, it will cause an exothermic reaction and can explode! Even spillages of dried powder should never...

Parts ordered and sent! Can’t wait for the Lauter helix to be back in stock!

Thx mate

Thx mate - sorry they call theirs A , E etc so what would a male 1/2 with a barb called? Sorry when I used camlocks in a past life they were as described as you said - 3 inch, 4 inch etc I just looked up the standard for camlocks so what I really need is they type used on the arm and the part...

Hi guys, I’m thinking of buying some Robobrew components for a non Robobrew. What size camlock fitting is used on the recirculating pipe! In other words if I wanted to fit a counterflow chiller to the camlock what size would I need? Also looking at the false bottom replacement, which would...

Good morning all, I have decided that those with greater knowledge are probably right. But since I do brew some small (5 litre) batches and now that I have a 9 litre keg/ fermenter, I will continue to use the process! In fact I put down a Saison yesterday and it’s doing nicely. I have enjoyed...

My only other mod might be to replace the T piece with a manifold which would allow me to run 3 kegs on the one gas cylinder two using the regulators for the kegs on tap and a third line for carbonation. But in all honesty I’m happy with what I have now and with winter approaching I think my...

Oh I know he does! Cheers mate

I have been thinking about what WEAL said (& the life of BRIEN clip). Not quite clear who the sarcasm was actually aimed at? I just wanted to clarify, I like TRYING techniques I have not tried before and see what difference it makes! I call this experimenting! I did actually work for a company...

Wow!

I did a small batch ( 5litres) Citra IPA in an old converted 9 litre keg. Let the pressure build up to 10 Psi day 5 cold crashed day 6 ready to drink! I did transfer it to a 5 litre keg for storage reasons, and it tasted fine! I’m no judge and a guru could possibly find faults but it was a great...

Back to inline regulators, I received the second one today and this is how I decided to set it up. I preset the regulators outside of the kegerator ( didn’t really think the gauge needed to be permanently attached) but by setting up the way I have done, I can quickly remove the attached...

theSeekerr - parts arrived today from a Kegland and I did exactly as you said, I didn’t like the idea of the pressure gauge inside the kegerator so I set the regulator the way you described and it works that well I might consider ordering a few more! Cheers mate & thx Kegland!

No not quite mate :)
