First brew day was a shocker. Milled the grain too fine and the water wouldn't flow through the grain bed. So after stuffing around with it ended up with a tiny bit of grain in the kettle. After I finished up there was so much scorching on the element. So after all that probably end up on the...

I didn't realise it was that limiting... Was planning for get to 2 cornies plus losses i.e 43 litres. Thanks for the targets @Lionman did you have your power settings for boil? Other have similar numbers?

For those using the 50lt, what evap rate, efficiency did you get for a ~43lt batch? Probably help if you knew the power setting you used for the boil too. Thanks in advance edit: will be using the jacket too for continuity

So I'm having a little trouble working how big I need the fridge to be. @Meddo what's the internal width and depth of yours? looks like a good fit? Setup looks good @Hubert!

Sodium percabonate as directed by the manual

Just got a Guten and cleaning it out. After ramping to 90° and then cleaning I've got some marks on the element. Any idea what it is/how to fix it/if it's a problem?

You guys are legends, thanks for the help! I'm also looking for a fridge suitable for the spike, so pictures would be great.

@Hubert I saw that you were doing double batches. I was just looking at the volumes of the CF10 and it seems a little tight for 2 cornies, trub and krausen. Had any problems?

I could never get a sturdy option for handles on my 300mm portable keg dispenser. I had some left over kitchen bench top that I used as the base, so it's quite heavy. The square panel idea looks like a much better solution, especially if you wanted to dispense multiple kegs at the same time...

Great! Thanks for the feedback! I was thinking the gas manifold bundle and racking arm (not 100% sure if the racking arm is necessary). Then get the equivalent of the closed pressure transfer kit and other TC fittings and barb's off Ali/eBay. I might just transfer to the keg to carb as I've...

50lt yeh?

Can I ask what was the introductory price on the unit when it came out?

Thanks for the quick reply! Sucks you had to tip the second batch! But still some positive news, especially with them willing to post a new lid at their own expense. Sadly I've moved to Melbourne. But I might still be able to bring some stuff back. I'll have to sort it out once my trip is...

@Meddo @Hubert 6 months down the track how's the Spike units going? Might be heading to the states in a bit for work so will look at getting a CF10 sent to my hotel and bring it back on the plane. Keen to hear if it still gets the thumbs up!

Horrible news! Did they say they would fix the unit?

Hi, I'm really interested in the brau, fermenter fermenting fridge and temp controller. Would you split your sale? Cheers

I've emailed and messaged lael a few times with no response. Not sure if he's still around the forums??? Lael!! I need a new control board! Helpppp

I'm not as sold, especially given the actual cost was closer to 400 before keg king doubled the price

ok thanks, looks like it's on the back burner then. Do they have specials or sales on frequently?

Does anyone know how long the "introductory" special will be on for? Cant see any mention of the reduced price on their website
