Efficiency will be effected by your equipment, your crush, your technique and even the maths you use to calculate it. I used to batch sparge and with my system this was inefficient. I use SS braid - I had a small length of it in the mash tun and then upgraded to 1.5 metres looped. This...

my perspective on cleaning plastic fermentors once you have a bug in them they are basically not worth using again the plastic is porous and bugs can lurk in there whatever you throw at them. plastic fermentors are imho basically disposable items you can try using them again but the risk...

I hate to be a dissenter but the important thing in getting a nice chocolate flavour is not the fancy malts - you do need darker malts of course but - the trick is in getting a nice fruity ale yeast. The chocolate flavour is a mix of roastyness and fruit - the best dark chocolates have a...

Hi ya all just thought i would share my experience using liquid yeast and some of the problems I have had Firstly I have to say that using liquid yeast has produced the best beers I have made. Liquid yeast seems to give a beer an incredible freshness and zing that you just don't seem to get...

Hey Sammus I have a pressure cooker - its a hawkins brand - called the bigboy - its about 20 Litres - works a treat not all brands go all the way up to 15 psi - hawkins brand definitely does though Its aluminium and I was lucky enough to get it really cheap -I posted a picture here a while...

The wort doesn't burn onto the elements the one little problem though is that you get protein coating the elements. Not a problem for 1 or 2 boils but after this the protein starts insulating the element from the water and overheats the element. I have found that my elements need constant...

I have an electric kettle but don't have a PID I have 2 kettle elements inthe boiler. sometimes I use 1, sometimes both I also have a 'stove' controller that can be attached to either element - technically its called an 'infinite control' or simmerstat but its just a mechanically timed...

Hi ya all little problem 2 of my kegs won't seal at the top anymore. I had them a while no issues - they were not reconditioned. When i put pressure on - the gas escapes past the main lid seal. :( I figure the rubber has become hard and wont create a seal - no big deal - but its not...

Recipe looks pretty good except for 1 thing too much hops and at the wrong time hefes need less than 20ibu bitterness. The variety of hops you have are fine but you also don't need flavour or aroma hops for a hefe - a hefe is all about the yeast. So I would just do a 60minute hop adition...

2 simple answers 1) use dehusked dark malts as above (but some ordinary roast barley and black malt is nice in the mix) 2) add the dark grains at the end of the mash . then just sparge (I prefer batch when using this method) I use this method every time for my stouts and they come out...

When my last hydrometre decieded it would give bungy jumping a go without the cord I went and had a look at these brigalow numbers - did the bad thing and ripped it open in the shop before purchase and noticed the limited range - if you read the packet it says its a 'bottling hydrometre' -...

Hi ya HStB this is a very nice yeast but it is definitely not an all purpose yeast. I have made some very nice beers with it but there are a few things to keep in mind it is a very well balanced and mild flavour profile but also very dominant - keep the bitterness lowish the flavour profile...
