you got it. watch your pot closely for boilovers, especially when adding the hops. to avoid / minimise the chance of this occuring turn the heat down once the pot comes to the boil to just maintain it and then add the hops in small increments i.e. a pinch at a time although, you could...

say you were going to add 500g LDM & 500g dextrose, just take the 200g LDM out of the 500 total. don't expose the LDM to steam or it'll clump up and stick like poo to a blanket. boil it up, add it to the fermentor then add the blonde kit and the rest of your LDM & dex & top up with cold water...

bring to the boil 200g of light dried malt in 2L of water - add 30-50g of cascade and boil for 10 minutes. this is a flavour addition add this to the fermenter then top up to volume with all your other bits. strain if you like, or don't worry about it

consider making your pid portable so you can use it to cook your food and control your mash (not at the same time though). a ramp / soak PID will automagically control your mash steps...you do need to step mash meat though, right ;) i have a similar model to the one you linked to, it has the...

i'm on/off reading through a bunch of these classic beer style books. they took about 10 business days to arrive from blighty http://www.bookdepository.co.uk/search?sea...p;search=search lots of the quantities are listed in imperial irritating measurements though. can not wait for that crazy...

It's not a robinox, and i'm not sure about the warranty, got it from ebay (dnss_hospitality) in december 2010 and looks similar to the handy import ones. I have contacted the seller to see what they say, but i'm not holding my breath Converting to electric is not really an option at the...

The base of my 98L pot has started to delaminte. Scared the jesus out of me when one side of the pot suddenly listed with 50L of boiling wort in there. I also imagine this gap is making my kettle seriously inefficient Do i get it welded / brazed back up or try to fully separate it? I imagine...

measure your volumes once and go to town with a centre punch, or a number punch could also try a donkey punch?

I have found that whole hops just sit on the surface, bobbing around, teasing me to dunk them under...but not after blending. Just making sure all the lupulins can escape into my beer And i thought thats what all the cool kids were doing these days?

Blended about 140g of cascade and 70g of chinook as sub 10min additions in a pale ale yesterday. I had to throw away a pack of each as they were picked too early and smelt like dry grass, even after blending ended up huffing the jug for about 5 minutes before rinsing it out with wort :icon_drool2:

hope you are adding cheat codes...something like UP, UP, DOWN, LEFT, UP, RIGHT to get a 5% discount at nev's place?

hey punkin don't forget you can ferment in the cube, and if you have the jerry style cubes you can sink a knee into the side while nipping up the lid to only have 21L in there and i have found it easiest to siphon from the big hole using beer line straight into the beer out disconnect (hold in...
