Ok has been on for long enough....... willing to split now........ message me with interests in components and offers.....

Panicked order placed....... Good luck on your new venture should you take it Yob.

Thanks mb. Color coded hoses was more only for the initial set up when I was doing the hoses but I like them and think I will leave them as is, makes it nice and easy. Only a couple of hose changes for recirc through CFC with return ice water back to esky. It looks from the pici that both...

Maiden brew on rig today. All electric 3v system. Cooler mash tun (about to be upgraded to 50l pot). First brew was a nice and simple SMaSH, split into two before boil. Built control panel based on Electric Brewery. 4500w elements running off a 20amp supply. Very happy with how system went for...

Keen for splits on spec malt but won't be home until January and am on NW Coast. Will pick up on the slack if there is room but if there is someone that can't get in on it due to lateness/availability etc I can bow out to make room for them.

Hi All, Going to run my 3v all grain electric setup for the first time in the next few days and was looking at running a SMaSH and splitting into two before the boil. What are peoples thoughts on the following: 6.75kg Marris Otter 80% eff (thereabouts: going to dial in and run some numbers on...

I just bought a better bottle from Grain and Grape online. Shipping was expensive but not ridiculous, price of living in Tas....... Also going to buy a couple of 15l demijohn from my local/not so local hbs when I get home from work in a couple of weeks.

Why is that barls? If I went that way I was going to go un-ported anyways just for ease of sanitation, any other reason for you barls? *edit: bloody auto correct

What are peoples thoughts? Looking at about 15-16l into primary in a temp controlled fridge. I have a 30l plastic fermentor at present and want to reduce the headspace. Will do lagers come winter and would like to rack to secondary. Choices of demijohn, carboy or the better botte from...

I am born and bred Tasmanian and unfortunately I have to live and work away from my family for 5 weeks at a time due to the nature of my industry. I could do the same job closer to home but for 50k a year less and mind numbing boredom to follow suit, whereas I choose to somewhat sacrifice family...

Thanks people. I was wondering about the heat pads at the bottom instead of the heat belt. Am going to build a shelf at the bottom to make a bit sturdier. Pretty much just a couple of supports in each corner and utilise the existing wire shelf. Nice to know that there is bugger all loss from the...

Just scored a second hand fridge off dumbtree for a grand total of $90 and this is the last area of control I need to setup. Tested the fridge and all but froze a glass of water when turned right down (or up depending on your look on life) so works like a charm. Have a fridge mate wired up...

Thanks mb, took a bit of effort and a few choice words but got there in the end. Only one small kink on bottom of front left coil that I put there when I was working on getting it away from the element. Managed the last turn to the connection using a tube bender, had to otherwise I would have...

Thanks Wiggman and mb-squared for your input. Have gone for the 1/2" copper and managed to cram about 14-15m into my pot utilising the deadspace. I realise the coils restricts flow but really didn't want the hex to be any higher in the pot and wanted to utilise the same holes from previous hex...

Thanks Wiggman, will have to invest in some insulation down the track and just ordered 2 x 4500w elements, currently running 3500w on a 20 amp dedicated brewing circuit. Will look at changing out the herms for copper depending on the price of it at the local hardware today. Alternatively could...

Just tried and 7 above seems about right. Thanks mb for that insight, helped heaps! Now just have to wait about 5 weeks before I can brew a SMaSH
