Blichmann BrewEasy

[xredwood]

Anyone seen these? Seems like it would be very easy to DIY with an autosparge, urn, second pot or esky with false bottom and a couple ball valves. If my Braumeister clone fails this may have to be plan B!

The control/pump/chiller stand is very neat!

They are a pretty good bit of kit! Can not wait for ours to arrive!!

I wonder if the cost will come in under a BM?

Hammo will cheeky peak be getting this in? And have you had confirmation that a Australian version is being produced? Love doing fist pumps first thing in the morning.
Cheers Jameson

already up on their site go check it out

Looks like fun. Getting the grains out after the mash might be a little tricky if you're short, especially if you were using the 20 gallon kettles.

Start fist pumping mate! This thing is a work of art.!!
The brew easy stand is about 6 weeks away, then it will be approx 4 weeks after that for delivery. We won't worry about the 5 gal version, will just go for the 10 and 20.
It just uses the tower of power module which they have an Australian version.
Cheers!

Hey Fents.
Is that one of Jonos finished products or is it still the prototype?
Is a wicked looking bit if kit, very well made!

 

[jameson]

Bam only looking the tower of power controller module and a new mash tun. This time gives me time to rethink if I set up like there's or Hermes coil the hlt. Thinking heating the wort in the hlt would give faster temp rises rather than heat transfer through a Hermes coil.
Awesome stuff double fist pumps
Cheers Jameson

Hammo7,
I note they're claiming fairly mediocre efficiency- high 60's to low 70's, but I dare say that this is without sparge.
Can you confirm?

Hi Mate, yep sure is Jono's! (well mine, but you cant half tell jono built it eh )

Very well made indeed! I was the first to order one, so i know he made one prototype before mine for himself but he changed a fair bit of stuff on mine. Its so EASY to brew on. Controller has auto mode's where you can input specific mash regimes or you can just use manual mode.

Masters im only getting 65-68% eff on the above but you are right that is with no sparge, with a sparge it would sky rocket but grain is CHEAP and i like the extra time i save on no sparge.

You might want to give Jono the heads up Blichman are applying for a patent ... ahh it was posted here on AHB first anyway like most the good ****

North America certainly is coming up with innovative idea's for the home brew enthusiast. Similar, but not the same, idea here:

On sale for US$3060
( but cheaper than my williamswarn purchase!!)

How good is that BIAC concept? Be interesting to get some feedback on that unit.

 

[McFeast]

Top read guys. Cheers. I'm looking to upgrade to fill a 50l keg minimum each batch run. So will need to double everything. At the moment I'm on a single biab 40l urn. Which has been great but time to step it up. Blichmann is going to kill me dosh wise, but would love some of their gear. HERMS looks to be my way forward.

Cheers guys.

Does the Blichmann have US gas connections?

Yeah the blichman uses a gas burner with controlled solenoid, though they are going to release and electric model.
