When you have a good cold break you can let the trub settle out on the bottom before tilting the Braumeister to get the most out of it.There's always quite a lot of wort left with the trub in the bottom after a Braumeister brew. Do you guys strain it, leave it or do you let it go into your FV?

PBW is your friend, I soak my BM in around 10 litres of mix at 65 deg for an hour or overnite if it suits and then I get one of those dish mops that have a plastic handle and the mop part is like strands of coarse wool and give it a swish around the element paying attention to the back and undersides, then I rinse the BM, undo the pump and clean the impeller and then leave it to dry.beerkench said:Another Braumeister question chaps: How do you get yours clean?

I give every thing a wipe over with a chux or a scrubbing brush to get the crud off. A quick rinse then I fill it up with water, put the malt pipe in and everything that gets sticky into it. Run it at 50 deg C with a capful of sodium percabonate for 30 min or so. Rinse it off and clean the pump. My unit has done close to 100 brews and still look great.beerkench said:Another Braumeister question chaps: How do you get yours clean?

This. From one end to another and back.tiprya said:--- I get a cloth and wrap it around the element and feed it around to get any grime off.
