Thanks Dicko. I will go and dig on the other forum accordingly as I pursue answers to the many questions that spring to mind. Thanks for the tip on how to do the full volume mash, Cervantes.dicko said:Over on the other forum it has been quoted on several occasions that a full volume mash does not lose any efficiency percentage points.
This method negates the need for a second vessel, but if it was me I would try both ways just to satisfy my doubts and curiosity.
I am intrigued by zoigl's determination of a 3 l systematic difference between the measured volume and that indicated by the tie rod. Think I will calibrate my 5 l pitcher on my hops scale and see for myself.
One final silly question if I may. I have a circuit capable of the amp draw but notice that the wall plug gets quite warm during heating and when I unplug it the prongs are too hot to touch to skin. I am concerned that my plastic wall socket might melt though it hasn't yet in the 1/2 hour test runs I have done so far. Is this normal ?
