cracking grain

[Ducatiboy stu]

Options.

1. Buy a grain mill and live happily ever after. It is one bit of equipment that will be still going after your dead. They dont generaly wear out

2. Buy pre cracked grain from whatever supplier you choose. Most of them can even make a complete recipie pack to your recipie and crack the lot. This means you are not left with spare grain sitting around

3. Buy bulk amounts of cracked grain, say 1kg lots of spec grains like crytals, choc, Roast Barley etc and buy a cheap kitchen vac sealer and split them up, vac seal them and store them in the cupboard.

4. Keep using the thermo mix and get relatively poor results

My wife got one. Just was wondering if it was possible. Cheers

... have you read the thread?

Very old thread but for the avoidance of all doubt.... DO NOT use a thermo to crack grain.

First all grain brew and having to stir the mash is a prick as the filter is too blocked for the recirculation on the brewzilla to work. Lifting the mash tun out is going to be a bitch....
