Just out curiosity why did you request the full width falsie instead of the standard one?
I particularly want the maximum possible surface area on my false bottom to ensure maximum flow rates through my RIMS. Plus I am more theoretically sure of how the dynamics of a flat flase bottom work - and I just like them better. Domed false bottoms look kinda funny.
Hi ThirstyBoy,
Love the new mash tun, looks great.
IN your last picture what are you using to heat your kettle? Looks just like a little gas burner. How did it go boiling?
It was 50/50 - it got the 12L boiling alright - but it took a while - and it was quite sensitive to wind. No good at all if there was a breeze. Inside, it would have been sufficient, but thats as far as I would go. I used it for half a dozen brews and then upgraded to a three ring burner... which burned a hole in my bench and had major excesses of grunt for the small pot. But on the bright side - I am still using it for up to 40L batches he small burner still gets a run when I am doing decoction or cereal mashes.
