What does the boiler look like after transferring, when you have used a shit load of 100% Cocoa powder ?
A chocolate sludge fest.

I'm reminded of a colonoscopy video I saw on TV. :blink:
 
Cripes Doc, now I know what you were talking about! That's serious stuff. I will definitely be keen to hear how this one turns out. Gotta get through the other 15 cubes first though I suppose!
 
here is my last brew, I tried numerous things to filter the trub but two piece of S/S gauze from a camping shop formed around the pick up gave excellent flow. best $3 Ive ever spent!

My latest brew from yesterday.
It's a sort of an English Old or ESB, don't really know or care about the style.

EKG plugs and Styrian pellets.

The first time I ever used my old cheap arsed system it was a great success! No flowers tho, was scared of blockages! Pics of full and empty boiler, using a single element I ratted out of an old kettle, did the job but took around 40 mins to bring wort to the boil...

Really loving the Termimesh screen... pellets or flowers, it works really well. I even have a 12" circle of it under my 9" false bottom in my mash tun... I'm getting exceptionally clear wort into the kettle now
 
Must have had a couple too many while brewing yesterday. drained the kettle and had 162g of hops staring back at me.
