Double mash one day later.
Double mash one day later.
Had anyone tried getting a brew started and then adding another wort to it?
Like this ...
Day 1. Brew A. Mash, boil & pitch.
Day 2. Brew B. Mash, boil & chill.
Then add it to the brew A fermenter.

Not tried it, but I can't see why it wouldn't work as a means of producing a large (double) batch. By the time you add the second batch of wort, the first should be well into fermentation; almost like a big starter.
Let us know how you get on.

Re: Double mash one day later.
That was my thinking. Thanks
A very easy way to making bigger batches. I mash overnight, so it makes a double brew easy.
Triple brew?

A very large number of microbreweries do this.
Re: Double mash one day later.
My fermenters are not large enough for a double batch, but I can fit 30L in them which is more than I can normally produce with my GF30.
So I make batch stronger than required for 23/25L and liquor back to get to 30L; usually adding extra sparge liquor before I cool/transfer
Only one mash/brew day and plenty of beer/ale

Re: Double mash one day later.
Is the plan to use it as a fermenter?

Re: Double mash one day later.
Yup.. Might have a measure first. Make sure there is enough headspace.
