Looks like I've got everything ready except an IC, but I would like to make sure everything is ok and going to be efficient as possible.
Mash Tun
Coolbox with a capacity of approx 25 litres. First test showed a temperature drop of 4c over one hour. Test carried out with no grain, 1/3 full of water, extra insulation and the box was not at room temperature when strike water added. I'm happy with the results as the grain will help maintain a constant temperature.
HLT/Boiler
I'm going to use the boiler for liqour and boiling the wort. The boiler is similar to a burco boiler except it is an aluminium stockpot fired by gas. It has a capacity of 40-50 litres and fitted with a drum tap. The hopstopper is one of Garth's which sits on the bottom of the boiler via a t-piece and is very good at stopping rubbish coming through.
One problem is the 'dead space' at the bottom equates to around 6 litres
. The inside diameter is 43cm. Any ideas on how to increase the efficieny?Chiller
I am going to go with a double immersion chiller. Both of approx 10 meters with one inside the other ala Scooby except running seperately so the water is flowing through 10 as opposed to 20m.
FV
Going to use standard FV bins at present with a black binliner to prevent light hitting it.
Dispensing
Cornies, enough said
How does all this sound?
), increasing the brewlength is the way forward. So yesterday, I ordered a 100l stockpot from Nordic for my boiler. I also have a s/steel mash tun in the pipeline
