Jim's Beer Kit

.95kg is 950g so is 10 times more than 95g

Done this a couple of times and not had a problem yet. Obviously it costs a bit more as the wort will have cooled overnight so you have to raise the temperature more than if you boiled straight after sparging.

+1 for the Sarah Hughes Ruby mild

Lucky me I only live 2 miles from the Beacon in Sedgley where it's brewed. In fact I think I may wander in tomorrow and try a couple

:D

As Boingy says it's surface area that's needed for an IC Here's some pictures of my twin coil IC http://farm7.staticflickr.com/6165/6204117515_0c08c588bc_z.jpg It's made from 10M of 10mm microbore which i wrapped round a couple of sweet jars http://farm7.staticflickr.com/6140/6204611980_cdf5ac6b79_z...

You need a minimum of 5 posts before you can post images.

You've already done 4 so try another post and hey presto you'll be able to post your pictures.

I use mine to check the mash temp just at the start and end of the mash.



Once I've wrapped everything up i don't disturb it as all i'd be doing is losing heat whilst removing some of the insulation and opening the lid.

One of these

makes a great test jar - at only £1.99 it's worth getting a couple just in case

Mine's a twin coil chiller made from a 10m roll of 10mm soft copper tube, 4x 15mm to 10mm reducers, 2x 15mm equal tees and a couple of short lengths of 15mm tube [img]http://farm7.staticflickr.com/6156/6204088413_d1ff6533b0_z.jpg[/img] I borrowed some jars to use as the formers [img]http://farm7.sta...
