Water is eventually on after what could have been a show stopper!

The live soldered lead to the immersion element parted company when i was reinstalling the HLT after a descaling.
10 min later with a trusty Dremel had the solder spot ground down and a new connection via a 30A connector block.

Sounds like a good 'un, enjoy

Have a good day!

Have fun

sounds good enjoy your day

And some pics.....

Grain bill ready, mash tun pre-heating.


All doughed in and steady at 66c.


First batch from sparge in the copper and hot break looks good.


All done - 50lt at the planned 1.044
Safely in the warm cupboard at 20c.

Looking good

Looks like it was a sucess mb, nice one!

It will be a HERMS when the PID control panel gets built.
But there is also a foil backed camping mat under there

Todays mash lost 2 degrees in the 90mins.
So its not to bad, the HERMS recirc will easily make up the difference.

Renamed - Taffy's Tipple on account of St.Davids Day being brew day.

Best fermentation ever with Nottingham yeast.
1.044 down to 1.008 in 8 days, Promash calculates that at over 80% attenutation and a right tasty beer at 4.7% abv

Do i use leeks or daffs on the bottle labels?
