      So, been trying to wrap my head around the Calculator. Think I've got there now. Can someone (Yeasty??) cast their eyes over this attempt at Summer Lightning based on the recipe in Graham Wheelers British Real Ale book. Many thanks...

      +1 to Ian. I use brewzor pro on my android to get the correct strike temp. Measure the temp of your grain and then put it into the calculator and it tells you what strike temp is needed to hit your mash temp once the grain has been added.
      
      I have done a summer lightning which is in the FV now. I recultured yeast from 2 bottles of summer lightning. The reculturing yeast is a hobby in itself!

   2. Buffalo Boiler Breakdown

      Well after a big disaster on my first BIAB, my Buffalo water boiler is not even turning on. Anyone give me any help in how to open it up so I can try to fix and why it might have cut out completely (I burnt my mash bag on the bottom of the boiler - even though it has a concealed element!)?
      
      Many thanks if you can help
      Scott

      How well would one of these work for biab:

      Okay, so I have been having a play with the Beer Calculator. Think I've got my head round it. Is it okay to post my file here for someone to have a look at to see if I got it right?
