Thanks for asking, it may even surprise a few on this Forum that I'm still around. Update: System worked very well once I got some of the minor bugs out of it, or maybe it was more likely when I learned to use it and the software. Last fall, Brewtroller announced they were going out of busdines and ...

Yeasty, Thank you for reviewing the Grand Duchess RIS - TheBiabacus - recipe. I was using the grain bill from my last batch of 5 for this Grand Duchess Stout, however after your corrections to get it to follow the Tricentennial Stout recipe in BCS, I realized that it would be a good idea to start ou...

Old Geezer's - Grand Duchess - RIS - BJCP Style 13 F - help

Grand Duchess - RIS - BJCP Style 13 F This recipe originated from BCS by Jamil, Page 176-178 Tricentennial Stout. The original recipe has been changed by yours truly over the past 5 years. With the original recipe, BCJP Judges comments were not good. (My equipment was part of the problem and the fac...

I was actually referring to trub that occurs during the boil (proteins & hop debris), I don't have the bag in the boil (other than when I hop sock). SimonT's idea is that the basket occupies the most space it can in the kettle so that when the proteins coagulate, and the hops are added, they do so ...

[quote="mally"]SimonT, I would be very interested too to see if this would work or not as well. I hate negative thoughts/comments but I would worry about the basket getting clogged up, who knows? I've not brewed with a bag, yet. My system is a Mash Tun in Kettle setup, similar to the Spiedels Braume...

Malty, The BJCP judge thing; can you teach people to taste flaws or is it genetic? Short answer Malty... Yes you can be taught to taste flaws and yes some folks have a natural ability and the palette to do so. If you don't have the natural ability, then it takes time to teach yourself to ID all the ...

Continuing the Photo documentation of the SVABS. The first photo of this post shows what the (almost) finished Control Enclosure Cover looks like. One thing, a short explanation of the URL (Heimbierbrauerei.com)under the brewery name. It is still functional, however it has not been updated in a long...

datamichael... Leave the cold water valve to plate chiller closed for 30 seconds to allow hot wort flow (approx 200F (93C) through all piping between Kettle, plate chiller, including tubing to carboy or no-chill cube. After sweet wort is in carboy, and I mixed a batch of PDW in kettle, I'll reverse ...

Sharing more photos of my SVABS. The previous photos shared here completes the system build as far as the Brewing rig itself is concerned. The next series of photos will document the build of the Control Enclosure and the components within. To start off with the enclosure itself. It is really bigger...

As I said in my previous post to aamcle, I looking for comments, concerns and questions regarding the design of my SVABS. Sometime we get to close to a project and overlook protential problems or something simply not working. Going to attempt to post a few more photos of the SVABS, while enjoying a ...

This seems to work like a Braumister with the wort flowing up through a grain bed. The Brau's n Nextgens build up a lot of force on the top filler which has the be firmly clamped down. Will this be an issue with your build? Hi aamcle, Since I have not brewed with this system; I don't know. I believ...

alymere... Thank you for the comments. Continuing the photo story board of my build with comments and 6 more photos. The drawing I posted in the first couple of posts here show that I planned to drill openings in the side of the Mash tube. The next couple of photos how these openings and the silcome...

With the brew stand complete it was time to see if I could assemble a system to place on it. First step, prep the 10 gallon kettle so it could be used as a Mash Tube (my SS Bag) With the Cam Lock fittings in the bottom of the Kettle and its mate in the bottom of the Mash Tube, I needed a means to ma...

SVABS Photos... The first thing needed when building a new system is a stand of some kind that will support it. I started the project build in July 2012 by using Maple hardwood to build the brew stand with. The following post covers that project. 1" x 2" glued up to 2" x 2" for the build. 1 x 2's no...
