Insulation? Silver backed mats cut to shape and size. Double layer. I think they're yoga mats, but not sure.

Re: Remote chiller with flojet for fermentation Q
Ah, the bucket of water--a different question! At the end of every fermentation I empty the water out of both the two cooling coils and attached pipes. This is so the lid of the fermenter can be taken off and cleaned. At the beginning of fermentation I need to refill the system. So I turn the pump o...

Re: Remote chiller with flojet for fermentation Q
The maxi 110 is on all the time, so there's always an ice bath. The pump comes on as needed, with ice cold water immediately available. happy to answer any questions you might have. Guy Guy, Can I ask why the ice bath? Was the chiller not able to keep up? Or is it "quicker with a buffer tank". Look...

Re: "Total Hardness"?
It's a wonderful thread to read. So much info. But, as an amateur home brewer, I think all I need to know is how to reduce my alkalinity and which salts to add on brewday--Graham's calculator helps with this.
But please keep going, PeeBee and Eric.
It's a joy to read your discussion.

Any chance of a couple of photos, please? I'm not quite following what you're asking.

Hi Hodda
Don't know if this will help, but this is how I do it.
The maxi 110 is on all the time, so there's always an ice bath. The pump comes on as needed, with ice cold water immediately available.
happy to answer any questions you might have.

Re: Crisp Session Bitter
Nice looking recipe. Where would you get the Flyer hops from? My guess is any good base malt would do. Thomas Fawcett's as good as any. As PeeBee suggests, you might want to replace the Caramalt. It could give too heavy a taste/feel to the finished beer. But it might be fine. I'm sure the people at ...

Re: What size freezer for 4 kegs
I'm assuming you mean a chest freezer. I have one that is 900 wide, 550 deep and 840 tall, and I've added a 200 tall collar to it. It fits 5 slim AEB kegs - 3 on the floor and two on the hump (one is partly on the hump and needs support under it), or instead of the 2nd keg on the hump I can fit in ...

Re: Removing Limescale from 100l pan
Try spraying it with quadruple concentrate Starsan or similar. May do the trick.

Re: Wort Aerating device
Excellent bit of kit, WA. I use one of these to mix the mash so there's an even temperature throughout.
As to aerating the wort, mine is run from the boiler to the FV in a slow steady flow. This creates lots of froth and seems to aerate it well enough.

Re: Phosphoric acid - supply
Can we remove any, even the remotest, idea that pH of brewing liquor has influence on mash pH. Yes please!! A fun experiment is to run some water from the tap and measure the pH. Then come back 15 minutes later and do it again, then another 15 minutes etc etc. The pH changes every time, as the wate...
