Brewing Equipment

Post by kloorob » Sun Dec 21, 2014 9:28 am

Hi All, I am going over from extract brewing to grain, and in the early days I would like to keep my batches down to below 20lt on the bases I would prefer to experiment more often in the early stages, and to me brew days are also fun!

Therefore what size boiler and mash tun do you recommend I could use?

Thanks for your help.

I have a dual stainless 19l pot setup which allows me to brew 16l batch lengths for simple grain / hop bills with careful use. Higher gravity brews just necessitate using my 25l coolbox fun from my full setup.

Short brews are useful - you can mix it up with multiple styles and hop combos without being flooded with too much to drink - especially if like me you're "honing" your skills and some efforts aren't exactly perfect :lol:
