    Hi. Having read threads from this forum for a while decided to join. I started all grain brewing in 1979 (BIAB) using a 'bruheat' system for those long enough in the tooth to remember them! That kit lasted a surprisingly large number of years and was replaced by a Peco system which has now been...
