Hello all
I have decided to take the advice given here to brew my wort in a water bath and this I have to say is the correct advice ��" so I am using a 30 litre blue jam butt with the black lid and sealing ring primed with 24 litres of warm water ,
My 25 litre standard brewing vessel with screw top drops right in it with the delta therm25 watt heater dropped in through a 28 mm whole in lid, there is also a 30 mm hole in the centre to allow my air lok pipe out and the temp holds steady at 18 degrees even in my garage at minus 6 degrees,
I have always used the immersion heater direct in the wort however after reading threads here I was prompted to check the cleanliness of the heater and was alarmed what I found trapped under the rubber housing the water bath is therefore the way forward from now on .
