Silly day for a brewday, but what the hell!
3.5kg Pale malt
0.25 Kg Xtal malt
0.25 Kg Wheat malt
40g Fuggles, FWH
20g Goldings at 70 mins
HLT and Mash Tun set up for under letting
Grain filter, (many thanks Nick).
Analogue showing grain temp
Strike liquor over surface of grain
After a quick stir, liquor and grain âdoughedâ in
Pic showing Mash temp at 66.5C failed!
Pipes rearranged for HERMS
Mash left to rest for 15 mins
PID PT100 shown in pre-heat position
Wort level in Mash tun prior to HERMS âpump onâ
Relative Wort level after HERMS âpump onâ ( indicates no cavitation)
PT 100 shown in HERMS active position
Spinney Sparging
Boil with 1 No. 2.2kW element, 2 No. Used to bring to boil.
Rapid cooling using CFC into Conical Fermenter.
OG 1041, could have been better!
As an experiment I increased the HERMS temp to 69C near the end of the mash.
It took 3 mins for the HERMS out to reach temp and 10 mins for the mash to reach temp.
