Oh, also I use about 30cm of tube.

Hi, The way I deal with the foaming issue is to change the tub inside the keg. Use a silicon tube with diameter of 1 to 1.5mm and a stainless barb to barb connector to step down in size. works very well best wishes.

Thanks PhilB, I didn't quite understand your first post. Apologies! I think the RC-4 I used to make the mash temperature measurements above was fairly accurate (calibrated against a therma 5 thermometer). I expect the sensor in the brauheld has an error that isn't constant over the temperature...

Thanks PhilB, Humm, I wasn't clear with point 1) I set the temperature to 100C for a boil, but because the thermostat is inaccurate it only reads 97C and so never reached the set point and consequently doesn't start the timer. I expect that if I set it to 97C, it will reach it, start the timer...

Hi All, I have a Klarstein Brauheld 15, it seems really good, but I have a couple of questions... 1. The temperature measurement reads 97C when it's boiling, so the timer never starts - does anyone know a work around? 2. What is the power setting for???? I measured the temperature variation...

Thanks, I had thought about that (it took me ages to save for the grainfather so it's painful to see it sat in the loft at the moment). But to keep the wife happy, I really need something that is small, self contained, doesn't take a great deal of time to use (and clean) and importantly fits...

Hi All, I'm thinking of buying a klarstein brauheld 15L system. I have a grainfather already, but I also have a 3 year old. The two don't go together very well. The 3 year old is all over the house, the grainfather is in the loft. So I'm thinking of getting something small that can be tucked...
