Hi all, I have limited experiance of brewing, but plan to turn my now defunct fish house into a brew house.
I have always thought "get the biggest you can "to save upgrading after the initial start-up. Wondering if this goes with brewing?
If 70l hlt and boiler were used would there be any drawbacks at first doing 25 ltr brews as it would be silly to make larger brews and waste it when it all goes wrong?
As with the mash tun if a small brew is done in a big vessel would the grain be spread too thin to give a good bed?
Start up is still a few months down the line but trying to read up as much as possible so as not to make mistakes on choice of equipment.
Any input welcome , cheers!!
