Re: Mash vs sparge volumes
Yes, it is recirculating, so it is pulling water from the bottom and feeding back into the top where the grains are. And the water filters back through to the bottom through a mesh at the bottom of the basket. So all the water does kind of come into contact with the grains during the mash. I have a ...

There's a space between the two, so as you pour water into the brewzilla, the first two and a half gallons or so are below the grain basket. And if you're mashing with only three g...

Mash vs sparge volumes
Hi all, Hoping someone can help me figure something out. I use the Brewfather software and my brew system is the brewzilla 35L. It's one of these if you're not familiar. I don't really get how the software decides to divide the total water volume between mash and sparge, and why it changes it per re...

Re: Anyone have a wort chiller I can borrow this weekend?
Haha, I ended up making my own out of copper tubing! It's pretty janky but it works. I put some pics and a video on my instagram if you want to see it.

Re: Non alcoholic beer
Definitely interested in trying this sometime this year. Maybe after the brewfest. I've got too many friends and relatives that don't drink alcohol that but want to try my homebrew "if only" I made no/low ABV beers. Challenge accepted!

Non alcoholic beer
Hi all, There was a bit of a side bar conversation about non alcoholic beer at our last meeting. I recently came across non-acoholic yeast from this seller https://escarpmentlabs.com/en-us/products/nay-non-alcoholic . Doesn't seem like they sell at homebrew scale though, but perhaps if there's inter...

Anyone have a wort chiller I can borrow this weekend?
I'll pay you back in beer.
Was hoping to brew on Sunday for Father's Day.
