Yes it just goes down the drain...but I've read lots of ways people reuse that water...Some people run it into the washing machine and use it to do a load of wash. Use it to clean your tools....watever use you have for some good hot water. You might as well take advantage of it. I'm just building my...

Grain Question
Ok...so I found this recipe that I'd like to try out. Its calling for 7 lbs of Briess Pil's 10-14L That is just under 50% of the grain. The problem is can't figure out what Briess Pil's is. Is it short for Carapils? The Briess website talks about using Carapils in only about 5% of your grain. Is it ...

Efficiency
Legman, can you tell me how you figure the efficiency of wort. Does it matter that its a partial mash and not an all grain?

Temperature Control / Mash
How can you control the temperature of the mash with a cooler? If I notice the temp dropping there isn't much that can be done with a plastic cooler. If I mash in a pot or on the stove then I can add heat if the temp starts to drop. I'd like to start using my cooler for this step but I worry that I ...

Stainless Steel Hose
Where do you get such a thing? I tried building a pvc manifold system with lots of holes in it...It didn't work that great and I took it apart. I'm not sure where you get the stainless steel braided hose that you all talk about?

Re: I don't think it's possible without adding amylase or fu
as far as I know, this can only be done with natural amylase (mashing with other malted grains), or adding either amylase or possibly koji or some equivalent that can be used on flour. Koji is the mold that is grown on rice to produce enzymes to cleave the starch, and I suppose there are probably o...

This is a tough one...I like when people post helpful links to potential solutions or cool things they've seen. That is certainly not spam. I cant stand when spammers post completely irrelevent links or inappropriate links. This one is borderline. Some homebrewers may find it useful (although most h...
