I am going to aim my bottles away from my face from now on!
How did that happen? Is that from the lid popping off?
Awesome rig - very similar to what I am planning but I think i will go full electric. What are you using for thermostatic control in the HLT? How long does 2KW take to heat the sparge water?
I was picturing Yoda, personally. Brew or brew not, there is no try.
Went with
20g green bullet at 60
25 NZ Cascade at 30, 15, and flame out.
Just whirpooling now, about to siphon into the fermenter and pitch yeast.

What temps are you mashing at? What thermometer are you using? Digital or glass?…
Just a test tube and a hydrometer mate - haven't got the flash toys yet!
How are you measuring the gravity? A couple of times recently I have thought that I had a brew finish too high, only to realise that I had forgotten to adjust my refractometer reading against the original gravity......
Well the gravity has not changed at all on the amber - 3 weeks after racking to secondary.
Thinking about ditching it, as I am moving house on the weekend.
The stout has settled at 1042 (from 1086) and has not changed for the last two weeks.
