Hi Guys, my brother-in-laws and I are starting out on AG brewing.  I think I’ve pulled all the gear together that we should need (all mainly on the cheap!).  Just looking for any glaringly obvious issues with the set up before we have a crack at the first brew (pale ale) in the weekend.

I’ve ended up using plastic piping (still need to drill it out – thinking about just filling it up with 2mm holes) in the mash turn – is this likely to have any issues?

Cheers, Matt.

Plastic pipes with 2mm slot cut across the bottom (using hacksaw) worked well for me.  The 2mm holes should work fine, as long as you have enough for a reasonable flow.

Siphoning into fermentor should be fine (just remember to sanitise your siphoning gear).  Heck, I still pour from kettle into fermentor.  Yes, it's tricky, but it oxygenates the wort before pitching the yeast.
