Going Shiny

Well my plastic boiler has expired so I'm having another go at shiny equipment. A 50 litre stainless boiler with twin backer elements totalling 3KW. This means 40Litre maximum brews....I've almost run out of beer so lets hope its not the mess the last 'shiny' was.

10 gallon brewing!

Well we are up and running with a 10 gallon (80 pint/60 litreish* set up. My mash tuns a bit small so longer brews are correspondingly weaker, or strong brews shorter brew lengths. So far its been 10 gallons of my coriander wheat beer followed by  a new recipe cascade ale 'snapper'.

Shiny returned, plastic is the future

Well the stainless shiny leaked, dispite me and dads best efforts it we'ed all over the show. So I was credited the £199, meaning I could get a plastic 60 litre boiler, twin element, a 60 litre fermenter and two pressure barrel! I'm far happier with this set up. Trust in plastic!
