Does regular vinyl tubing work for transfering near boiling liquid? Bc the high temp silicon tubing is like 6 dollars a foot

All Grain Brewing / Batch Sparging on a Single-Tier System

« on: November 03, 2012, 08:44:52 pm »

I watched a video of a gentleman pumping from the hot liquor tank into the outlet valve so he was pumping up.

He said it worked well and mixed the mash while he was pumping in. He then switched the hoses around so he could pull wort from the bottom and pump back on top to settle the grain bed

My first brew stand. Figured it will be easier then lifting pots and using a picnic table and gravity. I have a march pump but hasn't been mounted yet ran out of time today.

I think the best part is my buddy and I painted it gold.

Zymurgy / Is there a way to opt-out of the hard copy?

I'll trade you. I never received mine in the mail. I always had to call them to ship another copy.

Equipment and Software / First All Grain - Temperature Test

Dcbc do you have steady heat on the mashtun during mashing or do you just turn on the heat to raise the temp back up?

I would have to agree with Denny. I looked at his sight and bought a cooler off of amazon and valve set up with bazooka screen and only paid 80 bucks for all of it.

If your batch sparging you wouldn't need the hot liquor cooler.

I would go with minimal amount of equipment then add on as you see where your brewing is going.

I ended up goin with the burner in the link and it only cost me 36 bucks at menards. Now I get to cut parts off my two burners and weld up a frame and make a totally radtacular brewing stand.

So my attempt at growing hops was a major failure. The tallest one got to a staggering 7 inches tall. I don't know what was up. I watered regularly, weeded, and made sure critters didn't nibble on the leaves. Oh well we can't be good at everything.

I thought the out side of the pump can be pointing up vertically?

I have nothing against amazon. I love it I am just trying to put together my stand this weekend and I would like my mash tun burner on hand to build around. My burner for boiling is a bayou classic sp10.
