I was wondering if others do recirculation over the mash and your thoughts. This usually provides good efficiency for me and seems easy to do though you do need a pump.
More specifically, I use a MT and after the initial mash in, I recirculate the extract from the BK till the gravity stabilizes...
I have a RIMS system that I put together from a RIMS tube and 1/2" nipples for high temp hose. Worked OK but I have a different solution now that is providing me reasonable extraction efficiency so if you are interested let me know. I can provide pictures.
I'll be in the Denver area with a pickup in late Sep if this survives as a unit till then. Kind of $$$ but it looks like you did a great job. LP or natural gas?
And does the control software come with it?
