So back in the day....had the 15 gallon 3 tier/3 burner/pump/cc chiller/controlled everything run at brewing. Years ago before anything was available off the shelf. Everything was an automation project as much as a brewing project.
Got completely burned out.
I'm older and lazier now and have been thinking about getting back into a low tech version of brewing for the fun of it.
I have pretty much settled on BIAB using either the DigiBoil 35L or 65L 220V. Would like to avoid sparging and use full volume mashing with fine grain grinds to achieve whatever efficiency is realistic.
For the most part my target gravity beers are gonna be 4-8% ABV at 5.5/6 gallon batches.
Just in general I would prefer the DigiBoil 35L if for no other reason than size in my available space....but I'm concerned that the capacity is not quite large enough for the full volume mashes.
Any of the DigiBoil 35L users out there have any feedback as to actual working recipe mashing/boiling size limits you've run into with this unit?
