In The Shed Today

[R-sole]

Did you temp correct the readings?

Could be the difference is that the ambient temp was warmer when you first measured it till now ;)

[bradsgonetrekkin]

The temp was around the same when I first measured initial abv, but I did open air the demis for a good while at the start so I'm guessing its just the angels share..

I knocked up another pot still for a guy that owns a brew shop, this one has a nut that fits a T500 boiler & that nut also fits a keg with a tri clamp :mrgreen:

Had a big day yesti. Redid the pump wiring at the back of the boat with new, non corroded busbars. Ran a batch of ujsm strip. Made a coil with coldfinger for a local bloke who's bought a 2" VM from me. Rewired the back of the freezer to extend the cables and refitted the lid for my new kegerator. Made a dozen jars of Lime and Cumquat Marmalade.

In the shed yesterday - stripped 45L of TPW then ran it through my VM with a couple of bottles of feints from my last run. For a 2" (shutup McStill :lol: ) my VM is pretty quick, I get up to 2.5L/hr if I run it flat out, and the temp doesn't budge. All up took about 7hrs from firing it up to shutting down. It's airing atm, will cut and bottle it tonight :mrgreen:

[Brigand]

Have you posted any pictures of your set up Busman? - I'd like to see it

I get 1.2L on my VM 5Star built

Are there any peculiar aspects in your VM that allow you to run twice as fast? Eg take off size etc

Cheers

[maheel]

stripped 25L TPW
put the yeast in my "single malt all grain" from yesterdays mash
put down a 13KG sugar TPW

got to get some more stripping done....

[Heffers]

Laid down 160 litres of TPW. This will sit around for about 9 - 10 weeks while I'm away with work so it should be nice and clear by the time I get back to run it.

Cheers,

Heffers
