Hi all,
I started extract brewing about 30 years ago (even still have the same Coopers fermenter now as a Starsan bucket) and just recently bought a Brewzilla 35L to move to all-grain.. Also added to my equipment is a pot still head to have a crack at distilling. My setup is a bench made from 200x50 sleepers next to my shed with easy access to power. 3 x IBC tanks live under my citrus trees and seems to stay around 20C all through Summer. It has been good for chilling the beers and worked really well during distillation. Water used is returned to the furthest away tank
My batches aim to be smaller at 12L as I try a wide range of recipes. So far I've done a Citrus IPA and Aussie Lager both from Brewfather. Have to say I'm pleased with the ease with which its made. Sure, there are more steps but they have a logic to them and its pretty hard to screw it up.
First distillation was a sugar wash/clear which turned into Odin's easy gin and went down really easy, and I've got a rum fermenting just now that was taken from Tech Ingredients' recent Youtube video.
I look forward to reading a lot more through the site and contributing where I can.
Cheers,
TC.
