Master Brewer
Ole happy here. I been wonderin bout a few things lately. I'm on the brewin roll agin, meenin I been brewin. last week i put together about 24 gallons of beer that is fermentin away. i usually make beer in 8 gallon batches. iffin yer wonderin that comes out to a few bottles short of three cases of beer to drink. dont seem like so much time in a few bottles o beer. anyhow i got a new 16 gallon kettle that really works good! I was puttin her thru the works so as to get used to brewin with it when it dawned on me about trub loses. do ya'll lean the kettle over n git the last drops from yer kettles or just let it go till it quits drippin out? I use one of those bazooka screens in my kettle n it seems good but iffin i scrape on it a little towards the end i get a little more runnins. also same question bout the mash tun. i go the batch sparge route and wondered if you try to get everything out as long as you got gravity? thanks n happy brewin.
