I just want to say, thank you John for sponsoring Brew Strong for so many years. Also, I really like this tutorial for the Brew Easy. An "all-in-one" unit I am considering. Cheerz.

I brew on your 10 gallon ProPilot electric HERMS system. I just want to say what great quality your kettles and pumps are. I especially appreciate the false bottom (same one as shown in the system in this video). I’ve never used a false bottom that worked as well and yet never had a stuck sparge. I’ve tried to push my recirculation and never had any issues. I highly recommend your kettles and brewing systems Thank you for your great products.

Very satisfied BrewEasy 10 Gal customer here, too. Thanks for the GREAT product, as well as update & tips! I have considered replacing my BoilCoil kettle with a Surface.

I absolutely love my 10gal-240v Blichmann Brew Easy (15/20 kettle configuration). My system is only four years old and continues to perform flawlessly. The Surface would be a great upgrade and eliminate some worry from keeping my submersion coil covered with wort. I’m curious of the additional weight the Surface has compared to the traditional boil coil application.

Very cool updates to the BrewEasy. I loved mine before. The Surface kettle upgrade was the best update IMO. Now I love it even more. Easy to clean as your clips of my own cleaning video demonstrate.

This is an awesome video. We currently have a 3 vessel 1bbl boilermaker herms system with 3 riptide pumps. We are always looking at new techniques on improving our brewing!!!!! Keep putting out this amazing content!!!!!

So glad it was helpful for you! We certainly will. Make sure to stay tuned @BlichmannEngineering and @AnvilBrewing Equipment for our educational series that will start this month with Mike Frericks from @BitterRealityBrewing.

Great Wort is easy to make. Fermentation temperature control and O2 free packaging is what makes great beer.

Looks like you have stuck with this approach and it is taking shape. Some suggestions from a Low Oxygen brewer and Anvil Foundry owner: 1. Add your grain to the mash tun first then Connect the recirc hose to the mash tun outlet to perform an Underlet. Close the valve and hook up the stem and proceed. 2. Create a mash cap that is integrated with the system. 3. Change the silicon tubing to Tygon or Santroprene. 4. Have a way to slow the pump down considerably via PWM or similar to limit shear force during the recirculation. Do these things and low oxygen brewers will see the system as a decent all in one option. Please let me know if you would like for information!

What size system are you using in this video?

@BlichmannEngineering 4 ай бұрын

Hi there! It's a 10/10 prototype, but the BrewEasy™ 10 Gallon Batch model is the most comparable. You can find it here: www.blichmannengineering.com/breweasy.html

Aw dang. I really like the 25lbs of grain and the surface element combo. Guess I'll have to wait, my current system can do the 18 of the current 7.5 gallon kettle. And i can't justify the purchase if it doesnt have what i need. Hopefully, we can get the prototype to market soon.
