    Dispensing from 5L mini kegs

    I used them with a party start tap and rubber bungs until I went to cornies, great system but yes kegs don't last for ever. If you don't want the expense of the tap why not use the the bungs with a sugar primed wort and use the natural co2 produced to dispense from the tap in the keg, if not...

    Brewzilla Gen 4 advice and experiences

    You can use a 65l on a 13 amp socket provided you don't use over 85% power setting,but a dedicated 15/16 amp circuit is far safer in case you forget

    Amount of strike water in an All In One

    When I first got my BZ 35 I had a similar question and wasn't on the forum. I put the malt pipe in the BZ and measured water adding until it just showed on the bottom plate of the malt pipe and added this figure to the 3l X 1 kg figure from memory this was about 7l and this worked great and I...

    Brewzilla Gen 4 advice and experiences

    As I don't use whole hops can't comment on their progress through the false bottom but one benefit of the heat exchanger is it does catch a lot of the protein that sneaks through the false bottom from the hot/cold break

    Looking to buy Brewzilla Gen4 or Gen3 ?

    I have used both and now prefer my Gen 4 mainly because of the ease of the display. The rapt connection although mainly gimmicky is handy for viewing what's going on in a different room (I brew outside and hide inside when the weather's not great). I can definitely recommend doing the re-...

    Brewzilla 65l 3.1.1 Problems?

    It isn't foaming or bubbles rising or falling, that really wouldn't concern me too much, it is the whole liquid level rising and falling. I think you could be right on a ' milk saver' effect as it seems to me that the steam or bubbles created by boiling seem to get temporarily trapped below the...

    Hi while a relative forum nubie I am a Brewzilla veteran and reasonably experienced homebrewer. Has anyone out there got a Brewzilla 65 and experienced this same problem?
