Christening the new kit

[pswillies]

Since I've been giving the new kit it's first run out today, I thought I'd share a few shots from my day.

I'm giving Bombay IPA a go this time to keep things reasonably simple while I learn the quirks of the new equipment. Things went pretty muchto plan, apart from a few litres more loss than I planned for down to some pipe work 'issues'

So, some pictures...

New HLT, tun & pump ready for action


9.5kg of grain ready to go


Recirculating the mash


Solar pump doing its stuff


First runnings in to the boiler


'Most' of the hops


A good boil


1054'ish


and 38 litres in the fermenter

hmmm yes it would concern me a little too, indoors nearby curtains naked flame however I'm sure your aware of the dangers and have taken adequate precautions.

Love that stainless table...... :thumb:

It's in the garage, with a nice big window and door next to it.
