I meant tape to mark the water leveln

Managed to get a false bottom for mine. Angel homebrew sent a 'back in stock' email. I ordered one pretty much immediately & it was then marked as 'out of stock' so they must have found one in the back of a cupboard.

I might now try a batch without using the hop spider to see if hop utilisation appears any better.

" grind directly into the pre-assembled basket, then just put it into the preheated mash water and let it sink. It actually floats and slowly lowers itself! WAY easier than traditional mashin"

tried this for the first time and i wont go back to traditional dough in . this is no brainer for me.

anyone else do this its much easier and no change in efficiency.

Yes that was always how I did it but I have a concern about the sides and bottom sinking at different rates as the grain floats and no longer holds it together. I use the mash paddle to force the pipe down then stir.

Did you notice much in hop utilisation? Brewlosophy did a vid on hop spiders and I don't think they noticed much difference. Used a hop spider for the first time on Friday. And I could see plenty of oils coming from the basket and beer smelt as good as usual. Saved a load of mess in the bottom of the kettle as well. I'll wait and see what the beer comes out like but it's having a massive dry hop anyway so maybe not the beer to test with.

Haven't got as far as drinking anything done without a hop spider yet...

Smarter digital interface, ability to build and send recipes from App/Brewfather, set delays and start in morning evening as you see fit...

That's about it. Also comes with CF Chiller, reckon that if i was plumping for a system now and had GF money I'd go for Brewzilla G4 and pocket £150

I know this is an oldish post now but I would also add the GF has much better build quality, plumbing fittings, & a decent manual (I've got both )

I noticed they listed a refurbished silver for £288.99 and with the 24SUMMER21 code for 21% it comes to £228.30. Not as good as the £176.99 we all paid but not bad. Sounds like the refurb might just be an unwanted return and so likely hasn't been through a brew.

Edit: seems they recently had a 30% code 24SUMMER30 so maybe wait until that comes back.

Edit2: the refurbs are now sold out and the 21% code ended last night.
