Thanks for sharing your videos with us. Your calm way of talking and presenting is a blessing. I recently got the same vevor and noticed a few things. If you hook the hop spider into the inner ring, you can pour hops into it, with the lid closed. Also, I assembled the telescope rod differently with the strainer. The strainer went onto the rod, then the bolt and then the grain protection. This way, the strainer rested on the grain and water distributed evenly on top of it. Otherwise i could not make sense of the tube and the "overflowprotection". Lastly, beware of rolling up your cable like that when you are using a lot of watts. You will get a magnetic coil effect, which can also produce heat. Hope the ipa turned out very nicely.

@CarlWoeАй бұрын
@@tomkato9725 you fasten it to the bottom with the end with the flush ring to the mash without thoese little handles. Fill it with malt and mix it. Pull out the rod above your malt level. Not too much or it will get stuck in the extended position.. Then you unscrew the white grain protector AND the nut it is sitting on. Insert the top mesh, so that it is resting on top off your grain. fasten the nut back onto it, but leave the white protector. Why so complicated? Because you are not really supposed to stirr it while brewing Hence the top mash fastened with the nut. Instead you constantly flush the malt with your pump. Why not leave the rod extended? This way, you will always have "only" 2cm of liquid ontop of your grain. The rest will run down the overflow tube from the telescope rod. Guaranteeing that there is always enough liquid for the heating element. If you have more questions, please ask.
