If you are hot-cubing, then you can skip
the cooling process altogether and transfer
directly into a sanitised HDPE food grade
cube using the pump. We recommend us-
ing a length of silicone tubing to siphon the
wort to the bottom of the cube. Be careful
to not splash your wort when cubing as this
could introduce oxygen. Cap off your cube
when it is filled to the brim, tip it on its side to
allow the hot wort to get into the hollow han-
dle and cap area. Your cube will now cool
overnight and can be fermented when you
are ready to pour it out into a fermentor and
add yeast.
7. Advanced Program Settings
If you are brewing on a consistent schedule,
it is worthwhile using Auto Mode. This mode
allows you to create and run automated
recipes (brew schedule) from start to finish.
Up to 10 recipes can be saved in your Na-
nobrewery. Each recipe can hold up to 18
steps; 8 for mashing, 1 for the boil and 9 for
hopping.
7.1 Running a Recipe
The Guten’s default recipe comprises of 2
mash temperatures and a boiling stage with
no hop schedule. We’ll go through how to run
it in order to get an understanding of Guten’s
Auto Mode.
On the Idle Screen, press AUTO/PAUSE to
enter the edit screen for Auto Mode. The 1st
step of the default recipe is set to 67°C for
60 minutes (R0S1). Press START/PAUSE
to run the recipe. Once set temperature has
reached, the Guten will beep continuously
and the word ‘MASHING’ will flash on-screen.
Dough in your grains before pressing ‘AUTO/
PAUSE’ to start the timer.
Once the 1st timer is up, your Guten will
move onto the 2nd step (R0S2) which is set
by default to 78°C for 20 minutes. Note that
the 2nd timer will not start until the Guten has
reached its set temperature.
When the mash schedule is over, the Guten
will beep non-stop. This is prompting you to
make any preboil adjustments such as steep-
ing, sparging or protein rests. When you
are ready to go to the boil, press ‘START/
PAUSE’. A default timer for 60 minutes will
start when boiling temperature is reached
(R0S3). During the boil, the hop schedule will
