Presentation of the Master Brewer
2.1
Components and extent of supply
Please find out about the components and the extent of supply from the
following illustration (the cooling spiral and fermenting cask are not included).
2.2
Installation of the Master Brewer
The Master Brewer must be placed on a sturdy, stable and horizontal base before use
or before the brewing process. Note that the Master Brewer can weigh up to 50 kg
when it is in a filled condition and full up with boiling hot wort. Horizontal installation
is a prerequisite for the pumped recirculation during the brewing process. Avoid a
wobbly base. A sturdy wooden box or a table that is not too high is ideally suitable.
The Master Brewer is not allowed to be moved during the brewing process.
The handles are only intended for transporting and handling it in an empty condition.
It is imperative to keep children away from the device when it is in use.
2.3
Cleaning the Master Brewer
The Master Brewer must be cleaned immediately after the brewing process.
The cleaning is considerably eased by preventing the residual wort and malt from
drying out. All stainless steel parts can be cleaned with a conventional, domestic
washing-up liquid [mixed with water]. Scouring agents and sponges or brushes that
cause scratches are unsuitable. The heating spiral can best be cleaned with a pipe-
cleaning thread. The pump and the drive ball located inside it should also be flushed
out regularly. Fresh water is pumped through the pump several times beforehand. Just
invert the Master Brewer and loosed the screwed connection – which should only be
tightened manually – in order to open the pump. The pump can be easily removed by
completely detaching the plug’s screwed connection from the Master Brewer.
