Brewing Process (example)
•
Always clean the brewing vessel before and after use.
•
Attach the Bazooka filter to the inside tail of the tap using the included hose clamp.
•
Add the required quantity of strike water before switching the brewing vessel on.
•
Insert the bottom sparge plate into the malt pipe and then insert the malt pipe
into the brewing vessel.
•
Heat up the water to your strike temperature in either manual or auto mode.
•
Add the milled grain into grain basket and stir it gently.
•
Once your grain is well mixed and completely saturated, gently place the top
sparge plate on top of your mash
•
Switch on the pump to circulate the wort through your grain bed. If the wort is
over flowing through the central overflow pipe, reduce the pump flow by using
the blue valve.
•
After mashing, carefully lift the malt pipe with the included handle, and gently
set the feet of the malt pipe down onto the support ring on the boiler.
•
If you are sparging, you can gently pour your sparge water into the malt pipe
and let it run through your grain. Leave the grain to drain into boiler for at least
10mins after sparging before removing).
•
Heat up the water to boiling temperature
•
Add the hops etc. at the correct times according to your recipe.

Immerse your wort chiller into the boiling wort 10 minutes before the end of the
boil to sanitise it.
•
After the boil is finished, cool down the wort to the pitching temperature stated
in your recipe before transferring to your fermenting vessel via the tap and
bazooka filter on the front of the machine.

soft scouring pad to clean the inside of the boiler.
