Always clean the machine before and after use.
⚫
Add the required quantity of water before switching on.
⚫
Enter your desired settings or choose stored setting and heat up the water to the first level of the mashing
program, then add the malt into the grain basket and stir it gently.
⚫
Start your circulation pump when the correct temperature is reached, regulate the pump flow (as shown in the
section below)
⚫
The standard heat session time is 60-90mins for the mashing (recipes may vary)
⚫
Increase the temperature to 78-80
℃
, for sparging (recipes may vary)
⚫
After mashing, carefully lift the grain basket with the separate handle and locate the grain basket lugs onto the
support ring on the boiler rim.
⚫
Now sparge to extract the remaining sugars sitting in the grains in the basket.
⚫
Heat up the water to boiling temperature, (which can be done while basket is draining) boiling session time is
app. 60 mins (recipes may vary).
⚫
Add the hops etc. at correct timings according to your recipe.
⚫
Immerse your wort chiller appx.15mins before the boil has finished, this sterilizes the equipment.
⚫
After the boil, cool down the wort to 26
℃

Circulation Pump
⚫
Running the pump without water will ruin the pump!
⚫
Water must be in the boiler before switching on the pump.
⚫
Do not run the pump during wort boiling.
⚫
Close the (blue) valve on the circulation pipe.
⚫
Insert the curved pipe. Press down the two handles on the connector to lock the pipe into place.
⚫
Switch on the pump after above operation.
⚫
Adjust the flow rate using the blue valve for correct circulation speed
⚫
You need to adjust the flow until a happy rate of circulation is achieved.
⚫
Switch off the pump after mashing. Please do not remove the curved pipe before you close the valve and
switch off the pump. Unless you want a fountain of wort all over the place.
