Why Mill Your Own Grain?  Milling your own grain… 1.  Gives you control over the crush of your grain.  That’s a big factor in efficiency.  2.  A mill allows you to fine tune for your equipment and process.  You know what the crush is going to be since you set it.  3.  A mill allows you to save money by buying whole bags of grain at a discount, and 3.  The shelf life of unmilled grain is longer than pre-milled grain.  Freshly milled grain = better tasting beer.

  • This is a great mill!  Check out my Hands on Review
  • This great mill is on sale for just $79.98
  • Stacks With Free Shipping!  Adventures in Homebrewing is offering free shipping on most orders of $55 or more with a few exclusions.

Symons Galaxy Kits at MoreBeer

It’s a big brewing world out there, make sure you see as much of it as possible! Australian Sparkling Ale is one of those mysterious beer styles that a lot of us had never sampled (or even heard of, really). But its light, easy-drinking body paired up with delicious hop-forward flavors and aromatics make it an outstanding, sessionable brew. Pilsner dominates the malt profile with a dash of White Wheat and Carapils for body and mouthfeel, allowing the hop combination of Galaxy and Strata to really pop. Similar to how the best view of the Milky Way is on a moonless night in the Outback, these hops are on gorgeous display as post boil and dry hop additions, with very little bitterness to cloud the citrus, tropical, and cannabis character they impart.

Symons Galaxy was first brewed at Imperiale Beer Project in Brentwood, CA as part of a virtual collaboration with Australian beer historian, Peter Symons. Who better to have at your side (albeit through the computer screen) than the gentleman who literally wrote the BJCP guidelines for the style? This collaborative effort resulted in a unique, modern take on the ASA style—introducing Strata, a non-Australian hop, into the mix to complement the heavy additions of Galaxy hops. Symons Galaxy was a smash hit, and is sure to satisfy any hop head out there.

Vittles Vault Storage Bins

Gamma2 as a company is 100% dedicated to their mission of designing and providing pet food containers to animal owners (technically they also care about your dog getting out of the pool, as they make a doggy pool exit ramp). But, that doesn’t mean these “pet food containers” can’t be co-opted for homebrewing. The same characteristics that make them ideal for pet food, also make them ideal for malt storage.

Vittles Vault 60-lb Container

I’ll go through a few storage basics for malt. First, you want to store it uncrushed, so that the husk helps keep the good stuff inside protected from the environment. Cracked grain kernels are more enticing to critters, and opens up the endosperm to fast staling. Beyond that, grain wants to be kept at cooler room temperatures (40 – 60F), dry, away from light, and in an airtight environment. Maltsters range in the max recommended storage time, with most in the 12-18 months range, and some up to 24 months. When you buy grains by the 55-lb sack, most will put a “best by” date on the label, since you don’t know how old it is before you get it. Although you can save money by buying grains in bulk, you need to make sure you have the right throughput to use it up before it stales.

Lid o-ring Out of Groove on Right Side

Gamma2 has a number of different types and sizes of storage containers. All are designed to be airtight, so they keep air from getting in and staling your grains when you’re not scooping it. (Which of course, the same thing can’t be said for that 55-lb sack of grain you’ve got in the corner, with a stretch of duct tape over the hole you cut into it…) The lid design is how they achieve this air-tightness. There’s a compliant o-ring that’s held in a groove on the lid which gets compressed down onto a chamfered face on the body of the container to make the seal. As the threaded lid gets screwed down, the o-ring will get squished to block off the air-leak path past the lid.

Kegland Kegmenter UniVessel – Fermenter Under Pressure! Save 20%

7.6 Gallon Kegmenter Fermenting Keg

7.6 Gallon Kegmenter Fermenting Keg

More Info

From the product description, check product page for current description, price and availability:

7.6 Gallon Kegmenter Fermenting Keg

Ferment, carbonate and serve your delicious homebrew in the fantastic stainless steel Kegmenter. This 7.6 gallon capacity keg features a large 4″ tri-clover opening with a lid with ball lock posts and a pressure relief valve. The Kegmenter has a working pressure of 2.5 BAR or 36 psi, providing enough pressure to transfer your beer to another Kegmenter for secondary fermentation and clarification, carbonate your batch inside the vessel and dispense from your tap. A floating dip tube ensures your keg pours down to the last drop and the recessed design of the ball lock posts allow you to safely stack up to 4 Kegmenter. We recommend using two Kegmenters, one for fermenting and one for carbonating and serving. If it will take 2-3 weeks to consume the finished beer, you may want to move it to a fresh vessel to avoid leaving the beer on the trub for too long. A simple Keg Jumper (Available Here!) makes transferring easy. For any pressurized fermentation we suggest using an Adjustable Pressure Relief Valve (Available Here!).

Features:
– Ferment, Carbonate & Serve in One Vessel!
– 7.6 Gallon Capacity – Perfect for 5 Gallon Batches
– Stainless Steel Construction with 4″ Tri-Clover Opening
– Ball Lock Post Keg Lid with Pressure Relief Valve
– 36 PSI Working Pressure
– Stack Up to 4 Kegmenters

 

The Kegland Fermenter allows you to ferment and serve in the same vessel. It’s also pressure capable so you can ferment under pressure.

Stacking Savings on Maltzilla Diamond Roller MOTORIZED Mill

Maltzilla Diamond Roller Mill Package

Maltzilla Diamond Roller Mill Package from William’s Brewing

The MaltZilla is the first mill to use diamonds impregnated into the surface of the twin 70 millimeter diameter rollers. Unlike knurled steel rollers, these diamonds will stay just as sharp as they were on day one, as they are harder than steel. Most mills require aggressive knurling to push into the grain and “chop” the grain as it passes through a tight gap. This often means your grains are chopped in half. The MaltZilla works on a different principle and gap setting is not as critical; impregnated diamonds to grip the surface of the kernel and the friction of pulling the grain through the gap causes a sheering action. This leaves the entire husk intact reducing the chance of stuck sparge and improving efficiency, while still opening the husk so the entire contents of the kernel are converted from starch to sugar. Click HERE for a picture of malt that has been milled in the Maltzilla. The Maltzilla crushes about 2 pounds of grain per minute.

Note: The Maltzilla is for milling barley and wheat malt, it does not mill corn or other harder grains.

The 24 volt DC motor features an integrated gearbox. The high torque and sealed construction make it ideal for a brewing environment. The motor is sealed from moisture and grain dust, and integrated into the side body of the mill, and runs with less noise than traditional mill motors. Being DC the motor is safer than higher voltage AC especially in an environment where washing down the area with a hose is likely to happen.The motor is also reversible so the direction of spin can be changed based on the polarity. This is particularly useful for over-mount and under-mount installation.

This complete package includes the KegLand Power Transformer item X84, which provides a safe 24 volts DC to run the mill. Also included are the Maltzilla Base, Maltzilla Hopper, and William’s 6 Gallon Bucket to catch the crushed malt.

The hopper comes unassembled, and detailed assembly instructions are provided. The included base is easily bolted onto the Maltzilla with the included bolts. 33″ tall with bucket, 15½” tall without bucket. 18″ wide, 13½” deep.

  • This combo is selling for $299.99. That’s a $34.92 savings vs buying individual components.
  • 15% Off Mills & Accessories: For a short time, Williams Brewing is discounting their lineup of grain mills & accessories by 15%. No coupon is needed. Discounted prices reflected in cart
  • Shipping is free or reasonably priced flat rate to addresses in the lower 48 states depending on your order size for most items.
