Brautag is German for “Brew Day” and this is the perfect system for you to brew your best beer yet! HERMS stands for Heat Exchange Recirculating Mash System. This is our favorite style of brewing system because it uses indirect heat to warm up your mash. This eliminates issues with scorched grain and gives its user very consistent brewing temperatures. The Brautag has three 20 gallon kettles and is the perfect size for 15 gallon batches.
The Brautag is a collaboration between the team behind the Homebrew Happy Hour podcast - and it has been a labor of love! This system was developed from the ground up and is the result of several years of building HERMS systems and brewing on them. The goal with this system is to allow someone to get it set up and brewing quickly and easily. The Brautag has been designed to be easy to brew on and this has been achieved by using very intuitive controllers coupled with videos and written documentation. For detailed information on this system please visit www.brautag.com

Nice system! Excellent video! AND Todd, if someone would use a regular brillo type steel pad they will also deposit iron particles which will rust on the SS surface.

I use a green scotch brite dish scrubber. It cleans good and doesn’t leave any iron to rust.

[@timmillervideo]

You wouldn't have wasted wort in your Herms coil if you ran your sparge water from the hot liquor tank through the coils then to the mash tun. Not only do you save Wort but you clean your coil at the same time

this is what i do

It seems liquid yeast is much convenient...
