All Grain Brewday Checklist Posted
Sunday, April 12th, 2009Dear fellow brewmeisters and brewmistresses,
A checklist of steps in the beer brewing process for all grain based recipes has just been posted. Find it by linking to it in the upper right corner of the site or clicking on this link: All Grain Brewday Checklist.
I was inspired to build this the other day as I nearly forgot to add brewing salts to the mash tun! With this brewing checklist on hand, I won’t forget a critical step in the brewing process. It complements the recipe templates and calculators at this site.
We are currently working on expanding the mash calculator, and partial mash brewday sheets.
PROST! – Larry

Might want to add a step for vourlaf.

That’s a great idea! I’ll add that and get it posted in the near future.

First step of sparge and boil updated to include ‘Vorlauf’ step. Vorlauf is simply draining the mash tun until it runs clear and pouring what you got back into the mash tun. It is usually a few pints worth.

the only thing i would include is a step for preheating the mash tun

Thanks Mike, the checklist has been updated with a reminder to pre-heat the mash tun. I forgot that step because I know the quirks of my equipment and shot for +2 degrees on the strike temperature.
