B3-150 With Kettle and Wort Chiller
B3-150B
Complete With Kettle & Wort Chiller
System includes complete B3-150 All-Grain System with our 8 gallon Heavy Duty stainless steel kettle and a MoreBeer wort chiller. We notch the kettle lid to perfectly accommodate the wort chiller.
When you get into all grain brewing you can no longer do partial boils of 2 to 3 gallons, so you need a kettle in which you can boil 5 gallons at a time. A savings of over $40.
We have been asked many times how many pounds of grains can fit into the 5 gallon cooler. There are many different theories on water to grain ratio, but pretty commonly excepted is anywhere from .9 to 1.1 quarts of water per 1 pound of grain. With that in mind here is what we found.
At 1.1 quarts of water per 1 pound of grain we were able to fit 14.5 lbs of grain with the false bottom in place. That correlates to using a 1 to 1 ratio you could fit in 16 lbs and at a .9 to 1 ratio you can fit in over 17lbs of grain.
