  • Adding ingredients post mill

    I'm looking for a good way to add ingredients and filter aids (rice hulls, flaked wheat) after the mill. we are currently doing this manually in the mash tun but it is tedious and a good way to end up broken. We mill then use an auger to get the grain to the mash tun (no hopper over MT). I'm thinking of using a PVC T just after the mill but any ideas would be welcome. It is a 3" dia. auger tube.

    Thanks,
    Slainte,

    Do you have a grist hopper? If that is easy to access then toss them in there and stir around a bit with a paddle.

    Otherwise, I just weigh out into 5 gal buckets or dump the bags in while mashing in.

      Thanks,
      I like this idea. Any reason why you don't just go with this?
