A comedy of errors with powering the boil. and mash issues- first half mash at 55C.

Split water on Arduino, heating element failed. Borrowed Ben’s boiler – had to split batch so boied in 15L pot and 5 L pot on stove. Power tripped off twice…

 

That’s what happens when you start a brew at 4:45 on a sunday….
