The sulphate ion in calcium sulphate is thought to promote a drier beer, which in turn may allow bitterness and hop flavours and aromas to be more prominent. Adding calcium sulphate to brewing water is common when brewing pale ales and India pale ales.
Before adding salts to your brewing water you should obtain a water analysis report to enable you to calculate the amount of salts in your brewing water after making any additions. Refer to the Brewing Resources page for some links to water chemistry calculators.

Fill any beverage into any bottle, can, jar or glass automatically with this internet connected, RAPT enabled, Cannular Can and Bottle Filler. More sanitary and easier to use than other competitors.
This Cannular Can and Bottle filler is ideally used for bottle, cans or even glasses. Using two adjustable stainless steel tubes it will use one to purge oxygen out of the vessel and then use the second one to fill the vessel to a precise level based on an internal pressure sensor.
Features
OLED Digital Display
The OLED display makes calibration super easy. It also enables you to keep track of filling speed, number of cycles/fills, purge time, fill height and also enables you to make on-the-fly adjustments to your filling requirements so you can conveniently tweak the settings while filling.
Integrated Ball Lock Connectors
The integrated ball lock connectors allow you to quickly attach your beer and gas ball lock disconnects. We recommend the use of the Duotight Ball Lock Disconnects in gas and liquid to connected to these input and outputs.
Integrated Pinch Valve
The integrated pinch valve is one of the things that makes this unit far superior to other filling machines. The pinch valve enables you to easily remove the beer line for cleaning so the stainless tube, silicone hose and yellow carbonation cap/ball lock disconnect removes completely and can be put into the dishwasher or cleaned in the sink. The pinch valve is mechanically simple and therefore reliable. It is not subject to small particles like hops getting stuck in the device and eliminates the need for pre-filtration. It pinches down on the silicone tube to shut off the flow. This design also enables laminar flow that reduces fobbing. The pinch valve improves reliability, makes it easier to operate and a piece of cake to clean.
Integrated Regulator
Other filling machines require an external regulator that may need to drop the pressure lower than your normal keg dispense pressure. This filler has an integrated regulator which saves time and setup cost. The integrated regulator means you will not damage your machine by accidentally connecting it to a high pressure gas source. You can hook up your gas line without the need for another external regulator or to fool around with your gas supply at all. Just set the integrated regulator once during setup and forget about it.
Multi-Purpose
The long stainless tubes and adjustable height make this device useful for pretty much any bottles up to 30cm heigh or cans up to 27cm heigh. It can also be used for still or carbonated beverages. So this device is useful for wine bottles, beer cans, champagne, crown seal bottles and pretty much any other bottle/can/vessel that has a neck opening greater than 15mm. It can also be used for filling glasses, jars or other vessels.
Fill Profiles
Some other machines require a full calibration to change from one vessel type to another. This machine allows you to pre-save fill profiles depending on what you are doing. Save a filling profile for your 300ml Cans and then save a different filling profile for your 750ml wine bottles. Use our pre-saved presets or alternatively make your own fill profiles with different purge time and fill height. These are also synced with the RAPT.io portal so you can save profiles and share them with friends or deploy to several other devices.
RAPT.io Connected (via Wifi)
As well as all the features above this filler connects to your Wifi and keeps track of your Cans Per Minute (CPM), fill speed and even temperature (if you purchase the external probe separately). It will log all usage information so you can keep track of how your machine is running or even keep track of you staff to make sure they are cycling the machine at an acceptable rate. The connectivity to the RAPT.io portal will enable you to more easily change settings, update profiles and keep track of your fill days so you can historically keep track of how your fill day went and which day you processed each batch.
Low DO Pickup
The quality and longevity of your beverage is often defined by how well you keep oxygen off your product. This filler purges the oxygen out of the can and will enable you to get substantially lower dissolved oxygen.
Wall Mounted Design
This type of can and bottle filler has primarily been designed for wall mounting configuration. This allows you to bring a can or bottle up to the filler from the underside of the unit. To wall mount this unit you can download and print this template.

CLEANING BEER LINES IN KEGERATOR
1. Acquire empty plastic PET bottle (e.g. 1.25L Coke Bottle)
2. Add cleaning solution for a 1L mixture
3. Add warm water to 1L
4. Attach Cleaning Cap to bottle
5. Attach Liquid ball lock disconnect connected to your tap to cap.
6. Turn on Tap with a jug or bucket underneath it to catch the beer/cleaning solution
7. Turn bottle upside down and squeeze (you can pressurise the bottle if you want so you don't have to squeeze, but this is just as fast and easy)
8. Wait until liquid out of tap runs clear, we recommend to wait 5mins with solution in the lines
9. Repeat 7-8 on other taps
10. Empty Bottle and fill with same temperature water, flush lines until you're satisfied there is no more cleaning solution
11. Hook up your beer line and pour away
TRAVELLERS
1. Fill beer from your tap, or if you have a Growler Filler tap or beer gun with a CO2 purge option, use that to purge 3 seconds worth of gas into the bottle (e.g. 1.25L Coke Bottle) to 3cm from the top. Beer will last considerable longer with a purge.
2. With one hand ready to screw the cap on, with your other hand squeeze the bottle until liquid is right on the brim. Then screw the cap on to make a seal.
3. Attach gas ball lock and add CO2 to the bottle to punch out the 3cm at the top of the bottle with CO2.
4. If you only finished half the bottle, squeeze out as much air as possible and fill with CO2.
QUICK CARBONATE
This can also be a great way to force carbonate your beer if its just been transferred to your keg and you don't want to wait! Remember your beer will absorb more CO2 the colder it is.
From: Kegland
PET plastic bottles are readily available and inexpensive. The standard thread for PET bottles for carbonated beverages between 0-3L in size is the PCO 1881 thread. This thread type suits our carbonation caps that you can buy in plastic here or stainless steel.
Historically you would only be able to place a black or grey ball lock disconnect onto these fittings one at a time. This tee piece now enables you to attach both a liquid and gas disconnect to the bottle at the same time so you can essentially use a common PET bottle as a keg.
Note: The PET soft drink bottle and dip tube are not included.

Originating from the USDA-ARA breeding program, Cascade is an aroma-type cultivar bred in 1956 and released in 1972. It was developed by open pollination of a Fuggle seedling. Cascade is the most popular variety in craft brewing and is known for having a unique floral, spicy and citrus character with balanced bittering potential.
AROMA PROFILE: FLORAL, GRAPEFRUIT, PINE
Centennial has become one of the most well-respected hop varieties since being released in 1990. Centennial, named after the centennial anniversary of Washington state, is incredibly well-rounded and useful for bittering, flavour, aroma, and dry-hopping. It quickly developed the nickname Super Cascade for its vibrant citrus and soft pine characteristics. Centennial is the featured hop in legendary IPAs such as Russian River's Pliny the Elder, Founders' Centennial IPA, and Bell's Two Hearted Ale.
It is well suited to Pale Ales and IPAs.
AROMA PROFILE: FLORAL, LEMON, ORANGE, TROPICAL, WOODY
Developed by the USDA breeding program in Washington State and released in 1985 as a high alpha bittering variety, Chinook is a cross between Petham Golding and a USDA male. In recent years, it has found favour as a dual purpose hop in the craft brewing community as a result of its spice and pine aroma characteristics.
It works well at any stage of the boil and in the dry hop and works particularly well in American Pale Ales (APA) and IPA's, but can be used in many styles.
Chinook feature in Stone’s Arrogant Bastard and in addition to Cascade and Centennial in Sierra Nevada’s Celebration Ale – a beer famous for its piney, citrusy character.

A copper immersion chiller is a great piece of equipment for all-grain and extract brewers to cool the wort at the end of the boil. It is immersed into the boiling wort at least 10 minutes before the end of the boil (this will help to sanitise the chiller, although it should be clean before being used) and attached to a cold water source.
When ready to cool the wort, turn on the cold water and it will flow through the immersion chiller and cool the wort.
To increase the rate at which the wort cools you can stir the wort to create a whirlpool. This will cause more of the wort to come into contact with the chiller and cool the wort faster. Make sure to sanitise whatever you use to stir the wort.
You could also use a pump (such as the MKII 25w High Temp Magnetic Pump) to create a whirlpool immersion chiller; made popular by award winning American home brewer Jamil Zainasheff. Here is a link to Jamil's site, Mr Malty, with more details.
An immersion chiller can also be used to pre-chill the cooling water. Just submerge the immersion chiller in an ice bath to to pre-chill the water that ultimately flows into another immersion chiller in the wort. This can be particularly helpful during summer when the groundwater temperature increases.
This chiller comes complete with a garden hose fitting on one end to connect to your garden or kitchen tap, and clear vinyl tubing.
