I put my fingers on the back side of the vinyl tubing and when I can see my fingerprints, it's clear enough for me.

 

I use a 100qt. mash tun for 10 gallons and a John Holmes filter.

Last year, we used only my 150 qt for our fresh hop IPA.

This year I intend to bump the ABV from 5.5 to 8%.  So I'll have to use both my 70 and 150 qt to hold the mash.

To drain into the grant, I just plunk the 70 on top of the 150.  I have done this for the Samiclaus clone I did at 17% ABV with a 100 lb grist.

 

I'm not going into detail, but to my perverted mind it sure looks like some XXX mashtun action goin' on there.

OK... NOW we can move this thread to the PH!
