Micro Pipework (Small Top & Bottom Overflow)

I brew a lot of batches between 2.5 - 3.5 gallons, and this pipework is perfect for that. It allows the top plate of the mash tube to sit perfectly at the top of the grain bed, which you cannot easily do with the standard pipework. I would definitely recommend if small-batch brewing is part of your brewing process!

I ordered the micro pipework because I generally make 4 gallon batches that generally require about 10 pounds of grain. This seems to be right below the lower limit of the standard grainfather pipework. That being said it seems that the micro pipework is at it's upper limit with a 10 pound grain bill. Perhaps a medium pipework is needed. If your grain bill is under 10 pounds this should work for you but if you're over then stick with the standard pipework.
