Unibräu Tri-Clad Kettle + Grain Basket

✓
Designed and assembled in Vancouver, BC.

The original Unibräu brewing vessel: a heavy-duty Tri-Clad brew kettle paired with the Unibräu stainless grain basket. Together they form a complete all-in-one mash and boil vessel, the foundation of the Unibräu electric brewing system.

Available in 10G, 20G and 30G while current stock lasts. The kettle and basket are sold together as a matched set.

How it works

Mash in the grain basket inside the kettle. Recirculate wort from the kettle back over the grain bed through the basket's 1.5" Tri-Clamp port for clear wort and consistent mash temperature. When the mash is done, lift the basket, let it drain, sparge, and boil in the same kettle.

One vessel handles mash, lauter and boil, so there is less equipment to set up, move and clean.

Tri-Clad kettle

The kettle is 304 stainless steel with a polished exterior and brushed interior. The tri-clad base spreads heat evenly and works on induction, gas or electric heat sources, so the kettle can be used with a Unibräu element and controller or on a burner.

Four welded 1.5" Tri-Clamp ports accept Unibräu elements, thermowells, valves, recirculation fittings and other Tri-Clamp accessories.

Unibräu grain basket

The grain basket is 304 stainless steel with a laser-cut false bottom sized for efficient lautering and clean recirculation. A 1.5" Tri-Clamp port on the basket connects your recirculation or sparge line directly to the top of the grain bed.

The 10G basket includes a stainless retention ring and screws. The 20G and 30G baskets include hoist lugs for lifting heavier grain bills.

30 gallon Kettle with Grain Basket

Lid came in with a dent in it and the grain basket had arc strikes on several spots on the rim of the grain basket. For the money I spent on this, Id expect a little bit better.

Fun system

Great. Went a little crazy with the setup and ran it as a RIMS but it handled it well. Did get a little too much grain through the basket and scorched my element but will adjust milling next time. Thank you.

First batch with Unibräu Grain Basket

I purchased this to simplify my brew day going from a three vessel system to a BIAB + sparge setup that will still make 7.5 gallons post boil in a 10 gallon pot. I was a bit skeptical that this would work, but I was pleasantly surprised how well the grain basket fit into my Spike 10 gallon pot and how thoughtfully it was designed. Lifting the basket out of the pot, I could easily sparge to 9 gallon pre boil and I ended up getting a better efficiency than in my previous setup.

Awesome Upgrade

Actually, I ordered the 20-gallon Kettle and Grain basket. I have had the 10-gallon Unibrau system for several years and loved that I could easily upgrade the system as I grew due to it's modular design. So, when it came time for me to upgrade to a larger system, Unibrau was really the only choice I had, because I was spoiled.
I received the upgrade about 8 days after I ordered it. Brau Supply got the order out the day after I ordered it, but with customs and having it sit for several days in Seattle, then Tacoma... it was 8 days.
The upgrade came unharmed due to some aggressive packaging. I finally brewed my first batch yesterday and it was amazing. All my attachments were easily repurposed with the exception of my brew bag and hop spider. The new kettles come with 5 Tri-clamp ports and that makes for some great configurations. It took me only 45-minute longer to brew a10 gallon batch as it did for me to brew a 5 gallon batch in my previous 10-gallon kettle. The markings on the kettle are clear and pretty concise. I always used a Brewbag as a strainer in the 10-gallon kettle and even though my old Brewbag was wide enough to use in this system, it was not deep enough. So, I brewed without a bag and with the new laser-cut grain basket (false bottom) it worked out great. We searched for stray grains in the wort after sparging and I would say that it was less than a dozen.
It really was a flawless transition from the 10-gallon kettle to the 20-gallon kettle, which is exactly what a modular system is supposed to do.
I downloaded the 20-gallon Unibrau equipment profile and inserted it into Beersmith 3.0 with no modifications to get a baseline and it was spot-on on every level. My efficiency in the mash was 82.1% which is what I normally get in my 10-gallon system. Oh year, and it is cool looking too.
As I looked for opposing things to say or things I would change about this upgrade, I simply could not find any. Thanks Brau Supply for yet another fantastic product.
