    I never got to all in one brew systems, I had to try to deal with one and successfully made some beer.

    Main issue for me was the inconsistent results but it may be my hands.

    For boil off there are usually power settings so sometimes the larger loss is caused by forgetting to re-select the lower one.

      Yeah, I think I had the power too high. It’s a new-to-me system and is stronger than my previous (heat stick and a big pot). Lesson learned.

        One of the first few brews on the system I was helping to get started (and teach about brewing new guy) ended with boil off of about 1/4 of the volume. We then discovered that it had lower settings - 2000 wats was too much.
