Features:
- Before use:
a) Ensure the spear is fitted to the bypass hose on the MEND Brewstar.
b) Ensure that the bag contains the required amount of fungi high and has the
spear pushed through to the bottom of the bag and is centred in the inoculum
(The rope can be half hitched around the reducing nipple on the top of spear
to prevent the bag and spear from becoming separated).
- The Spear Kit assembly is then suspended
in the middle of the brewing tank, near the surface , with the
drawstring pulled tight and tied off to a suitable hitching point.
Note: It is suggested that the bag be kept near the surface to
prevent it from clogging the intake port of the brewing tank
- Note:
To achieve a tighter seal with the drawstring on the spear
it may be easier if the drawstring at one end is knotted
to form a loop and the other end of the drawstring is threaded
through it.
- Upon immersion, the Fungi High is dry and
the bag may prove difficult to immerse, at this point the bypass
tap can be opened slightly to allow aerated water to wash through
and wet the substrate.
- It is recommended that the bag be monitored
until it has thoroughly been wetted.
- Once the bag has settled into position,
the tap can be opened to one third and water allowed to circulate
through the inoculum for the 24-hour brewing period.
Packaging:
- The
kit is supplied in a labeled cardboard box.
- Dimensions: 100cm x 12cm x 12cm.
- Weight: 800
grams.
Mode of Action:
- The
pump is powered by 240-volt AC and is supplied with a 15-amp plug.
The pump is a centrifugal pump and, for best results, should be positioned
as low as possible when priming the system, ie. level with the brewing
tank outlet.
Information:
- The Bag is designed to contain the inoculum
but general wear and tear may result in stitching or material failure.
Ensure that the bag is thoroughly checked prior to use and, if
necessary, a replacement sourced.
- After use the bag should be
thoroughly cleaned and allowed to dry prior to reuse.
