Stainless Steel Mash Paddle - 26"
26 Inch Stainless Steel Mash Paddle
This 26 inch stainless steel mash paddle gives brewers a sturdy, easy-clean stirring tool for dough-in, mash mixing, and general brew-day use. The 26 inch length is a practical fit for many homebrew kettles and mash tuns without being oversized for smaller systems.
Use it when adding grain to strike water, breaking up dough balls, evening out mash temperature, or stirring wort before and during the boil. Stainless steel is durable, simple to clean, and well suited to repeated brewing use.
Best Uses
- Dough-in: helps wet the grain evenly as it is added to the mash.
- Mash mixing: useful for breaking up dry pockets and balancing temperature through the grain bed.
- Brew-day stirring: works for kettle stirring, extract mixing, and other hot-side tasks where the length fits.
- Easy cleanup: stainless steel construction rinses and cleans more easily than porous wood.
Fit and Handling Notes
Choose paddle length based on the depth of your kettle or mash tun and leave enough handle above the liquid for safe control. Stir carefully around kettle edges, false bottoms, brew bags, and temperature probes so you do not snag equipment during the mash.
