    ABOUT ME

  • USN Submarine Reactor Operator
  • I was reading about home brewing on the internet, and asked for a kit for my 21st birthday. I immediately got into DIY, and modified my kettle for a bulkhead valve to accept the counter-flow HX I built. rnrnSince then, I've collected a decent amount of kit. I built a mash tun from a cooler, and got a Blichmann Boilermaker and burner for Christmas. AG all the way!

    It'd probably be fine. I'm a proponent of three week primaries with no secondary, but with a
    good yeast starter and appropriate fermentation temperature, it would probably be fine.Is there
    any specifi...

    While I didn't see a specific application or warning, I don't see the harm. I only plan on
    using them on the HLT side. In addition, lots of brewers (myself included) use brass valves
    that are most def...

    Just to clarify, you need a current source with any RTD. Ohm's law pretty much requires it.I
    hope someone putting together a system involving RTDs understands that.Without this, a small
    added lead res...

    So, I'm not hugely interested in building a full on automated build; plus Kal's system is
    pretty solid looking.What I would like, however, is to do a small automated water measuring
    system for the HLT...

    Digi-KeyThat being said, a 4 wire RTD is much more accurate. A 2 wire is prone to two errors;
    compartment temperature affecting the resistance of your leads, and self-heating due to
    increased current ...

    I visited Holy City today and grabbed a growler full of their Chocolate variety of Notorious
    P.I.G., their bacon porter. It's awesome stuff.Here's their page about it. And, this is what I
    know about i...

  • Posted in thread: Home Depot DIY Water Filter on 02-05-2013 at 01:32 AM
    I always take my filter out after use, and at the very least, shake it out quite well and let
    it sit for awhile before putting it back together. Also, I run at least five gallons through it
    every time...

    So, I just popped open one of my 12-12-12s tonight. Man, I'm disappointed. Under attenuated,
    flat-ish... meh:( Seriously, I just burped cardboard.Also related, I was watching some of
    Stone's videos on...

    Hey Steph, thanks for the reviews, and for being honest! Yeah, barley wine, but maybe the
    bottle I sent you somehow got infected. I've been drinking one every few months, and while
    there's only some b...

    Alright, cracked open CT-LT1s 12-12-12...Appearance: Poured with a medium carb level that
    belied the faint hiss upon cracking the bottle - about a half finger head atop a nice deep
    mahogany beer. Bubb...
