- 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...Posted in thread: Hybrid Kal + automated water valves on 05-13-2013 at 11:52 PM
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...Posted in thread: Source an RTD on 04-19-2013 at 05:21 PM
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...Posted in thread: Hybrid Kal + automated water valves on 04-18-2013 at 01:08 AM
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...Posted in thread: Source an RTD on 04-18-2013 at 12:47 AM
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 ...Posted in thread: Holy City Notorious P.I.G. Chocolate Clone on 03-05-2013 at 12:43 AM
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

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...Posted in thread: 12-12-12 Wee Heavy Swap and Critique Thread on 01-24-2013 at 12:05 AM
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

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...Posted in thread: 12-12-12 Wee Heavy Swap and Critique Thread on 01-20-2013 at 06:26 PM
