    Keezer Freeze

    That's what I will try, because that is where my ice issue is. It's just the lower 1/3 of the keezer.

    Keezer Freeze

    I have a fan running at the top circulating air and I have an EvaDry, but still having issues. I may need to reseal, or try the fan lower to circulate in the obviously colder areas better.

    Keezer Freeze

    Question to throw out for some feedback....I can't seem to keep my keezer from icing up on the inside. My temp is set to around 40F with my temp controller, but inevitably I end up with a very thick wall of ice inside the keezer and I can't seem to figure out what is causing this. Any thoughts...

    Blichmann Tower of Power

    I have the 240...I guess the part I need to figure out how to use is the power control to moderate power to the unit in order to hold temps.

    Blichmann Tower of Power

    I need some help here...just switched over to electric. I am using a 10gal Blichmann kettle with the Boil Coil and a Blichmann Electric TOP to control. I tried my first go at things yesterday with an extract batch and had all kinds of problems. I have the temp sensor installed in the boil pot...

    Easy & Cheap Stainless Vent Hood

    Has anyone figured a way to make the height adjustable? I have been looking into the Blichmann Breweasy and if I do, I would want the hood up and out of the way until I was ready for the boil, and then ideally I could pull it down over the BK for the boil.

    Electric Brewing - Ventilation

    No windows in this unfinished section of the basement, only an exterior door. That said, the brew section may ultimately get framed in so the short term solution of using the door for makeup air may be exactly that, short term.

    To OP, are you still happy with the 4" fan, or would you do 6" looking back? Ready to pull the trigger!

    Electric Brewing - Ventilation

    Have you expereinced much condensation on this setup, or any issues with water dripping down into kettle from the tote? What size fan are you running and are you doing anything for makeup air?

    Electric Brewing - Ventilation

    To clarify, I am going to do the salad bowl w/ fan to vent, but just rely on the door for makeup air.

    Electric Brewing - Ventilation

    I appreciate all of the feedback...I tend to over analyze things to the point of paralysis sometimes! I am very confortable with what I know, but cautious when I don't. The unfinished area I will brew in has a door to the outside, and I feel that as long as I leave that door ajar during the...

    Indiana 7 Gallon Blichmann Conical Fermenter

    Is this still available? How old is it, and are there any issues with operation, etc?

    Electric Brewing - Ventilation

    I am actually leaning towards replicating the stainless steel bowl setup with an inline fan, but am trying to not overdo it. I don't fully understand how to determine the need for makeup air, and given that I will likely only run any fan at around 300 cfm, I am trying to avoid drilling 2 holes...

    How did you determine your air makeup requirement. It is this piece that has me puzzled and reluctant to pull the trigger. I only need about 220 cfm based on wattage of my boil coil.
