I’m gonna throw a Hail Mary and guess potassium chloride.

What do you guys think - gelatin fining in keg or gelatin fining in pressure primary at crash temp?

MoreBeer rules. They constantly put out cool content too, and you can tell they genuinely care about the community. I've dealt with Vito directly a few times, and he's gone above and beyond for me when he didn't have to. One thing I will say - you will receive fantastic support from them if...

I'll update in here, for posterity. Tomorrow is one week since pitch. The spunding valve is set to 25psi now @ 68-70ºF, and still off-gassing (whether or not it's ferm activity or just CO2 breaking out). We'll see what story the gravity tells starting tomorrow. I'll likely plan on crashing...

Hoping so! It's still going, bit by bit. Down to 1.012 today. Not the end of the world if it doesn't reach desired vols via spunding!

Sampled today. It's sitting at 1.016 from 1.053. Tastes lovely, but yeasty (of course). Closed up the spunding valve to 25psi, though I missed the boat for a decent natural carb by a few points.

Just brewed a Vienna-ish lager on Saturday and it's rocking now. 90% Weyermann Vienna, 10% Swaen Melany, 28 IBU with all Perle. Pitched Diamond and it's fermenting at 68ºF now under 15psi of pressure (from the start). Excited to see how this one turns out. Wort tasted excellent. The SPUNDit is...

Interesting. I just watched one of Treehouses YouTube videos and Nate said "...fermentation temperature somewhere in the low 70's". @ 3:52 -

Keep us posted on this for sure. I've visited Bobby a few times for some odd jobs and chatted with him. He's a great dude, and knows what he's doing for sure. Easy to have full confidence in him.

Thanks so much for the info!

Thank you!

I'm curious if my copper inlet and outlets are too out-of-round by now to utilize these

I suppose I would need some kind of barbed solution?

This looks solid, I wish I had the skills or know-how to add the connection directly to the chiller, but a short-run of hose isn't a dealbreaker. Now to find these in my local Lowes.... Cam-locks are also a good option, albeit heavy! @Bobby_M, do you have any insight or suggestions?

Looking to make life easier for me, in a leak-free way. I currently use a small immersion chiller that is connected to vinyl hoses with worm clamps, and they suck. I'd like to add quick disconnects, as I brew in an apartment and it's far easier to rinse in the sink and drain it when not in...
