The one I'm looking at is 17.7" X 21.4". The element port would be mounted at the 2.5" mark with a 2" port. Using those dimensions and a depth of 3.5" puts me at about 3.7 gallons to just submerge the element. It's cutting it close but I think it will work. I usually rack 5.5 to 6.0 gallons to...

95% of my batches are 5 gallons but I occasionally brew 10 gallon batches to keep up with summer demand. I'm debating whether to buy a 15 or 20 gallon eBIAB setup. Do you think I'd have any problems with doing the 5 gallon batch in a 20 gallon kettle? Thanks!

Reviving an old post, here goes. I'm looking at the same 15 gallon Spike kettle for my eBIAB setup. Two questions: Do you have any concerns about the element being exposed to air? 95% of the time, I do 5 gallon batches but sometimes 10 gallons. From what I can gather, doing 10 gallons in the...

Our local brewery has given our brew club a unique opportunity to brew on their equipment. Altogether, we're producing a 1300 liter batch and will each take home 1-2 carboys of wort. The idea is that everyone goes home and tweaks one of their carboys and we all get back together in a couple...

Have you looked at Simgo? They sell the individual keg parts. Kegs

Looks like cheerios behind it to me.

I'm currently racking out of my bottling bucket using the old fashion siphon. I saw this thread a couple of months ago and went to my LHBS to find the spigot but they didn't have anything that remotely resembled the one in this thread. I plan on placing an order with Northern Brewer later this...
