Has anyone tried to whirlpool yet with a boilcoil? Results?

These look awesome.

Abracadabra.

I mean going into its guts and cutting a wire. I haven't been able to find a schematic for the cheaper 3000W+ models. However, depending on how complicated its internals are, it could be as simple as locating the signal wire for the relay controlling the coil or you may have to bypass the entire...

Has anyone tried to use this to control the temperature? Say just trying to hold it at 150 degrees. Results? Googling how these units control the temperature, a few sources state they use Pulse-width modulation, rather than varying the wattage being put out. Basically it assumes some % of...

Same idea here. You guys pitching the full ecy20 vile into 5 gallons? To me ToD isn't too funky and ecy20 sounds like that's what it is going to make, funk. But the hope is for a funky stout that could go over some tart black cherries or cacao nibs and oak. We'll see what happens in a year.

Per their Facebook page. "The limited release for ECY20 BugCounty is approaching (Nov/Dec). A few facts - there is no bulk yeast strain and no Acetobacter in the mix. There will be a total of 20 organisms in the culture: Brettanomyces yeast make up the bulk of the blend (15...

1) Depends on how powerful the flavors are of the beer. You have to taste it every so often till its what you want. (maybe every week or so, then more often when its close to what you want). Some will boil the cubes or at least give them a few soaks to take out the initial super oak-ie-ness of...

Just a suggestion for the sparge arm idea. https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f11/stainless-sparge-arm-idea-446565/ You could boar out the threads and tack a triclover to the center if you wanted it to be sanitary.
