    Looking at buying UniBrau (BrauSupply) - Pump Hook Up Question for users

    The only place I see to put the sensor is using a t-fitting on the pump output. You can see some pictures of that setup on brausupply web site.

    Cooling Coil Freezing Beer

    Do you have a temps controller on the AC unit? (like an inkbird) With the probe in a thermowell inside the fermenter will help to prevent the ice formation.

    Which Kveik for Beer Styles?

    Boil kettle condenser - no overhead ventilation needed

    Little update from my condenser, it seem to work. The controller temps stay around 210F and the water temps output around 140F. No steam around the lid but drip a little between the silicone tube and the lid. I think the problem is comming from bad lid seal and the exhaust tube height too low...

    Boil kettle condenser - no overhead ventilation needed

    Thanks, you confirm what I thought. It give me two options depending what I found at the hardware store. At the start, I never considered the high pressure tube before I seen a setup in the topic after the post of Brundog.

    Boil kettle condenser - no overhead ventilation needed

    The vinyl tube rated to 30 psi, at the store on the display it showed 60 psi...damn. I have already use this kind of tube on my water filter with no issues, yet... I will give it a try, if it burst I will go for reinforced vinyl (200 psi). 👍 Thanks for the comments.

    How do you harvest wild yeast? Let sit apple juice in the fermentor and wait that it start to make bubble by itself?
