Thanks a lot! However I found these RTD probes from Auber that seem like they will be a little more accurate as the probe isn't enclosed by a thermowell. I like this idea a little more, all I need is a 1/2" to 1/4" bushing for what I found. My new problem with this is that I am not sure if...

I have those same burners for my build. I haven't actually started building yet...just collecting everything to do so. So I have a couple questions: How far away from the kettles did you mount the burners and about how long does it take for them to bring your wort to a boil?

I don't have a pic. My plan was essentially to use the original Brutus design except with smaller dimensions to fit my 10 gallon boliermakers and use 1 inch tubing. Think that will work? I figure there wouldn't be anymore than 200 pounds on it at any given time and that is probably a huge...

I'm in the process of collecting things to build a mini-version of Brutus 10. I have the dimensions of my build set out, now I need the steel so I can actually start building. I am going to use 1 inch square tubing since it is cheaper and I feel the two inch tubing is just over-kill. My...

Does anyone here know of a good place to order customized pint glasses? I'm getting married this summer and thought that would be an awesome gift for my groomsmen. Thanks!

What length did you get? What works best?

Hey all, I am in the process of collecting materials to make a Brutus 5 (I am not really ready to make the jump to 10 gallons and am getting married soon so I'm also trying to save some dough) I have been looking around trying to find those short thermowells that I have seen some people...

I would do 2 oz dry hopped in the secondary. Leave it there for about a week, then filter them out when you keg. I did an IPA a little while back and dry hoppped 3 oz. Came out great! Go big or go home!

Its for Rhubarb Festival, which is something put on by a company in my town. This is for the homebrew contest. Isn't carapils often used in place of maltodextrin? Am I mistaken? If I use a crystal malt, which one should I use? Is there a reason for using crystal instead of carapils?

I am making a wheat ale and plan to add rhubarb and cardamom. Here is my extract recipe: SG: 1.042-46 FG: 1.012-1.017 6 lbs. Wheat LME 8 oz. Carapils specialty grain .5 oz Hallertau hops for 60 min. .5 oz Hallertau hops for 2 min. White Labs California Ale Yeast WL001 Rhubarb in...
