i agree with Bobby. I got a nice second degree burn on the top of my foot from brewing in Crocs - with socks. I know i'm a fashionista. lol - I got that from opening up a camlock when a hose was filled with boiling water. it dumped right out of the hose and pump right on top of my foot. not my...

I have 90s on the ends of all my hoses, connected to my female disconnects. this works great for me. no kinking whatsoever.

yes, i agree. I had it and it sucked. horrible

I'd like to see this one, too. please.

I have no idea which one goes against the ridges, but it's 50 plates - it's going to chill the eff out of your wort no matter what. My sticker had no such markings. I've done In-1/Out-3 and In-3/Out-1 and In-2/Out-4 and In-4/Out-2 - they all cooled the wort down seriously quick.

I checked out the Bayou Boiler site and didn't see any prices. How much did you pay for yours?

Nice build! So, the SWMBO did all the work? j/k It would've looked better in Carolina Blue.

buy new ones. they are cheap at el wal marto.

Thanks!! I'm getting ready to put together a NG sculpture. So many threads on plugging the 23 jet burners, etc. This one looks perfect!!

Where are you seeing NG burners on the cajun site?

i bent my dip tube so it picks up more on the side instead of in the center. i've never had a single clog - lots of break material and hops make it into my fermenter, but it settles out during fermentation. If you bend your tube and it still is getting clogged, i'd use a nylon bag for your...

I love it! This is truly an elegant approach to our favorite hobbies - building stuff to put beer in! I salute you. Check out kegconnection for your keg/draft needs. they rock and their customer service is top notch!

I also have a sanke 1/2 barrel that i'm thinking about fermenting in. I was actually thinking of brewing 12-13 gallons of a munich helles and just dumping it into the sanke and finishing the whole thing in the sealed sanke. Primary fermentation and then lagering, then carbonation. If it...

I have two batches that are tied for worst. Ed Wort's Pale Ale - ordered from Brewmaster's Warehouse with the Bee Cave Brewery label and everything. Probably would've been fine if I hadn't fermented it at about 85-90 degrees in our spare bedroom during the summer. Tasted like a huge banana fart...

I believe that Paulaner released this beer for the 200th anniversary of Oktoberfest. Hence the special packaging. It's a single 1L can inside of a glass 1L stein (that they use at Oktoberfest). And I think it's actually spelled "Wies'n" Yes, I know it's a lager. And i'm looking for an all-grain...
