  A flask works better if you try to do multi-step starters, it is easier to decant a erlenmeyer
  flask than a beaker. For a single step starter either should work fine.

• Posted in thread: whats the difference in gas line sizes? on 05-02-2013 at 10:45 PM
  For a home setup no difference. As for why it is blue it is because they put blue dye in the
  plastic. I have used red, blue and clear no difference.

• Posted in thread: Questions about March Pumps answered by the Factory! on 11-28-2012 at 01:13 AM
  Sorry to butt in here but is there any reason why it has to be 3 phase? As long as the pump can
  do what you want it to you should be able to drop a single hot leg to run single phase
  equipment , no? I...

  Keep in mind you will not be putting the whole weight of the batch on one sensor... you need yo

  I usually have an extra keg or two kicking around that is full of either Star San or PBW. I
  *try* to flush the line with PBW between kegs or if it's not going to be used for a while i
  fill it with PWB...

  lol - I have NEVER cleaned the lines. Been running for 2 years. Longest is 30 days without a

  accumulate making...

  My experience with Belgians is they tend to stall for a while and then magical pick up again a
  week or two later. Agitation is probably your best bet, but avoid letting fresh air in, or you
  risk exces...

  Consistent (between batches) is more important than how vigorous. If you get dms do a longer
  boil, or cool quicker or (the secret nobody seems to know about) agitation. Yes if you have a
  pump and run ...

  I say basically the same thing all the time to my local club. Ag adds about 45 min for me, the
  larger scale (full boil) is where the extra time is...
