I'm saving up for a brewhemoth. I really like your setup. What size thermowell did you use? I plan on getting the chilling coil as well and since the thermowell goes in at an angle I want to make sure I get one that: A. does not hang out on top of the coil and gets false readings based off...

I'm building a new system. I'm wanting to go with a little giant pump. Any recommendations on where to buy?

Well I sold my brutus 10 to a local startup brewery. http://www.luckytownbrewing.com I wish them the best with the startup. Why did I sell it? With time restraints with my new job, and having a little one running around, I never could find the time honestly. Sad excuse, but unfortunately...

I would enjoy using that!!!

Awesome. That'll be the route I go then. Thanks.

Did you have to modify it or did it slide right in? Thanks for the link.

I scored a 62 qt stainless pot made by bayou classic. Im interested in making it into a mash tun. The inner diameter of the pot is roughly 15.5". I'm wondering what is the diameter of the Blichmann 15 and/or 20 gallon false bottom. I'm hoping that one of these will be close enough to the...

Very nice. Great craftsmanship. Nice welds.

I think you're right. I got a ridgid chop saw for $50. It too was in like new condition. Couldn't tell if it was ever used. Sucks that times are hard, but I wouldn't mind getting all my tools before things get better :) I still need a torch set, air compressor with misc pneumatic tools...

I finally got a mig welder. I found a Lincoln mig 140 at a pawn shop. I bought it for $250. BRAND NEW IN BOX!!! Never struck and arc, never plugged in. I never find good deals like that, so I'm really excited. I'm ready to make some mods to the brutus ten. Next year, I'm probably going to...

About asco valves... I bought one 8210g15 the other day off ebay. Got it for $30. Sweet. This is the valve most people use :ban: Today I traded my old mash tun and HLT (coolers) for 2 8215g020 valves. Also cool! My question is purely based on functionality (not brass vs stainless vs...

Ok, I'm in a rush to get the electronics finished before December. My wife is pregnant and the future brewer is arriving in December. I'm trying to find a good deal deal on asco valves (8210G15) and Love controllers. Wanted to get some feedback on where I should look. Thanks for the help.

I know it's been a while, but here is a video showing the brewing system as it is now.

It looks great! good job! :mug:

Like I said, I ordered 2.5" gauges and I got 5. It was either a mistake or an "upgrade". Other than that, quick shipping and I was pleased. I would buy from them again. :mug:
