Some unsolicited pointers. I suggest brewing up a "nonsour?" Belgian that you are turning I to a Flanders. Let it ferment out then toss that into the barrel with wild yeast/bacteria you want. If you ferment primary in the barrel you lose a lot because the barrel has to be so full and the...
The info I was looking for! Seems like you can go fairly cheaper with electric when. It comes to a table. It might be more worth my time to just worry about converting my kettles for the pumps and just stick to the turkey fryers for a bit.
End goal is to get venting in my basement...
Hey all,
Not sure if there are good guides for building up a brew sculpture but I'm in the process of making one slowlly. My question is where do I go next? My goal is fulling automated electric HERMS or RIMS.
Currently I do batch sparging and have two turkey fryers. I have a 10g cooler for...
I highly suggest a listen into a Basic Brewing radio episode on 9-17-15 about Small Barrel brewing. It is about sour barrels but the guest speaking about taking care of barrels and using them for things like RIS and such before souring.
Since you are not going to have anything in the barrel...
I use a larger plastic container with lid that can hold my wort chiller, cleaning supplies and addatives (salts/irish moss). It is handy as I can just grab that container on Brew Day. For smaller stuff that isn't needed as much I have a plastic drawer that holds extra kegging supplies, caps...

Why do I...
Sorry to red a dead thread but I have a question.
I just busted my GE 7.0 cu which I had a coller for. The coller measures 36.75x20 3/8.
Do you think my coller would fit on this one? Its 3/4 think wood so there in wiggle room. Thanks.
