Your LHBS may charge more than you want to pay, but if people don't support them they will go away.

+5=4101.........

Finally a new brew club is getting started here. please check out http://bigcountryhomebrewers.googlepages.com/home for more information.

All you need is one of these$10 a spare regulator $30 and about $5 worth of hardware store fittings i built mine for well under $20 with a regulator i already had on hand.

If buying with a mind to re-use bottles watch out for Full Sail.... I was blind-sided with a 6er of twist tops from them.

Liquid yeast is SLOW in my experience last batch took 3 days to start the starter

Yep +1 for research. What better way to decide what to brew next. also anytime I am low on bottles for an upcoming or aging brew.

I just lost 2+ hours and only played 3 times

63 second try

I just measured mine. It is 13.5" to the top of the disconnects for the 2.5 gallon and 17" for the 3 gallon

Abilene TX I think it may be just about anywhere. But it is not so easy to find place that stock it. 3/8 coper here for 20 feet you are looking at $60 plus at HD. For stainless I was quoted $1.40 per foot at a local plumbing store. It may have reflected a discount since I was in uniform at...

Look for stainless steel. I found that 3/8 inch stainless here is half the price of 3/8 copper. works the same or better uses the same compression fittings. But you will have to use a spring type tubing bender. and now i get no corrosion. I use it for a prechiller and a CF chiller.

your (or theirs) math is a bit off.... 1 liter = 33.8 US fluid ounces so .946L is 32 oz .750L is 25 oz

Right now scrap prices are sky high stainless is $1 per lb. an empty keg weighs 30lbs

Does anyone know if these pumps can be used with a speed control or will that bur out the motor.... Just a thought it may be better to use that way than restricitng the fluid lines. :confused:
