The only problem i've had when doing this was my immersion chiller springing a leak and by the time it was fixed and the extract wort was chilled and in the carboy the AG had been in the MLT about 30 minutes extra. In the end the delay didn't hurt the beer, just caused some stress. My only...

yes, please

I've never personnaly used it but i saw a thread on herewhere people were using this for dual temeperature controll, it seemed to work out for them.

A: has tri-clamps. 304SS B: no triclamps, has thermometer. free shipping to cont. 48. Steel grade not spec'd but could ask seller. other then that they look pretty similar, i'd go with A, depending on shipping, for the tri-clamps

I saw those too, there are a couple threads in the classified section, one here, with quite a bit of discussion

15818 + 5 = 15823 i think i'm getting another carboy so i can have apfelwein in constant supply

i couldn't agree more, last week i got 1 lb each of: Willamette, Cascade, Chinook, Hallertau, Columbus, time to make some hopbombs.

nice project, looks like you've got a pretty sweet setup there. I think it should vent well enough with the fan blowing out right above the bk, and i really don't think cold will be a problem (although that may be relative, i brewed in my garage last saturday and the high was 0*f). You have to...

I've been planing a SMaSH MO/Columbus(or hallertau) IIPA (16 lbs MO/ 16 oz hops) and a SMaSH MO/Columbus(or hallertau) APA (10lbs MO/ 3 oz hops). Not quite what your planning but i think it'll be interesting to compare the 2.

I brewed this saturday and due to an interupted sparge (friends dog jumped the fence and took off for the hills) og came out 1.044. Checked the gravity tonight and it was 1.008. First time I've used a starter and it seemed to work pretty well with the pacman yeast.

when i ordered the ag kit they were out of Wyeast Schelde so I'm using Pacman instead. I don't think I'll get the typical Belgian flavors - instead of using another belgian yeast i went with Paman since i've never used it before and wanted to give it a try. I plan on brewing this kit...

Hello from mandan, I just found this forum yesterday after ordering a brewing kit (should arrive early next week) and searching online for some sound advice. good to know there are local homebrewers around.
