    Cannular pros/cons

    I bought the Cannular, but have only messed with it for 3-4 cans so far. Seem like a good unit. It will be pretty easy to adapt to the regular 16oz cans (left) vs the 16.9oz cans the machine is set up for. Just add some washers/spacer on the table that raises the can up. They use the same...

    Bourbon Barrel Question

    Put cheap whiskey in it and shake it up a couple times a day for a week and add beer! We have done it three times with 2 , 5 gallon BBLS. First beer was amazing. Second beer in same BBL wasn't as good. Very Oaky. We even stored whiskey in it. The whiskey we stored in it improved greatly...

    Reflectix - how to you attach it to your kettle?

    I added magnets where the edges of my reflectix meets. Just click them together. I used the reflectix foil tape to seal all my edges up. We dont boil with it on, so not sure how tape would hold up.

    Auber CUBE 2E Temperature issues

    We have the same controller and have no issues. I use a seperate thermometer as well for exact mash temps and they match up. Sounds like your probe is bad. Email them, they are pretty good when emailing abut technical stuff.

    Bump for a cool system. Very similar to ours, just smaller. Do you boil with the reflectrix in place?

    False bottom, dead space volume question

    There can be issues with recircualton if the amount of deadspace makes your "effective mash" above the false bottom too thick. We have dealt with it. Does it effect the beer, doubtful, but effects the making of the beer. We couldn't get good enough flow to recirculate. We combat it now by...

    Cannular vs Oktober SL1

    Check ebay. There is a couple of sellers offering cans with free shipping for the 16.9oz Cannular cans, they may have the shorter 16oz the SL-1 uses. They are $99 for 207 with lids free shipping. You may be able to uses these same cans with some adjustment/modification to the SL-1 table.

    Cannular vs Oktober SL1

    Thanks for the response. I really like the SL-1, but the cost difference is significant! I think the claims about the Can Fresh cans being different/propreitary have been blow out of proportion. I could be wrong, or just slow,but I have been doing some more research on the Cannular seamer and...

    Cannular vs Oktober SL1

    Looking into a canner and trying to justify the SL-1. I have read about the cannular only accepting Can Fresh cans, but you can buy these Cannular cans off ebay from 2 different sellers. $92/for 207 shipped. They even have the 360 mouth available $99 for 207 shipped. I know the cans the SL1...

    STC-1000 + Temperature Controller (Brews By Smith System)

    Does this have/control both a heating and cooling outlet on the back? I think it's called dual stage?
