Thanks

I don't seem to notice much particulates making into my boil. I also use a very course crush on my grains and I run the pump full bore on my last few brews with no issue whatsoever. Rex

Freddy nice cone in your kettle. I am going to have to try another brew without my hopspider and see if I can't get a swirl like that. What are you using to swirl with? After putting in my pickup tube and I tried it without the hopspider I had a hop slurry into the primary. However I...

I use the Kindle fire 7 and have had an issue yet.

I just got the amazon fire 7inch. Brand new it is only 49.00. You can't beat the price for an android tablet. Works just fine with the brew boss app.

Yeah I used duct tape for the first few brews but on the colder days I would have condesation and then the duct tape would slip a bit and I would find myself with my finger on the sight glass. :-)

I am using the exchillerator counterflow chiller. On my first batch it was a hop slurry. I then picked up the hop spider from Duda Diesel but to be honest I don't like it. The flow rate through it is just horrible. I really need to do some tests brewing a batch with and without it and see...

I liked the idea so much I replied twice. :-)

Mcgimpkins that is a great idea! I can clean everything else while the lines are cleaning. Thanks.
