Did you ever end up burying a coil? I am just now learning about geothermal and I was curious if a 50-100’ could buried several feet in the ground could provide enough cooling power solely for fermentation control. Low 50’s for lagers or higher for ales. Still thinking what this might look like...
Welcome! I don’t make wine because I don’t have the patience. With beer, you can enjoy the fruits of your labor in about 5 weeks (sooner if you’re in a rush). You should definitely get into it.
I would stay away from Torpedo. I ordered several torpedo kegs as I do like the design, and I’ve also ordered their stainless picnic taps. The machine quality on both are low quality. The keg posts are wavy and while this hasn’t been a problem yet, I expect it will eventually become a point of...
I agree and will definitely get a report because I’m curious what it’ll say, but I’m wondering if it’s really necessary given that I will be running it through an RO system anyways? I assume I would use RO water for everything at that point, cooking etc. Could my process change based on what the...

I purchased a 14 Gallon SS Brewtech Unitank when they had their Black Friday sale in November. Haven’t even had the chance to use it yet. The machine oil is still on the tank which will serve as proof of that. With the announcement of the 2.0, I want to try and get my money back so I can get...
I have taken a pinch of spent grain and ate it. I read about people making spent grain bread and other foods but haven’t got around to actually doing it. I think some people make dog treats? Curious to hear what other people are doing.
