  I forgot to add that I use fermcap this time. Still the same issue. I have never had the
  banana/fruity ester flavor in my beers that you are encountering. I will try the next time to
  not use the fermw...

  I have a weird issue that happens when I temp control. I would love to have a time lapse camera
  on my temp readout and on the carboy so I could actually see what is causing it. I use a chest
  freezer w...

  It was a 150 rest. All-grain. 85% 2-row, 10% white wheat, 5% crystal 20. I realize it is in
  their attenuation range but I typically get in the low to mid teens on a beer of this sort.

  Long story short, I am using WLP007 (a heavy flocculating yeast) on a 1.071 OG beer. At around
  1.022 I transferred (in hindsight too early) to secondary to start dry hopping. It has been two
  weeks and...

  Doh! I'll look for MPT (need to figure out that size) to 1/4" barb. I forgot I had adapters in
  place to hook my garden hose to the current setup. Thanks all for sanity check.

  The picture below is from the MoreBeer beer filter. I already have the same filter and all the
  other parts except the Male Garden Hose to what looks like a 1/4" barb. Can't find it in my
  searches. Any...

• Posted in thread: Anyone have a Hanna 96811 Digital Refractometer? Any tips for accurate readings? on 05-16-2012 at 04:42 PM
  Link to the refractometer: wanted to post up and see if anyone out here in HBtalk land has
  one of these? I have one and, frankly, I don't trust it 100%. Here's my typical procedure when
  I go to use ...

• Posted in thread: Homemade hop back on 04-27-2012 at 10:33 PM
  I am planning in hunting at the depot to try and build a hop back. I believe my best shot for
  how I want to do this is with PVC. For this reason I will be using this after the chiller.
  Anybody run a h...

  Looks sweet!! are you going to put a lid on it or is it gravity feed?While I have a lid I don't
  plan on using it. I will just gravity feed into the pump and over to the plate chiller. Being
  before the...

  Thought I would post up a few pics of my homemade hop back that I just finished. Basically it's
  a 2qt Polarware bain marie with some fittings welded onto it. I haven't done a brew on it. Plan
  to use i...
