I am building a 2 teir herms system, and the frame work is almost complete. My plan is to automate the HLT, and mash out of my converted cooler. Question on the temp probe for the LOVE controller. Where should it go? I would imagine closer to the flame would be the best bet. Also has...

I purchased 5 pinlock Kegs. The price was right, but I never really thought thru what I was going to use them for. I am thinking about using them for fermentors as I already have 6 ball lock kegs. None of them hold pressure, one of them has been welded, the weld doesn't seem to be leaking...

I am planning on a few new toys for this weekends brew day. I am going to make the transition to AG but I still need a couple of key elements (full size kettle and fryer). I want to make my water cooler mash tun tomarrow. Does anyone see any problems doing a partial mash with it? Seems...

Hey guys I am a 3rd year brewer up here in Washington State, been lurking around the forums for awhile as a guest. Should be fun to get to know a few fellow brewers. I bought my home brew kit the day I turned 21, best decision I ever made. Lots of time for brewing in the rainy Skagit...
