I brewed a high gravity batch if a citrus wheat using: 6lb 2 row 6lb white wheat 1lb munich 1lb rice hulls Cascade and citra hops added throughout a 60 minute boil, and 1oz of dried orange peel was added at the end of the boil. I mashed at 154 for 60 minutes, then fly sparged prior to the boil...

I'm planning on brewing a citrus wheat this coming weekend. I've made a few variations of this recipe and have really enjoyed the orange flavor, but would like for it to have a little higher OG than what my previous recipes have had. That being said, here's what I've come up with. Those of you...

About a year ago, I bought a bunch of quick disconnects for my brew system. I was fairly sure that the company was named "Power Flow Dynamics". They had bunches of very reasonably priced disconnects in a variety of materials, including aluminum, which is what I bought..Does anyone know of the...

Hey guys, I just found that SWMBO got me a gift certificate to KegCowboy for Valentines Day. That being said, I'd like to upgrade the burners on my brew rack. I'm currently running a two tier RIMS system with small bayou classic burners (from turkey fryers at Lowes) on propane. With these...

I was planning on brewing saturday, but because of the weather, it would be better to brew tomorrow. I did a yeast starter this morning around 0500, so by the time I am ready for it, the starter will have been on the stir plate about 30 hours. If I use the whole starter instead of cold crashing...

I've done a bit of searching and have seen several photos of guys using a sanke keg as their MLT. However, some of these show the kegs being insulated and some do not. I've been using a converted cooler as my MLT, but the heat has finally started to deteriorate the inner plastic and it is...

I know that there are a bunch of DIY threads on various mini-fridges being converted into kegerators, but I haven't found my specific question being addressed, so I'd like some help. SWMBO has agreed to my moving a kegerator out of the garage and into the house. For the last few years, I've...

I've been brewing all grain for awhile, but have never worked with harvesting yeast or making yeast starters. As I do 5 gal batches, I've always just used WL liquid yeast to get things going. However, I'd like to do an Imperial Stout, and the recipe calls for pitching onto a whole yeast cake...

I've finally got my new two tier RIMS brew stand almost complete and I'm getting ready to start tuning the electronics. I'm using the Auber 4352 PID for controlling a 1500w element in the RIMS tube. My question (and I've tried searching for my answer already) is this...when I do the Auto-tune...

Hey everyone, I'm looking for a bit of advice. I'm in the planning stages of building a RIMS system and I'm debating the merits of a single tier vs. a two tier system. My issue is that I can only afford a single pump at this point. I was originally planning a two tier build, with the pump...
