When I built mine following cas3439's build, I used the STC-1000's. Go for it.

This is what I use...http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005Q1APZS/?tag=skimlinks_replacement-20 I didn't pay that much though - I think $20 or so. You might need to shop around.

I realize this is an old thread, but just wanted to thank OP for all your work documenting the process. I have a similar fridge and followed this build VERY closely doing mine over the last couple weeks. It was most useful and the fridge is working great!

I could use a new kettle!

I'll be there - looking forward to it!

I can give these items a good home!

I was converting a NB Extract Kit to a full boil a few months back and asked NB. Here was their reply: The general rule of thumb that I would follow for doing one of our extract kits as a full boil would be to add all of the extract at the beginning (no late extract additions), and to follow...

On my first full boil, I set a towel on fire. When I took the kettle off the burner to add LME, the handles were too hot to handle. Not having pot holders handy (in the garage), I grabbed a towel and apparently got too close to the flame on my burner. The handles never got hot when I was doing...

I use this - works great!

I'm on the night shift for brewing - between the 2yr old, 3mo old and SWMBO, I usually get a late start. Brewed last night from 10:30pm-2:30am. Little groggy this morning - not sure if it was the 5 hours of sleep or the beers I drank while brewing!

This may not be ideal, but its worked for me. Twice, I've "fixed" a smack pack. My first experience with Wyeast, I smacked too hard and blew a hole in the package. It was only my second brew, so I moderately freaked out but came up with what turned out to be a decent solution. I took my spray...

^This! :D

The bottle SHOULD be at 90ish, no? I'm telling them to tilt the glass to a 45. Good thought on the upright storage, I'll add that.

I apologize to anyone who couldn't get the file, somehow had a bad link. I think its fixed now.

All, I've seen a couple discussions on this but I didn't see anything available to just print off and give to a newb. I've been asked to provide some homebrew on a couple occasions where I will not be present and therefore unable to train the uninitiated on how to properly pour a homebrew. I...

Haven't been there yet, it wasn't quite open last time we were in the Nati, but I would try the new Moerlein Lager House If you go, let me know how it is!

Heading to Saginaw this Friday-Sunday on business. With a brief check, Opperman's Cork & Ale is the go to bottle shop, and recommendations on good beer bars/restaurants? Thanks!

I too have an assistant brewer!

Thanks! We like it here! Just got the call from the LHBS, the last of my order is in!

Newb here in Beavercreek, OH! Have most of my equipment purchased and just been doing a lot of research the last few months. Probably fire up the burner sometime in February. Loving the HBT forums, lots of great info! Prost!
