Ok folks. Yesterday morning I mashed in 10 gallons of a Berliner Weiss, cooled to 120° and then threw a cup of 2-row on top. I then purged with CO2, covered with Saran wrap and purged again and covered in my Igloo cooler. I have been checking temps and they are not too bad but dropping. I...

Afternoon all. I recently bought a brew stand similar to this one pictured below. It is welded on all sides on the bottom and I wanted to add casters to it. Suggestions on what the best way to mount casters at this point? I have thought about 2" wide U-Bolts and attaching them to a plate...

Ok.. I just talked with my LHBS after purchasing a new Blichmann burner (Yeehaw!) and the owner of the shop told me to coat the burner with dish soap and let it dry. He also said to coat the bottom of my stainless pots as well. He said something about keeping the SS "conditioned" and making...
