I could use a little advice on this semi-beer related project. I'm installing a 120V/30A outlet (TT-30R) for a camper. I'd also like it to serve as an outlet for an electric HLT. I'm recycling pieces from an old hot tub feed. So far I have a 220V/50A breaker in the main panel and a...

I've read and read, but I can't quite find the answer to my issues. I'm hoping someone here has a similar arrangement and can help. History: Until recently, my brewstand had one old turkey fryer burner with the stock (unknown HP) regulator. Heating strike water has been very slow (12gal =...

I decided to make some root beer for the kids. A little extract, some sugar, a keg, and some gas. Easy, right? Apparently not as easy as I thought.... After a week at 12psi, it had no carbonation. Didn't expect much this early, but I did expect something. So I decided to use the 24 hour...

Below I have copied the recipe and my working notes from BeerSmith. All look good to me, but I'm green to AG. If you guys wouldn't mind taking a look at it and tell me if it looks pretty normal for time, temperatures, etc. Also, During the process it seemed like I was needing two boil pots...

About 3 months ago I posted about a then 3 month old kit Oktober fest. It had a really funky taste (not green) and I was sure it was a goner. I wanted to pitch it but since I had room in the fridge, I decided to let it age and see what happened. At about month 4, it became drinkable. A...

Just kidding... :D Seriously though. Does the AA content of a hop change season to season or based on growing conditions such as fertilizer, water, etc? I'm curious if I spend the money to have my hops AA tested, will they be the same next year? next yield?

I'm fairly certain I have had an infection, but not 100%. Here's the story, you tell me what you think I am experiencing. I started by "brewing" an IPA. It was an all-grain kit with pre-made wort. Smelled good, fermented good (70*), kegged good. A few weeks later, I made an oktoberfest...

A beer serving robot!!! http://www.engadget.com/2008/03/12/chassis-the-beer-pouring-robot-gets-paint-job-even-more-lovable/

I just finished brewing my first all grain last night, and I though I'd share my recipe/thoughts/experiences. This is kind of a stream of consciousness post so if it doesn't make sense, HAHB and re-read. - AG is so much cheaper than extract or PM. ~$20/5 gal. - All grain takes about 2 hrs...

For the auto siphon haters. Gently slip a a 1/2" block of wood under one side of the carbuoy and siphon from the low side. You'll get all the beer worth having, and the autosiphon won't wiggle. On my next ferment, I'm going to try putting a 1/2" block under one side of the carbuoy while...

I ran a PW company for 3 years. The base of most professional house wash mixes is 0.75-1.00% bleach (on the wall). 1:3 (1.34%) is a bit too strong (unless you are buying dollar store bleach) and you risk killing plants and chalking siding. Add a good bleach stable surfactant and you can clean...

I had intended to send an Arctic Red, a still and a sparking apfelwein, and an ale yeast ocktoberfest. Alas, at the deadline the apfelwein was STILL fermenting away (after 4 weeks...) and the ocktober was horribly green despite 4 weeks in keg. So, if you got mine, you got A/R. I hope you...

I found this list today while googling for SweetWater and I thought it might be a useful list of beers/prices to have. I don't know/recommend the store, so don't ask me... http://www.greensbeverages.com/keg-atlanta.shtml

My LHBS sells kegs with the whole top cut off (no handles, like a drinking glass). He swears that people who buy them like them much better that a traditional top cut out since there are no cracks to clean, etc. Any thoughts on that vs. the traditional circle cut? It certainly would seem much...
