Thanks for the reply. What is the model of the controller you use? Is the short cycle delay a pretty standard feature? Its not listed one way or another on my LHBS website. Would that be the "set independent differentials... to protect your heating and cooling devices" feature...

My current kegerator uses the older R134a refrigerant, but I am looking to turn that into a fermentation chamber and build a keezer. I am seeing a lot of the new freezers use R600(a) instead which is butane, like whats in lighters and torches. Walmart for example has this warning on the Arctic...

Did my best to scan this but has anyone got the dimensions/keg numbers for any of the 3.5-3.6 cu ft chest freezers? They would need a high collar but I am cramped for space in my new place and seriously considering this as an option if i could get 3 ball locks in it with a ~12 inch collar. I am...

Busy brew week, have some time off before starting a new job next week so: :mug: Yesterday I put together my first Mead using Bray's BOMM technique using alfalfa / clover honey blend and Wyeast 1388. Today did an English Porter. Hit my numbers on Mash temp, volume, and PH so naturally I...

In coquitlam myself. I use beyond the grape in port moody, and barleys homebrew in new west. And Dan's on east hastings if desperate... I used Hopdawgs when i lived in kamloops but they have changed hands since I used them so I cannot vouch for them anymore.

Brewed up the ESB today. Hydrometer sample was fantastic! Looking forward to this one.

Just finished cleaning up from brewing a Mild Porter (got a late start), first brew with the igloo 10g mash tun my wife got me for Christmas. Went well possibly the least amount of cursing ever for a brew day. Sunday will be my latest attempt to perfect my ESB recipe...

After a long year+ hiatus I brewed this today. Stove top all grain. Ace of Saisons Batch Size: 15.00 L Ingredients Amount Item Type % or IBU 5.00 lb Bohemian Floor Malted Pilsner (2.0 SRM) Grain 72.5 % 1.00 lb Wheat Malt (2.0 SRM) Grain 14.5 % 0.40 lb Caramunich II (46.0 SRM)...

hobby...obsession....addiction..... welcome don't worry about the harry potter, we liked it so much we got our own fang, a Neapolitan Mastiff or Neo (they drool, a lot it was a big problem on set you will learn if you ever go to the studio tour in London.)

agreed my preferred glass for tasting and drinking also the tulip pint is a good standard that being said even in a real English pub in London most beer comes in a standard shaker pint glass these days

In general if you simply say to any business I would like to buy some of your {{insert product here}} the only question they will have is cash debit or credit. Just keep it simple. What does it matter why you want the grain? When ever I go somewhere that doesnt normally do those kind of sales I...

18 for coopers is a little steep. The grocery stores sell them here for 15 sometimes they go on sale for 12. Try your local large box grocery or dept. Even super store sells a brand of pour and stir kits for about 12.

Just brewed this based it off some research in the direction that Irish home brewers and craft brewers are taking the Irish Red: Style: Irish Red Ale TYPE: Partial Mash Taste: (35.0) Recipe Specifications -------------------------- Boil Size: 6.47 gal Post Boil Volume: 5.28 gal Batch Size...

Just watched the first ep of chop n brew. I subscribed even though you put coriander in beer (which is bad enough) but calling it an Irish Red?!? Pog mo thon!

Hmmm I plan on serving this beer to everyone at the company I work for. They have come to expect better than craft quality from me. Has anyone actually used puffed wheat like this? Its for a Kilkenny style red/cream ale. I want a nice thick head after going through my make shift sparkler tap...

I am not able to locate torrified wheat any where near me. But I do have an unopened bag of puffed wheat. Ingredients list whole grain wheat and nothing else. Is this really the same thing? There is no husk on it if that matters. I can take pictures when I get home from work. If it is...

An infection from the fly was a very unlikely possibility. When you pitch yeast you are literally pitching hundreds of billions of live yeast cells. The chances of a few thousand bacteria on a fruit fly being able to out compete the yeast is slim. In fact if you did get an infection I would not...

Awesome figured you'd be ok. I agree you need to give it a cool name. When a bung got into my blackberry porter I called it stopper plopper purple porter. And yes the beersmith recipe includes #6.5 rubber bung 20 days primary

Hopdawgs.ca is the only place i will order from. They are about a 75 minute drive away so shipping is cheap and its here in 36 hours. They are in Vernon BC. Check them oot eh (sorry just screwing with the Americans that lurk on this thread. Nobody talks like that)

they sell single use nylon mesh filters that fit over your auto siphon for this purpose. I wouldn't trust that the grain bag is sanitized properly I only use those things pre boil. My LHBS gives the mesh filters away so there is no reason for me not to use them.
