Hey guys, sorry if this question has been asked before but I've searched and couldn't find anything on it. I'm wondering why does everyone use an erlenmeyer style flask rather than any old round bottom flask for their starters? I can find round bottoms for cheap around here and am wondering if I...

Well I've received my Ward Labs analysis, where do I go from here? Does anything look out of the ordinary? Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

Hey all, After a recent setback on getting a pump for my Ebiab setup, I'm starting to wonder if I really even need a pump. I'm trying to take the K.I.S.S. approach with this build, and am questioning if having a pump is a necessity. I understand recirculating the mash to keep temps even, but...

Hey guys, I'm piecing together my Ebiab setup and need a pump so I googled chugger pump and this is what came up. Hopgoblin.com has these pumps for $102 plus shipping, which seems like a pretty good deal. What am I missing here? Has anybody bought from them? Is this something I should be all...

Long story short, I've got an Irish stout that's been kegged for a few months that finished off just too sweet drink, ending up at 1.022. Can I depressurize it, take the lid off and just dump some amylase enzyme in and then purge the oxygen out? Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

So I've been mulling over wether I want to stick with my original 5 gallon ebiab keggle setup plan or move to a traditional three vessel electric setup. I most often brew 5 gallon batches, but there are a few recipes that I wish I had more of in the pipeline to last longer, which is where 10...

Hopefully these pictures aren't useless, but I've followed wiring instructions, double and triple checked them and the unit still won't power up? Am I missing something obvious or did I get a dud? Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

Hey all, just got my site-glass and bulkhead installed on my keg and was going to fire up some water to see how long a boil was going to take me on my 30k burner. While I was waiting for the water to heat I noticed that the site-glass thermometer combo was leaking. So, I drained the water and...

Hey all, I'm trying to get everything ready for my first all grain brew day this weekend(BIAB) and I'm trying to get my local water report figured out, but frankly, it's all Greek to me! I have thought about saying screw it and just trying my luck with my water how it is(besides removing...

http://www.ebrewsupply.com/shop/ebrew-kits/biab-30a-kit.html Does anyone have any pictures of this kit wired up? Besides the enclosure, element, and some plug receptacles is there anything else this kit needs for a complete single vessel eBIAB setup?

Hey all, I was hoping someone here could help me out with my dilemma. I've been doing extract batches and PM's for the past couple years and am starting to feel a bit limited and ready to move into all-grain, namely, BIAB. A friend of mine hooked me up with an old keg which I've begun converting...

Hey all, August is drawing to a close which means fall will be coming shortly and I'm looking to start doing some brews for the coming cool weather. The big one I'm looking at doing is a pumpkin porter similar to the recipe in Extreme Brewing but I'd like to do it with canned pumpkin only. I've...

Hey all, I have a batch of Caribou Slobber that I brewed last weekend and threw it in a room under the stairs in my basement which usually stays around 66 degrees to ferment. However, when I checked it 24 hours later on Sunday the airlock was bubbling like crazy and the temp in the room was at...

Hey guys, I've been lurking on the board for a good 6 months now, slowly gleaning all the info I could from you "pros" while slowly assembling my equipment. Well, to make a long story short I'm pretty much set with everything I need to stop buying and start brewing. So, over the weekend I...
