    Cake Pan Fly Sparge Strainer

    I had considered using a colander but I was concerned about the hole size and the rounded shape of the colander. I was worried that when using the low volume of water during spargeing that the water might form a single stream from the center of the bottom of the colander. The flat bottom of...

    Thanks for the heads up but even after reading that I'm not overly concerned. There are cake pans without a non-stick surface available if any one else was to make one and had a concern about the non-stick surface.

    I’m new to home brewing with just three brews done so far. I jumped right into the deep end of the pool with all grain brewing. I read a lot about the subject before buying my equipment and doing my first brew. One of my biggest concerns was disturbing the grain bed while fly sparging...

    Keg / Carboy Washer (yes another) . . .

    I would think you could use some kind of valve to limit the pressure or bleed off the un-needed pressure if using a bottle washer attachment. I use PBW for washing and Star-san to sanitize. So far it completely cleans my kegs. If I have a feremter with a lot of dried on krausen at the neck...

    Keg / Carboy Washer (yes another) . . .

    So far to clean my beer lines I us a flare fitting and threaded adapter that replace the raiser when I clean my beer lines for my keezer. I had to hake saw off the flare section of the flare fittings. It has the same threads as the tap shank. I connect the end of my beer line that would connect...

    Keg / Carboy Washer (yes another) . . .

    Yea I was a little worried when I first used it. I had a weight on the bottle the first time I started but it works fine without it. To store it I just empty it and reverse the buckets (so they nest) for storage. When I use I only mix up a couple gallons of hot tap water and cleaner.

    Keg / Carboy Washer (yes another) . . .

    I didn't keep a formal parts list but here are some pics of what I used. Got everything from lowes in the plumbing or lawn sprinkler sections. The grey plastic sprinkler riser is 1/2"x18" 2-5 gal buckets - 1 bucket left as is and 1 has a 2" hole drilled center in the bottom (used a door knob...

    Keg / Carboy Washer (yes another) . . .

    Here is my version of a Keg/Fermenter/Beerline/Hose washer. I used a sump pump, a couple of 5 gal buckets from lowes, a few nuts,washers and carriage bolts, some plastic sprinkler fittings & riser and a few brass fittings. I can use this for cleaning my kegs and fermenters with the raiser...

    site glass calibration

    Here is my solution to calibrating the site glass. Its just a strip of aluminum from lowes that I calibrated to the kettle and then used a hack saw to make the marks on it.....if only I didn't have a drunk install the site glass itself :drunk: .....but it still works. I put 3/8" o-rings on the...
