I've never done straight orange juice but my last pilsner had the juice and meat of 18 oranges and their zest thrown in at the end of the boil. Turned out pretty well. somewhere in Germany someone is screaming in reinheitsgebot

Well I had already ordered from NB by the time I saw this. Noted for the next batch though, thanks for the heads up!

Yep, they appear to still be taking orders, but shipping is looking likes its 6 days out. Guess I'll just have some extra of some of my grains. Looks like ill have to clear off a shelve in the brew crave. Thanks!

So with all this corona crap going around my local Northern Brewer is closed. They are still taking online orders though so I figured I'd give that a shot for getting some grain for a batch of beer. I seem to be running into a problem though, their website only allows you to order grain by the...

Here's were my design is at right now, still have some tweaking to do as well as mitering my corners.

Those look like my welds, lol. A grinder and paint make me the welder I aint:D

What can I say, I like fire. lol

I'll probably do a rims tube at some point down the line, but i think i'll stick with my blichmann for my BK. If the next house i buy has room for it in the basement I plan on building an indoor brewery and running off natural gas.

Thanks, I'll have to pick some of those up!

Nice, I like it. Pretty simple way of doing it really. I have a feeling I was overthinking it. lol What casters are those? Do they fit right into the tubing?

I've had no issues with polyvinyl lines. The ones going from MT to BK and BK to fermentor will discolor over time but other than that no issues with flavor. I'm upgrading all mine to silicon right now but only because I'm also redesigning my stand and the old lines are cut too short for the new...

I'm currently designing a new brew stand to replace my old wooden 3 tier setup. My new design is going to be a 2 tier set up with the HLT and MT on the top and a pump running the HLT to the MT and gravity feeding the MT to the BK. The problem im running into with the design is how to mount my...

Ozone can cause respiratory irritation, if you try it out just be sure to have good ventilation. Also iirc ozone breaks down in water fairly quickly, so you might not have much time where it's viable as a sanatizer.

Thanks, ill give that a shot. Makes sense that it should work as the IC usually gets in the way and prevents me from getting the wort stirred well. I'm planning on brewing again in the next week or so, ill let you know how it works out.

Its the Northern Brewer brand, pretty solid kettle

The pick up tube extends maybe 1.5" in from the kettle wall. I've tried whirlpooling but seeing as im using a immersion chiller and "Whirlpooling" with a spoon to stir it doesn't work so well for me.

So I have a NB Megapot 1.2 (8 gal) with a ball valve and a 90* pick up tube and it seems to pick up every last bit of trub from the boil kettle when I drain it into a fermentor. Any ideas on how to fix this? I've tried the SS pot scrubber on the pick up tube but that seems to clog after the...

This stuff works good for collar insulation http://www.homedepot.com/p/Owens-Corning-FOAMULAR-150-1-in-x-4-ft-x-8-ft-R-5-Tongue-and-Groove-Insulation-Sheathing-68WD/100320355

I'll give that a try. Thanks:mug:

I've been searching but i have yet to find any info. i dont know if there are lines in the side or not. Know of any sites that might have the information i need?
