    GE 7.0 Keezer WITHOUT Temperature Controller?

    An external controller will give you tighter control and digital adjustment. The internal controller is fairly sloppy, and you still need some sort of thermometer to know what the temp is. Even with that, it's easy to overshoot/undershoot your target temps. And if you ever stop using it for a...

    BIAB With Blichmann TOP?

    I'll have to look up the info on the flow meter, but will post it up. It's useful to monitor flow so you don't overflow the grain bed and kettle, and let's you know if the flow is blocked. No alarm yet, but will probably buy the sensor when I buy the ToP controller.

    BIAB With Blichmann TOP?

    I built my recirc system modeled after the tower, mounted on the end of my brewing storage cart.

    BIAB With Blichmann TOP?

    Yeah, I'd forgotten about that. I expect it will be pretty pricey, and probably require 240v. I guess I'll sit tight for now and wait for pricing on the RIMS Rocket and new controller.

    Anyone running the Tower of Power?

    dcbc, Are you using your ToP in a BIAB RIMS system? Have you used the software for step mashing?

    BIAB With Blichmann TOP?

    Hate to bump my own thread, but looks like I'm going to pick up the ToP for my BIAB setup. I had priced doing a nice electric RIMS tube setup, but it was only about $75 less and I'd still have to put everything together. And I'd still need the burner for the boil, so it seemed a little...

    Anyone running the Tower of Power?

    Wanted to stir the pot on this a little, so to speak. Looking at buying the ToP control head to use with my RIMS plumbing and Blichmann burner for doing BIAB. I had priced out building an electric RIMS tube system, to do it right put me within $75 of the Blichmann ToP and I'd still have to build...

    What came in the mail for you today?

    A 15 gallon BIAB bag for my Boilermaker from Wilserbrewer, along with a matching hop spider bag and a hop sock for kegging. Top notch construction, can't wait to use it.

    Keep SWMBO Happy and Brew Beer at the Same Time

    @trbig From what I've read, brewing yeast doesn't work well for bread making. Different yeasts are bred for different purposes.

    Brewers Best Pumpkin Spice Porter

    Sorry for the late reply. I made this kit last year, and used 1/3 of the spice pack. It came out nice, about a month in the keg brought the flavors together and smoothed things out.
