Small stock tank, little 12v wort pump, immersion chiller and a fire. Working better than I hoped for. Cheers.

This isn’t brewing related, but I thought maybe I’d do some collective brainstorming or that somebody would have a great easy solution. My basic end goal is this. Have a gas powered water pump that will turn on using a timer. I have found a small pump that has an electric start Pacer...

Finally got one of those great Craigslist finds I hear about. Hopefully it was a good deal anyways.... picked up 8 ball lock kegs and a 20# co2 tank for $150. The kegs all need a thorough going through and looks like some need new O-Rings but otherwise pretty solid. I told my wife “I can’t...

I don't normally ask for advice on recipes as I usually research a while and or use a standby. However I haven't brewed in about a year and my wife bought me some ingredients for my birthday. Here is what she randomly got me, -40lb Viking pale 2row -2lb Munich -3lb carapils -1lb 50l crystal...

Got a mule deer this last week and I usually like to hang the meat a couple days, but the weather isn’t ideal right now. Rigged up a quick meat cooler and good to go until butcher time. Looking forward to making some more breakfast and Italian sausage.

My wife and I are expecting our second son in August. With our first son it was super easy picking a name and we were both 100% confident in it. Now we can’t for the life of us decide on our second sons name. We have names we really like but don’t have that same confidence in just one particular...

Just bought a house and am excited to start planning and redoing the outdoor patio area. The current area is falling down and way too short. Plan on rebuilding with my keezer on the inside of the shed with 4 or 5 taps inside, and an additional 3 taps run through the wall to access from the...

Built a really quick and easy keezer for my wedding, plan is to make it a little fancier eventually but for now it stays in the garage so not to worried as it serves its purpose. started with a craigslist find about 15 cf maytag freezer that fits 9 cornies without collar. Built a really...

I did a couple searches but didn't find anything specific regarding this. My fiancé is doing a project with her nutrition students where they are all bringing in healthy snacks for a class. She saw a video of a guy making fizzy fruit using dry ice and a cooler covered in saran wrap, and wanted...

Anybody know anything about protivin centennial beer? My friend has one in his closet that he found in Iowa when he was little. Looks like it was made in 1978 by Walters brewery. I thought it was a pretty cool old beer can, not sure how rare it is as I've never been to that area.

Just excited to finally get my mash tun finished and thought I would share. I used a 62qt coleman xtreme cooler, I was going to use the 52qt but it was $5 more expensive, go figure. I used info from these forums as my guidelines. Here are some pictures. All the pieces lined out...

This is my first post but I have been reading the threads for a while and getting great information. I wanted to share these ceramic bottles I made and bottled a portion of my first batch of beer in them. Hopefully they work out and have a good enough seal to hold carbonation. Any thoughts or...
