Yes. It looks smaller than it is in the picture and those retaining bars are adjustable.

I preheat my cooler mashtun by going 8-10 degrees past my strike temp. If after 15 minutes I am too high I simply open and stir. It does not take long to get it to drop the few degrees I may be off. Simple and efficient for me.

Thanks! Just built this using the same Home Depot parts and the Type A Liquid ball lock post from Norther Brewer. I removed the original white "washer" from the plastic tip of the sprayer and flipped it around in the flare like was suggested and I have a functional trigger. Also using enough...

Buy commercial beer. They are far better at conservation than you can ever be.

You'll be fine. I did the same. I did put the pumpkin in the microwave to bring the temp up to 150 degrees before the mash so I didn't have to worry about dropping my temp with cold pumpkin.

Yea, the shortage last year has left the shelves empty since last Thanksgiving. I have been waiting for weeks to find some and was about to go the pie pumpkin route as the local farmers have them in when low and behold, I found two cans sitting on the shelf at the local supermarket yesterday...

I hope the walk-in customers won't have problems. I was just planning a trip down to the Chicago area. Never bought from them before but have plenty of others I know who have.

Perfect for those "red cup" events when I hate drinking out of plastic!

Thanks, I'll give them a try without.

The calculations I've seen for evaporation are: FinalGravity = (InitGravity - 1) * 1000 * InitialVolume / FinalVolume / 1000 + 1 So in your case (1.040 - 1) * 1000 * 8 / 5 / 1000 + 1 Which is 1.064.

Do I need to use a nylon washer on a threaded ball lock disconnect? It seems the disconnect has a plastic end that the nylon washer does not fit on as nicely as the metal threaded fittings of say the gas distributor.

Hey if the wife or gf partakes in the rewards of the hobby they can deal with the mess or clutter.

+1 I thought maybe I just got lucky once with them, the next 6-pack was just as easy.

Cleaning out a basement room long in need of cleaning last month I came upon two cases of dusty bottles some of which still had caps on and low and behold, held what appears to be beer. About a 12-pack of two different beers. Judging from the caps on them I think they are from around 1993 or...

Hi all - My name is Victor from the Milwaukee, WI area and I started brewing over 15 years ago but I haven't brewed a batch in almost 4 years (and that was actually a hard cider). It's time to dust off the equipment and get back to it! I was Googling for a recipe and came across this site...
