I have a 10-gallon 3-vessel HERMS setup using one heating element in the HLT and one in the boil kettle. The elements are 5500w tri-clamp style with integrated L6-30 plugs like the one below: I power them using a single-channel PID controller built with an Auber SYL-2362, 50-amp ssr, and...

Got busy and put together some washable, removable insulation for the HLT and MLT of my 3 vessel eHERMS. MLT is 100% done, and has edging on the cut edges now. HLT is 90% done, but the hard part is over, just needs grommets and edging. Each one is 50" x 18" with cutouts for the fittings and...

I've got a crazy idea to try to brew a 2-2.5% beer with flavor and hashed together a plan for a light Belgian-style rye beer. I figure this is a good way to pack a lot of flavor and complexity in such a light beer, while retaining a very refreshing quality. Rye should give it a bit of body and...

I've got a local competition coming up in November this year that covers Belgian Tripel (26c), Belgian Dubbel (26B), and Trappist Single (26A). My original thought was to brew a dedicated Trappist Single with the following recipe: Boil Size: 7.50 gal Estimated OG: 1.054 SG Estimated Color: 4.4...

I'm a few months out of a local competition entry for IPA's and DIPA's and was hoping for some feedback. I've got a significant quantity of the hops in the recipe, so I'm focusing on those. Belma was a bust on a previous brew, so I figure using it for a bittering addition is best. The others...

During my last brew day, my RIMS tube kicked the bucket and kept tripping the GFCI, so I had to make the decision: rebuild the RIMS tube or get around to building out the extra keg. I decided to go for broke and build out an eHERMS MLT. After about $400 is fittings, tubing, and heating...

Back-story: I've been running a RIMS mash tun for some time now. The RIMS tube is built from a 5500/1375w hot tub heater, Auber PID, and a 40amp SSR. It has been powered by 120v until now with great results. My pump is a Chugger. My boil and HLT has always been gas. Current situation: I...

I'm looking to brew an American Rye for category 6D. Looking at the BJCP guidelines, they say that 50% or more of the grain bill can come from wheat, then goes to say that for a rye beer some or all of the wheat can be substituted... So my question is: how much rye for a simple American Rye...

My thesis adviser requested a very malty beer for the lab fridge. I wanted to make something that could be ready in a month or so, so stouts and other roasted malt stuff were out. I also have the hops just laying around. So: Recipe: Malt Shock Amber Ale Brewer: Dempsey Smith Style...

Background: I name my ciders for their alcohol content, 8% cider, thus Number Eight. Also, I don't have a color printer available anymore, so I made it for black and white. Enjoy!

So, senior design for me in ME here at purdue rolled around this semester, and I managed to get a group together to build an "electric cold box." Some of you may be familiar with the cold plates sold so you can just take a coooler, put the plate and some taps on it, fill it with ice, and...

I've been tasked with producing a wedding present for my brother and his wonderful fiance (I mean really, she's damn cool). So the idea is to provide 15 gallons of homebrew for the wedding in august. 3 batches, 3 kegs. I'm pretty set on the styles I want to make... but need recommendations...

Nearly everyone has made cider here on the forums because it's soo damn easy! Lots of others have made labels for said cider, including one very clever apple in Oktoberfest getup. Here is my new label for my cider that I will be entering as a still apple wine in this years wine competition...

Hey all, I just recently updated my mash tun to a manifold instead of a stainless braid. Setup went EXTREMELY well and works like a charm with no leaks. Materials: 40qt igloo ice cube cooler (the one without wheels... dont think it can be bought anymore) 1/2" brass ball valve (can be...
