Hey, Raouliii, great CFC design. I have a homemade CFC and want to retrofit it with quick disconnects. How did you attach those tri-clamps? I'd love a parts list if you have it. I especially like the temp probe idea. Maybe I'll incorporate something similar in my upgrade, when and if I...

The brew rig's awesomeness goes without saying. For me the cooler is the icing on the cake.

Wow! Is that a beer walk-in cooler?! I'm torn between admiration, and deep jealousy! Beautiful work, really!

I like the hop scale a lot! That'd be good when sharing with uninitiated folks. Overall, nicely done!

Nagorg, love the pic on this one! Reminds me of World of Warcraft. World of Beercraft?

Impressive label, and the tap handle rocks! Using the gear actually makes it look like a huge bottle cap on top, which I'm guessing was intentional!

Using Grogtag! Their stuff is a lot of fun and the labels themselves totally rock because they're easy on, easy off with no residue, and they're waterproof!

Yeah, still haven't made this one. The more I think about it, the nostalgia might not be worth getting stuck with funky beer. Cool idea, though.

I was recently thumbing through an old cookbook my father gave me before I went to college entitled The Impoverished Student's Guide to Cookery, Drinkery, and Housekeepery by Jay Rosenberg (Published in 1965, Doubleday). In the back section is a curious entry about making homebrew. I have...

zdbrown1, I really hate to be that guy but on your Pale to the Chief label, "American" is spelled wrong, unless you meant to spell it that way.

Freaking awesome!

I have seen one negative review about the volume markers being on the inside of the pot. The markings don't seem laser etched so the potential is there for them to fade over time, and with use. For me, the markings were just one reason why I bought this particular pot. That said, the markings...

Thanks, Riot. I took a reading today and the SG is 1.016. That makes my current ABV 4.2% For a dry stout that's not bad considering. I will take another reading in a few days and see where we stand. I took a sip of the sample just for giggles and it's got a good flavor even without...

OK, noob time. I recently posted pics of my efforts to make a dry stout: [URL="https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f37/dry-stout-brew-day-my-new-megapot-1-2-some-experiments-aeration-437505/"/URL] After the foam calmed down from agitation, and the lag phase passed, I have had little to no krausen on...

Hi all! I had to share some photos of this past Monday's Brew Day with my new NB Megapot 1.2. I also tried some ideas I've been wanted to experiment with to aerate the wort. 1. The kettle with my ingredients for Ceilidh Irish Stout. 2. The set-up for sending the wort through my homemade CFC...

Fantastic and inspiring build! This makes me wish we actually had a yard to build something like this! It looks functional and well designed. Thanks for sharing. So...what time should I stop by? I'll bring the ingredients and the beer.

This is the label for my upcoming Summer Ale. It's in the secondary now, awaiting bottling next Sunday or Monday. Created with Avery LabelPro software.

I found mine at a local plumbing supply store that does mostly contractor business.

I got mine at a local plumber's supply store. They sell to professional plumbers. What was cool was when I asked for 30 ft of soft copper tube, the guy asked if I was making moonshine. I laughed and said, "No, homebrew." He said if I brought in some beer to share he'd give me the contractors...

Thanks Landolincoln, I'll try that in my next test. The options you suggested also sound good. I didn't anticipate that once I had all the hoses and tubing attached the thing would become so unwieldy just to lift and drain. Until I upgrade to a pump, gravity is my friend. Those quick...
