SORRY guys Doc has went back to Commerical work, has no time left in his day for custom work. Rough on a old man climbing and insulating in a hot mill-chemical plant. He stopped by and purchased my shop truck from me cause he didn't have time to work on his. This ain't rocket science, you...

Fermented in a 15 gallon blue barrel, airlock "epoxy welded in the 3/4 bung.. It made 11.96 gallons today, I just bottled it all, from 8:30 to 12:30.. Just got done cleaning up everything, washing it out. I added some extra DME this time, it smells really strong in alcohol. I didn't take a...

That wiring setup runs on a "plastic barrel heater" system, I am modifying barrels for different shapes. I was burning, scorching the barrels before I changed to this proportional control. Using this system I can build a conical fermenter for "cheap" from a barrel.. but by the time you pay my...

3/1/2014 Just ordered the ingredients to make this again. Including shipping it has went up to $70 for 12 gallons.. I think, quick in my head that works out to 22 cents a ounce. It was 0.08... inflation sucks. Reduced the final hops add to 1 oz.. using a (maybe I've made two...

Several problems this morning, my bag leaked some grain, stopped up my drain. Had to siphon wort out of pot. ROD out drain, it was less than a teaspoon giving me grief and most that was still in the pot. THE king-hose nipple had perhaps two or three grains in it. (sideways). Laughing boil...

HOW do you suggest to modify the mash temps-time? (photo) The previous mix.. very tasty. I just ran the 13lbs of grain through the mill. ready for a 6am brew. It was suggested locally 60 min at lower temp, 30 at upper.. then iodine check. They too called it a simple brew. (it sure was...

Find anyone with a cnc (even a hobby tabletop model) in your area, the labels are made from "tri-laminate" poly stock, you engrave the color on top showing the color in the middle of the laminate. Trophy shops normally have it too to make desk-door signs. If you can't find local, I have a...

I live in a neighborhood that has mostly went to rental properties.. People move in, tie their pitt bulldogs up with rope. Never feed them. There is one brown one that comes to my fence and whines.. I think he can read the hobo sign, whereever it is.. that We are a easy touch.. Some laws...

(about that ramp up) well.. I bought a variable solid state relay off "ebay" to "slow the speed" of the oven element I am using on my "one pot cooker". I am still trying to make it all happy and come out like the first all grain success. I have reached "drinkable" beer, but not...

Thank you for your suggestions, I have been trying to simulate a "previous" heat element and controller. So far.. I have not reached the "smoothness" of a slower ramp up of that other one. (about the same percentages ingredients) DO you recommend a lower secondary mash temp? OR continuing...

Sorry Friend, I was asleep at the switch. Used to be when I'd hire a electrician I've give him various selector switches.. using the same contacts, different cam profiles create different outputs. You'd be surprised to "see" how many electricians are really "number to number" wire connectors...

Swirl the glass my friend.. Foam, how pretty.. Airlocks only move gas one way.. I guess I am not one.

I did this drawing thinking you were going to continue to use the "smoker" control. PLUG the transformer directly into the "heater" output plug on that. It will turn on the transformer and Gas valve just like it did the heater.. OK?? That is a different drawing for the PID, it has dry...
