Does anyone know where I can find this Sparge Arm? I saw it as an image on Pintrest, but there was no link to a site. I think it may be just what I need to fit a keggle, as the bracket is wider than MoreBeer's Ultimate Sparge Arm. I think it may also be cheaper (the person that posted it on...

I planted 5 rhizomes of Cascade. Only 2 took and then one of those died. The remaining plant is going strong :) and put up two good bines, but one has heart(ish) looking leaves and the other has leaves with 3 distinct lobes. Sorry, no pics. Is it normal to have multiple leaf shapes on the same...

Anyone know a good clone recipe for Bison's Kermit the Hops? I'd like to brew it for a friend who enjoys it.

I have a dilemma. A braided hose going to one of my cup burners seems to have gotten blocked...don't ask me how as I have no idea. I need to find somewhere that sells braided propane hoses WITHOUT a regulator. I can find rubber hoses without regulators (I don't really need an 8 foot plus hose)...

Yeast has a range in which it performs. Too hot and it dies off. Too cold and it goes to sleep. I understand about trying to stay away from the high limit, unless you're going for some special taste or aroma. Would there be a reason to try to keep the temp at the lower limit? It would...

I've recently obtained a Whirlpool Conquest side-by-side refrigerator/freezer, which I'm hoping to turn into a fermentation chamber. I've taken some pictures of the control panel and the wiring schematic and am hoping that one of you electronically savvy folks can help me wire two STC 1000...

I'm in the process of creating a thread and want to attach some pics from my computer so folks can help me figure something out. My problem is I can't seem to upload the files. They are .jpg files, but I keep getting "The website cannot display the page" error, with "Most likely causes: The...

I've been brewing beer for about three years now and decided to take a stab at cider. I don't have access to fresh pressed cider...Florida's not a big apple state...so I shopped around for the best prices for apple juice. I finally made my decision, but also saw a good deal, in my opinion, for...

I'm going to be adding a whirlpool setup to my 15.5 gal boil keggle. For those of you that have whirlpools set up in your BKs, where do you position the outflow? I'm trying to figure out the best position for the most effective whirlpool. Is starting the whirlpool at the bottom of the keggle...

I've finally put together my single-tier, three keggle system. I have two pumps and a counter flow chiller. I'm hoping to brew my first all grain this weekend. As the title asks, how do those of you who have similar setups clean your systems after brewing? I was thinking along the lines of hot...

I'm about to do my first all grain brew using an American IPA recipe I came up with. I am plugging it all into iBrewmaster 2 and am at the point where I add the mash/EQ profile. I plan on fly sparging. My problem is that none of the profiles in iBrewmaster 2 say "fly sparge". From what I've...

This is my first attempt at putting together a recipe and I welcome your feedback. I'm shooting for an American IPA. My goals were 6.5-7.0 ABV and ~70 IBUs. This is with a 7 gal boil and 5.25 gal batch. Ingredients are: GRAINS 11 lbs Pale Malt (2 row) US 1.2 lbs Crystal Malt 20L HOPS 1 oz...

For those of you who have created your own recipes, how do you determine when to add your hops? I know that bittering hops go in for the entire boil, for the most part (the longer they are in, the more bitterness they impart). But for aroma and flavor hops, how do you come up with 'put this one...

Does anyone know where I would be able to find a chart that compares malts by brand name? I haven't been in the game long enough to know which grains are comparable to which. Thanks.

I've been putting together a single tier propane keggle setup. I plan to do fly sparging. Those of you who use keggles, if you fly sparge, what are you using? Pictures would be appreciated. Thanks.

Have any of you with plate chillers immersed them in ice water? If so, was it helpful in bringing the wort temp down quicker?

I have a IIPA in primary at the moment. The recipe called for one week in primary and then transfer to secondary. The conundrum I have is that at one week it was still bubbling away and had a good thick krausen. I decided to wait another week to let the krausen fall. A week later and, while it...

I am looking to make a peanut butter based beer and am wondering if any of you have used PB Fit (from BJ's) rather than PB2?

I just got my hands on a third keg to turn into a keggle for my brewstand setup. I now have two 15.5 gallon ones and one 50 liter (13.2 gal)...a Guinness keg. My question, for those of you who have been brewing batches in excess of 5 gallons, is which size keggle I should use for which function...

I'm in the process of putting together a brew stand, based on the 'Weldless Wallace' build. I still need three burners for it and don't quite know which way to go. I need the burners only, not burners with accompanying stands. What do you folks who have brew stands with built in burners use...
