Could someone with an Omron E5CC, or similar, post their boil kettle settings please? I may or may not have goobered something in the settings, element was firing, then stopped. Context: system is 3v eHERMS, 50A 240v GFCI circuit, B2B 50A GroundedBrewing control panel, elements are 5500w ripple...

Hey guys, I have a Grainfather Connect, just sitting in the box unused. Box is opened, I inspected for damage and account for all parts, but has not been used. Its in the original white shipping box with all appropriate packing. No pictures, its in a box so, I'm sure you know what the thing...

I ordered a custom 50A panel from from Grounded Brewing Technologies (@groundedbrewtech ). Rex sent over a couple pictures of the progress. I think it's looking fantastic! Component arrangement, and etching is all custom. He was able to use my logo and font.

Hey guys, I got a couple bottles filled today, they are both a couple pounds over. The taprite on the 20# doesn't seem to care at all. But the cheap single gauge... Whatever this is (looks like a Kegco-ish) ... Is freaking out when I open the valve. Needle bouncing all over the place, relief...

Heard about GBT from a BIAB thread on here, and a Short Circuited Brewers video. But I haven't seen anything from people using his regular 30A/50A panels. Does anyone have any experience with them, that they'd like to share?

I converted this MagicChef fridge into a kegerator. I used to keep a 5# tank inside, but I picked up a 20 pounder and want it outside. Here is a diagram I found glued to the back of the fridge. Can anyone tell from this if there are any gas lines or wires running through the right side...

I made a batch of bugeater's oatmeal raisin cookie amber that tastes like briney green olives. If anybody actually wants it, you can come pick it up for free. $60 bucket of fail... So F'n mad right now.

Hey guys, I've got an American Amber that looked fine when I transferred it to the keg, but for some reason it got VERY cloudy and has yet to settle out. I thought maybe it was chill haze, but it is my understanding that chill haze would disappear when the beer warms up, so I left a glass out...

After many questions and mulling things over in my head, I finally picked up a roll of aluminum flashing from Home Depot (they sold a thicker gauge than Lowe's). It's about 95% complete. The burner skirt goes almost all the way around, with just a gap for the burner inlet (what ever it's...

What types of metal sheets are safe to use on and around a propane burner? What I want to do will get hot but not be in direct flame but I have to be able to work it by hand, get it at Lowes, and not give off toxic fumes when heated.<br />Will regular galvanized air duct metal work for this?<br/>

My last couple batches that I've tried to make red have failed. I made the American Amber Ale from How to Brew, and my attempts to make it a little more red just made it a tad more brown. Then I tried to alter the BeerSmith Dry Stout to make it less dark and more red, like a Guinness Red Harvest...

Thought we could make a list of ingredients that do not ferment well in kombucha. This would be especially useful for new brewers so they don't have to waste a whole batch to find out. Coconut sugar - this is a sweetener made from the coconut palm flower nectar. While it does seem to ferment...

Currently 18°C here in beautiful Louisville, KY. I got out the Busa for a little while, get the fluids mixed up. Boiling some water on my new Spike kettle and getting the paint off my new burner. And having a red Guinness and an ACID C-Note too ;) posted via Home Brew mobile app

I picked up a bottle of Golden Promise from Caledonian brewery today. Untappd tells me this brew is no longer made. The only number I can find on the label says: Would that indicate this was bottled in 2006?? posted via Home Brew mobile app

I've been working on some labels for my kegs and bottles. I'm going to get grogtags so I can write on them. I did graphic design in high school and some college, I'd say I'm decent at fixing images, but I have not a single creative/artsy bone in my entire body. I could use some constructive...

I picked up an older 5-gal Igloo beverage cooler from my parents' house, that was just sitting in their basement taking up space. My plans are to convert it to a HLT for fly sparging. Do I need to use the more expensive stainless parts, or are brass/plastic parts from Lowe's/HomeDepot...

Just today I received my Spike Brewing 10gal kettle. I got the one with the horizontal ports, pretty awesome! I filled the whole thing up to make sure nothing leaked including the handles. Then I drained it through the valve with the false bottom attached so I could quantify the tun dead space...

I have figured out a way to get BeerSmith2 to play nice with an install on another computer. I had been searching around for a way to do this, and I couldn't find one, so I'm assuming it hasn't already been written about. Prerequisites: BeerSmith2 (I'm currently using the trial version, I...

So I got a kit from kegconnection with the taprite regulator. Just got the 5# tank filled today and I'm making sure all the parts work before I have a keg full of beer I can't pressurize. Is the needle supposed to fly almost all the way around? Sticker says Model 740 COMPRESSED GAS CARBON...
