So I finally was able to convince swmbo that I needed a bigger kegerator :biggrin: So two very grumpy lowes employees dropped off my freezer yesterday and I went right to work getting a fermtroller working for it. So here on the left you see a standard outdoor outlet box with one of our...

So since I take both my kettle and my MLT off of my stand for cleaning I wanted to make disconnecting everything as easy as possible. One of my main concerns was with the pressure sensors that go to the BrewTroller on each vessel. I didn't want to mount the pressure sensors to the vessel itself...

Well it was time to take the BT for another spin as I needed to get my pumpkin ale ready for this holiday season. Overall, the system preformed perfectly. I only had a couple display glitches but never any loss of control or reboots. The new smart herms with the HLT tracking is the ticket...

So since my pipeline has been dry of beer for a few weeks now I decided to get off my butt and brew a batch. It was a good time to test all the new BT features and my new solenoid valve setup. The worst thing was that about halfway through the mash I dropped and broke my only hydrometer and my...

So if as if I didn't have enough stuff to work on I decided to start work on a hop dropper system since now the BrewTroller has a profile for it. My plan is to have a disc with 8 vertical tubes on it that will use a high tourqe servo to rotate and drop the hops. I plan on using a 8 pin...

So as if I didn't have enough projects around the house :) In the spare few minutes I have here and there i've been working on converting an old side by side fridge into a fermentation chamber. My plan is to keep the sides separated so that I can run two different temperatures. I am going...

So i've been wanting to tie up my control panel so that I can maybe sneak a batch in this weekend. I ended up ditching the other control panel I was going to use because of lack of space so I went to lowes and picked up this 12x12 box from the electrical section. This is a shot from my layout...

Woohoo, just picked up 2 full 20LB CO2 tanks for $60! I'll probably have CO2 for the next few years :) The guy had one of the big tall tanks too he wanted to sell that was full as well but I didn't have the room.

Well I had some time last night and I was able to finish up my stir motor mount for my HLT. I figured while I was at it I myaswell make it into a lid for the HLT at the same time. I coated the wood with butcher block oil, i'm not sure how it's going to work or if it's going to put oil in my...

So this weekend I was able to finally brew a batch of beer on the new system. So not only was this my first all-grain but it was also the first brew session with the BrewTroller. It did a great job and ran perfectly the whole time. I figured I would do something easy so I brewed a Centennial...

So over the last couple months i've been slowly collecting parts and planning and building my HERMS system. I've been trying to do everything stainless and silicone wherever possible. Of course that increases the time because i've been trying to do it on a budget. I'm hoping that this systems...

Anyone here raise rabbits? I just acquired a buck and two does. Going to raise a litter every other month or so for some extra food. With everyone losing jobs and every penny matters will be kind of nice to have some independence. I had wanted to raise chickens but it's illegal in our...

Well now I finished cutting the tops out of my kegs i'm about ready to start getting the fittings installed for sight glasses and ball valves. I decided that i'm going to go with brazing since I don't have a welder and everyone i've called down here doesn't seem to want to attack it. Also...

Ok so I've been reading all morning and I think my head is going to explode. But anyways, onto my question. Since i'm a big into micro controllers and automation I really want to setup my system to be partially automated. I am pretty much decided on going with a external heat exchanger with a...

Mmm does anyone here like Springerle or Lebkuchen cookies or have any good recipes? My mom used to make them every year when I was growing up and I wanted to try to make them myself.

Today is a good day, just finished unpacking and getting the keezer up and running. Love controller is coming in today so I will be wiring that up and then it's off to HD for some wood for the collar. Freezer is a 5.0CF from Lowes only came in at $188 which for a freezer that can hold 3 kegs...

I've been putting alot of thought into starting to go all grain. Right now I only have a 8 gallon brew pot and I since I purchased it fairly recently I know the wife would have my head if I got rid of it so soon. My plan is to convert a keg into a mash tun since kegs can be purchased fairly...
