g'day brewers! I am using converted 50L kegs as my brewing kettles and hot tun, like so many of us do. I recently switched to a Bayou Classic Square Patio Stove. I really like the stability it offers, compared to using my keg/kettle on my Bass Pro Turkey fryer. However, since making this switch...

Found those wheels at Lowe's, made the cuts tonight. Drilling and assembling the plumbing tomorrow... Thanks for the inspiration!

Nice job, what type of grinding wheels did you use? I'm just about to create a new keggle and the wheel I have seems a bit thick (1/4")?

I may be panicking for no reason! I'm just used to seeing much more and continuous activity from S04 than this. This is the 3rd trying this recipe - so it's probably me being hypercritical of this batch and not trusting the results... I'll report back later. ~Sgt

1.044, which was lighter than anticipated (1.051). I do not remember the 1st batch... This one was 1.048...

Sorry - I wrote this while in a meeting - so while I gave a decent amount of detail - I was moderately distracted and I wasn't really to the point. ISSUE - There is a total lack of activity with this batch as there was with the other 2. And typically when using S-04 - there's activity for...

Alright brewers? Hope all is well! I have a weird one. I have brewed about 20-30 batches over the last 2 years - maybe that's a lot, maybe it's rookie status for some. But for some reason I seem to keep having a very odd situation happen whenever I've attempt to brew a Scottish 80/-. The...

Sorry for your loss, pal. Tippy - Dippy thread - https://www.homebrewtalk.com/showthread.php?t=207473

Interested in the burner... If you still have it, I can come down after New Year's???

I see a "SOLD" on the top part - is it all gone? I plan on being in Cocoa after Christmas...I might be able to swing by for a Carboy & flask!

Thanks for the input! I did a cross reference between sucralose vs Stevia (because that's what I already have for my ginger ales) and this article says the following. Stevia is 100 times sweeter than table sugar and sucralose is 600 times sweeter than table sugar - so it would mathematically...

Good morning brewers - I posted this on the Recipe thread - but didn't seem to get any traction... so... I have a relatively simple question, I believe. I brewed a base ale (Nov 12th), matching the characteristics of Northern Brewer's Bastard Stepson - using my superb math skills, I devised a...

Good morning brewers - I have a relatively simple question, I believe. I brewed a base ale (Nov 12th), matching the characteristics of Northern Brewer's Bastard Stepson - using my superb math skills, I devised a 4 gallon batch to use this extract - I'm almost ready to bottle, however the...

Well this has been an interesting read... seems the tangent has gotten away from the OP's question despite numerous attempts to have everyone grab their respective soapboxes and move to another thread. Only thing that came out of this for me; buy where you want; boycott what you want, brew and...

https://byo.com/bock/item/616-extract-to-all-grain-and-back Just another addition to this old post - while the math remains for pale DME/LME to pale AG, here's a basic formula for Ambers, & Dark... Almost all extracts start with a healthy dose of base malt, usually a two-row pilsner-type malt...

I use txbrewing.com as well as my LHBS.

This is what I was thinking... a lot of information given about the pitching temps but nothing about what type of match this was. I had a similar experience with a Scotch Ale. I was hitting all my numbers but my mash temp was too high. So even though I was getting a SG 1.042 on my mash...

I was told to get the best results from BIAB - crush it twice.

Just an update... that batch is percolating away - yeasties are happy, flying about the carboy... decent krausen (for S-05). I can smell the Mosaic hops coming up and through the airlock... smells lovely! Later this week I'll dry hop another ounce of Mosaic.

@RM-MN - thanks pal.
