"never more than five, never less than four"

Has anyone tried using this to recirculate dry hops in a keg with a filter on the diptube? Or used it to clean their tap lines?

https://www.brewhardware.com/product_p/mashrecirculation.htm I got this one. I believe it only has one hole at the end, and then if you wanna buy the sparge ring as an attachment you can. I think the whole point of these is they're very aimable and won't move, unlike the silicone hose...

Guess I should have kept up with this thread... I just happened to order a diptube from brewhardware as well. I had the norcal style one in my cart for a bit, but then just went with this: https://www.brewhardware.com/product_p/elbarb.htm and a male-male 1/2" nipple. Also sprung for the...

Yes, I just keep the probe plugged in. Sometimes it can be a bit cumbersome always moving the pump and controller together, but it's really not a big deal. I just got one of those 6x14" mesh ss baskets for boiling/whirlpool hops. It worked really well in keeping the gunk seperated, but the...

1) I had the same pump issues, and have since moved to a Chugger as well. No problems since. I use a regular three piece ball valve (just like on the unibrau) mounted right after a 90 deg angle on the output of my pump. I thought the same as you and that 90 deg angle is actually the temp...

I just tried some Whoa Equinox from Magnify Brewing and it would certainly qualify as a NEIPA. Equinox starts out sweet and fruity, but it's sort of dryer than Citra/etc. The fruitiness goes away a bit on the finish and it's replaced with this sort of green peppery/piney/almost spicy flavor...

One of my best batches of NEIPA had no boil hops whatsoever in it. Did it as sort of an experiment, and everyone at my homebrew club meeting loved it. Last two batches have been 0.25oz of Columbus.

Hey, finally got around to recording some of my brewday with the brau supply. I got some footage of the ever menacing 'foaming mash overflow' as well. Here ya go! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xjtZmKXZwbQ

Very cool! Congrats!

0.83 gal

btw, my boiloff rates ended up being somewhere around 1gal/hr with both elements 100%, and .5gal/hr with 1 element. It was sort of a chaotic brewday so those aren't super precise, but definitely in the ballpark.

I managed to clog (well, partially anyways) it with a whopping 1 oz total of boil hops. By the last gallon the stream into my fermentor was just a trickle, but A) I didn't want to reach in there to scrape it and B) it seemed to be doing a nice job filtering.. I had really nice clear wort! But...

Weird about the pics... they show up on my end. I'll throw em on imgur and relink them. >Quick q. When heating up to strike temp were you using both elements or just one? That was with both elements. >your efficiency calculation is merely an estimate. I did know the exact volume...

Got some brewing in today with the unibrau! Decided to make Centennial Blonde, because I heard they'll revoke your posting privileges if you don't brew it within your first year here... So here it is setup and on my table. I purchased the 11 Gallon kettle with two 1500 watt elements and Ranco...

Finally pulled the trigger on a dual 1500w 11G rig with the ranco controller! I ultimately decided that even though the extra features on the brau controller are cool, they weren't worth a $200 jump in price. Came to my house yesterday afternoon, and I literally spent ALL night reassembling...

Anyone know what happened to the Brau 15 Amp controller? They don't seem to be available on the site anymore. Kinda bummed since the Ranco is the only option now and I was interested in the timer features of the Brau controller.

For now, I use this filter housing with these carbon filters. The water comes from my shower head (apt brewing is always an adventure), through a food safe hose that hooks into the filter. Then it comes out via a vinyl tube. I want to get better filters for it ASAP, but am a little unsure on...

Luckily a power drill is one of the ~3 tools I do own. I've been doing the city slicker apartment living thing too long. I need a freakin' garage! Though I might just send Steven an email with a small army of custom order questions... luckily I played Christmas smart this year and am loaded...

Did you add the sight glass yourself or did Brau do it? I've read that a sight glass can serve dual functions as a volume reading and a manometer (probably in this thread.. lol). Problem is I don't have the tools to punch out SS.. hence why I'm buying this rig in the first place :fro:
