I just received a new Max 4 today from Morebeer. It appears the controller have changed but the instructions have not. anyone have any idea how to work these?

I am looking to get a BrewBuilt™ IceMaster Max 4 Glycol Chiller for use on my flex and flex plus using Spike temperature control coils. I am looking for feedback from any users of this? I am also deciding whether to get the quick disconnects. Also type and size of hoses required? Any feedback...

I am brewing a Zombie Dust clone for a friend. (I don't drink bitter beer). I brew Belgians exclusively, but I thought it would be fun to try something different. Anyway, Id like to enter it into our local contest, Brewer's Cup, assuming they hold it. I am also brewing from a kit for the second...

I kegged my first beer recently after years of bottling. I typically carb my Belgians to approximately 3.25. I’m curious what settings people are using to carbonate their Belgians in kegs? Also, do you serve at the same pressure? At 40°F my pressure would be at 20psi. Which seems high for...

I am looking for info on how others brew Trappists and their results @RPIScotty

Safbrew be-256 yeast is $6 pack and should contain approximately 110 billion cells. Brewing a 1.065 Belgian Blonde at a 1.0 pitch rate calls for 330 billion cells. That is 2 additional packs or $12. a 2 liter starter is 210 grams of dme. which is $2.99 at Morebeer. It is not just as cheap to buy...

I bought a set of knockout punches that say they are 1/2, 3/4, etc. the 1/2 is actually 7/8 the 3/4 is actually 1 1/8. I have read and watched videos on drilling holes in your kettle and no one mentions this. As I looked further into it, I’m finding that apparently they are for conduits and the...

Cheers everyone. I BIAB. My mashes are typically 8.2 to 9.3 gallons. I have been doing step mashes with boiling additions. I decided to try my old copperhead immersion chiller on as a herms coil. I have a 5 gallon and 10 gallon pot either of which I can use as an HLT to house the herms coil. I...

I just received 2 packs of WLP500 from MoreBeer. both were manufactured 12/19/18 I am brewing a Tripel O.G. 1078, 5.5 gallons. I prefer a 1.25 pitch rate as I'm doing a series of Tripels and pitch rate is a part of that. The calculators on viability go from 31% to .4% Ironically MoreBeer's...

I’m linking this thread cause it took me forever and several threads and theories to find it #maythe4thbewithyou ##happybigbrewday #witchdoctor https://www.homebrewtalk.com/forum/threads/a-short-pump-orientation-mounting-tutorial.306814/

I just bought my first brew pump and am wondering if I need to mount it to something? I can find plenty of info about mounting to a brew stand, however this pump will be sitting on the ground. I can’t really find anything about that. I certainly don’t want to turn on a brand new March pump...

Things that make me go hmmm. My last BIAB was a 4 step mash Saison, I raised temp by adding boiling water through a calculator. Clearly direct firing a mash tun will have the potential to scorch sugars. Wouldn’t boiling water or especially decoction basically shut down conversion for whatever...

I found this https://www.a2zozone.com/products/050-venturi-injector What do you think about using this for wort aeration? It is made from KYNAR I am a little insane about what touches my wort. Or if so,some has a link to a 304 or food grade silicone one that is similar

I have been extract brewing for a few years now. I am making the switch to all grain. I want all stainless. I plan on doing No Sparge Brewing. I brew Belgians nearly exclusively. My quad has an 18# grain bill. At a .125 absorption that puts my mash volume at 10.69 to get 5.5 in the fermenter...
