I bought a pid kit off amazon, and it came with a k type thermocouple with a threaded end. My hope was to be able to find a probe that could screw onto that end, but I can't find anything. Over at thermoworks, they sell lots of k type "penetration" probes (http://tinyurl.com/y95rxhz3), but all...

I ordered the white house porter last october, and then accidentally sat on the kit for a whopping 8 months. Now I am getting back into the brew swing of things, and am wondering if I should brew it. Here are some facts: 1. I ordered it from More Beer, so Im guessing the malt that I got was...

My wife loves the trader joes apple cider that comes out in the fall, and I am interested in making a hard cider version for her. The constraints that I come up against are the following: 1. I'd like something that could be kegged within a month 2. I'd like something that has some sweetness, ie...

I got a new better bottle from bells, and during my first cleaning, it seemed as if there were some scratches at the top of the bottle's punt, on the inside. I've never used a bottle cleaner on it before, only a carboy washer, which doesnt reach that far. My questions are: 1. Is there some...

I completed my carboy washer last night, and was gave it a whirl. I think in my head I was expecting more pressure than I got —*so I wanted people's feedback who have build their own. Here is mine in action: http://d.pr/v/wjUd I realize that some people get pumps that do 1200gph, while...

I am currently in the middle of building my carboy washer, and last night I cemented the pvc parts together. I may have used too much cement, and when I pushed the slip fit part against the t, I ended up with some visible cement being pressed out from between the two pieces. Is this stuff...

I bought and assembled a 50ft immersion chiller this past week, and just used it. After searching for some tips on cleaning the chiller after use, I found a lot of people talking about how they cleaned it before they used it. I realize this is a RDWHAHB moment, but now I am uncertain how...

I bought an immersion cooler and want to make sure that I don't get any leaks when I use it tomorrow. I am assembling the vinyl lines and securing them, but I am never sure how tight to screw the worm clamps in. When should I stop? Also, I've read a few peoples comments that I really need...

Just yesterday I opened up my new SQ14 Bayou Classic burner. It didn't come with instructions, so I found a general purpose manual online. The directions had me to tighten the brass fitting with a wrench, so I tightened as much as I could with my hands, and finished with the wrench. I tightened...

I am going to try and transfer some beer from a sanke to corny. Reading a lot of the other threads, I have a pretty good idea what I am going to do. My questions are just these: 1) Can I get a cheaper sanke tap, say something not stainless steel, maybe nickel plated if I am only going to...

I am going to secure the lid of my keezer tonight to my 2x6's and I was wondering if I need weather-stripping on the top? The lid has a nice rubber seal around that seems to fit nice and flat on the top of the 2x6's, and I dont know if I can add the weather stripping later since that will add...

I have one more chance to brew on Saturday! I am going to try and ferment with nottingham, since I know my fermentation closet is at 63 right now stable (I dont have a way to warm it). I've already made Ed Worts Haus Pale Ale, so I was considering this recipe called the Innkeepers Friend My...

I am an extract brewer, and I've never put together my own recipe. I've always just done a kit. This fall I harvested some of my own hops that were growing in the backyard. I do not know what type they are. From what I've found, I can use the hops for finishing or dry hopping, but should...

I have a new kegerator on a Johnson thermostat that I recently put in. It's my first kegerator. However, the nearest outlet is already being used by a washing machine and a tankless water heater. Would it be safe to get a grounded splitter for the kegerator and the washing machine to share...

I am leaving for a weekend trip, and I realized that I will have enough time to keg my beer, but I am guessing that I won't be able to clean out the carboy as thoroughly as I want, same goes for my air lock etc. Would be be possible to just fill the carboy back up with water, and maybe a...

Did my first brewing for the first time in 3 years. Got all the old the old supplies out and had a **perfect** brew session. Nothing went wrong, no spillovers, no nada. Finally got the carboy settled in the hallway closet when I decide to bust out the old Son of Fermentation Chiller in the...

I am currently brewing Kombucha in between beer brews (I heard it easy and the timeline seems great too). The scoby seems to create a fair amount of little organic matter that seem pretty gross. In a week or so I will be taking the Kombucha out for bottling, and I wondered whether or not I...
