Thanks a lot for your help . Will get going to finish the cooler. :mug:

I have the parts for this but in 1/2". What size braid can be use with a 1/2" female barb fitting that goes inside. Can you force the barb fitting in the 1/2" x 20" hose or the diameter is too little? . Need some help please. Thanks. It just seems to me that the 3/8" barb fitting is used a lot...

Thank you guys for your help and opinions. About the manifold I have to be honest, I'm lazy and the batch sparge way seems simple enough for me however I might change my mind later and go with the manifold. Thank you

Man, I've seen one of this hoses at lowes and they look massive. Have you ever use a 1/2 inch braided hose before?. I just want to know if is not over kill to go with the 3/4 I have no experience what so ever with building a mash tun Lol. Anyway if is not big deal could you tell me the parts you...

Sorry to revive this old thread but some guy suggested in other thread to use a 3/4 ss braided hose from a water heater. I've seen one at Lowes and looks really thick; I don't have any experience with any braided hose since I'll try to build one of this coolers for batch sparging for the first...

Has anyone here has ferment a batch for 4 weeks or so and then re-use the same yeast for another batch. Re-use meaning as just pour the next brew on top of what is left in the carboy or should I wash the yeast instead?. I want to do first a batch of kolsch then I want to use the same yeast for...

Thank you. I have an English bitter fermenting for 9 days w/dry yeast. Its going to be bottled the 22nd then. :mug:

Hi Revvy, I have a question. Will the 4 weeks primary fermentation work with dry yeast as well? or just liquid yeast? Thanks.

What about lead from tap water? Is it good to use a filter capable of removing lead as well as Chlorine/Chloramine or it depends in the amounts of lead from the water report?. I live in Indianapolis and in the water report it says we get lead. Lead: 10 ppb Copper 0.09 ppm

Thanks a lot you've been great at sharing your recipes and answering all kind of questions. BTW I'll do your English Pub Ale too; it sounds very refreshing. :tank:

This recipe sounds great. I have some questions though 1- When you make the partial boil do you use half of the LME for the boil and half LME at knockout? 2- Will chloramine used by the water service be a problem? 3- Have someone here used Safale US-05 yeast for this beer? Thanks if someone...

So do you think keggles will use or need more gas to boil wort than a stock pot?. BTW the 82qt Bayou Classic pot don't have the bottom clad sandwich that other stockpots have.

I can tell you about the 82qt pot. It is thicker than the 62qt, has a decent hard wall; although no as hard as a blichmann or polar ware pot but seems to me sturdy enough, the bottom is imo not as thick as the wall sides, the handles are riveted, I think it weights about 22 pounds. Overall a...

I have a 82qt SS Bayou Blassic that I want to use in the future as a brew kettle. I see you use their pots for brewing. I have some questions if you don't mind. Did you weld the valves or are the valves weldless? How long have you been using the kettles and have you have any issues with...

Thank you guys, I'll try the partial boil then. Next time I'll drop the Crystal 80 and get either more Munich or some Vienna malt. Thanks a lot.

Ok, I want to brew the Oktoberfest from "How to Brew". I already bought the ingredients and after checking with Beer Recipator it comes out too dark (17 SRM). Here is my little dilemma. The recipe is a partial boil and I want to brew a full batch and the guys at the brew shop didn't have Pale...

Did you ever brew that recipe? and if you did how did it turn out?. thanks.
