My hobby interests have shifted to woodworking, so it's time to downsize my brewing gear. For sale is my custom painted steel, dual burner brew stand. The design is based upon the well-known Brutus 10. The burners each have their own control valves (not quite needle-valve-like control...

**Edit** - Pulled. Gonna stick with this MLT for a while longer.

I'll soon be converting a minifridge to a kegerator with a tap tower. I'm currently running a temporary dual-cobra-tap setup. With my current setup, it's fairly easy to switch to a different line length to balance the system for something like a bitter. However to my mind, this is much more...

I've spent about 30 minutes searching for various key words, but to no avail, so I figured I would ask. I found a great deal on a larger Magic Chef dorm fridge. In the add, it basically looks like a Sanyo 4912 with a separate freezer compartment above with it's own door. My preference...

I'm looking to trade one of my beer engines for either a Ranco or Johnson digital temp controller. I bought both beer engines off of ebay UK and had them shipped to me. They were pulled from a pub, so they have seen some use and have the normal wear and tear that one would expect from such a...

A few weeks ago I attempted to brew a Black Butte Porter clone based on the recipe derived on an episode of Can You Brew It. Brew day went well, with the exception that it was a cold day and I struggled (unsuccessfuly) to hit my target mash temp of 154. She was at 149 for about 30 minutes and...

I was finally able to get around to cleaning and sanitizing one of my recently-purchased corny kegs. The black plastic end caps made an absolute mess of things. No matter how much I scrubbed or rinsed, the would still coat anything that touched them with black -my hands, the tub bottom, etc...

Brewed up a batch of Edwort Haus Pale this weekend. I've read in several places that the Nottingham is an aggressive yeast, boy is it ever! I've lost nearly 3/4 gallon to blow-off in ~18 hours and it doesn't show any signs of slowing anytime soon. I may have to buy a 6.5 gallon Better...

My babies just arrived safe & sound from across the big pond. :rockin: One of these bad boys is going to be the anchor piece for my keezer build that will be happening over the next several months as I accumulate the other materials. These are twin Chatsworth 1/2 pint, water cooled engines...

I apologize in advance for my newbness. I've searched around quite a bit on this topic, but since it's a bit controvertial, it's been hard to arrive at a firm answer. I've got a high-gravity altbier (1.067 due to my idiocy in undershooting my volume and not topping off) that's been in the...

Had my first solo brew day today - a partial mash Altbier. Things went pretty smoothly, except I had a brain fart and ended up with ~4 gallons in the fermenter, so my OG was around 1.067 in lieu of my target of 1.052. I'm not really sweating that. What I'm kicking myself over is not paying...
