A 10 gallon pot is the perfect size for 5 gallon all grain batches. A typical 5 gallon batch starts out at 6.5-7 gallons pre boil. The remaining space gives you some breathing room to avoid boilovers. On the other hand if you are doing extract or partials and topping off a 10 gallon pot will...

Glad to hear that the I phone survived. Enjoy the maiden voyage on your new electric brewery. Should only take a few batches to get everything dialed in. I can totally relate to the first batch after all the planning, work, real life delay's and everything else involved to get to this point. Do...

[Hope the phone survived. That would really suck. Could be the most expensive part of my build..a new iPhone!!!! :drunk: :( :(:confused::confused::confused:

Had the same issue with Auber cables. They are very delicate. I bit the bullet and bought a custom cable from the electric brewery. Problem solved.

Would really love to win something. Count me in.

I recently upgraded my system and have gone a different route for hop filtering. It does work well. My only issue was having to slow the flow to a trickle once the level in the brewpot reached the hopstopper.

This is a hop-stopper from http://www.theelectricbrewery.com/hop-stopper. Cost to buy new shipped is $76.50. Asking $61.50 shipped lower 48. This is a pic inside a 10 gallon Blich. Below is a pic out of the pot. This unit is specifically designed for a 10-30 gallon Blichmann brew...

Welcome from Rochester,NY

Also off topic: Actually you do bring up a good point. Recently went out for lunch at a local pub and they had DFH 90 minute on nitro. It was excellent! Cheers!

I have a 2 year old 5# aluminum CO2 tank that I no longer use. Have been thinking about going nitro for my stouts. Would be willing to meet you half way any Sunday at your convenience.

I have a 10 gallon blich. The id of the kettle is 13 5/8". Have the Camco 5500 watt element ripple installed with 1/8" clearance. Just my 2 cents but if it was me I would stay away from any element that is zinc plated. BTW love your spreadsheet.

Welcome. You have come to the right place. These guys will have you brewing great beer in no time.

Temperature control during fermentation is key to making great beer. I live in an apartment and have utilized the swamp cooler method to keep temps in check. Your beer is not destroyed fermenting at 72 however you may pick up unwanted esters (fruity flavors). A rubbermaid tote bin and frozen 2...

Awesome job guys. My grain is stored away and I still have 1/2 hour before leaving to go to work. Thank you Jeff, Keith and Rob. :mug:

I am doing 5 gallon batches on my kitchen table. At this point I am using 2 - 10 gallon Blich's bk & mlt with fb and a 10 gallon rubbermaid cooler as an hlt. My goal is to set up my 3rd Blich with an ss herms coil and to utilize 2 pumps one for water the other for wort and to control it via 1...

My little control box just keeps doing what it suppose to do. Could not be more pleased. It is perfect for me and my 1 bedroom apartment. Still saving my pennies to get the herms together. At this point all I have is the pot and element. GF lost her job so most of my extra cash is going her way...

Add my change to the kitty as well.

White sandy beaches, a gentle tropical breeze and an ice cold Red Stripe with a twist of lime. Life is good today. It just doesn't get any better than this. :D
