    Show us your panel

    Haha! Absolutely nothing. I am a System Operator by trade so it was a cheap corky addition to the panel that I chuckle at each time I fire it up. The tubing is silicone with 1/2" orange wire loom slipped over it.

    You can either remove the hoses and clean the kettles in the sink or mix up about 3 gallons of PBW and move it from one kettle to another. I usually do the PBW so I don't have to break all my lines apart. I also ordered a big brush from Five Star Chemical. When the PBW is in the kettle, I...

    Glycol Cooling for Large Ace Roto Tanks

    That's great! I'm running a chest freezer with a kitchen garbage can inside full with about 12 gallons of RV glycol at roughly 3 degrees F. You are spot on with the amount of head needed, I am struggling deeply with getting the proper size pump. I pump through 6' of 1/2" pex, then reduced to...

    Glycol Cooling for Large Ace Roto Tanks

    Fermentation temp control with glycol reservoir

    I just did something identical to what you are looking to do. I used 1/4 ss coil inside two 14g conicals. My first reservoir was 5 gallons, between the heat from the submersed pump and the returning glycol, it wasn't very efficient. I move to a kitchen garbage can from Lowes which held 14...

    Consistency while harvesting Yeast

    TY Gentlemen, just not sure, I've only seen commercial brewers harvest yeast from a conical and it was like whipped butter so I thought I was doing something wrong. Going to let it settle a few more days and see if there are any changes.

    Consistency while harvesting Yeast

    I just recently started fermenting in a conical fermenter. I am trying to collect some trub from the fermenters after about 4 days. The consistency is more like milk than cream, the temp is 68 and I have not cold crashed yet. Am I collecting to early? How long should I wait to collect, then...

    Wyeast equivalent to Danstar Nottingham?

    I would say 1968.... I am wrong! For some reason I was thinking Windsor Dry Yeast

    Burner

    I purchased 32 Tip jet burners for my all grain system, is there any advantage to having the 23 Tip other that size of burner? Will the 32 heat quicker?
