    Kentucky Selling all gear in Louisville KY - 10 gallon all grain

    See add here: https://louisville.craigslist.org/for/6241684830.html Prefer to sell as a lot and not part out. A lot of barely used equipment as I only brew once or twice a year... which is the reason for getting out of hobby. I will travel to deliver within a reasonable distance. If...

    Temp control help

    Hello again HBT! I've decided to move forward with a keezer build and for that purpose purchased the Thermostar temp controller from Northern Brewer. I went with this model because it claimed it could heat and cool... well that's true but you can only do one at a time aka unplug freezer and...

    Very odd brew day

    So something about this brew day, which ended up low on OG, doesn't make sense to me. Anyone have any ideas? So my expected pre boil gravity was 1.043. I was high with a gravity of 1.048. I would think this would result in a higher than expected OG in the end to start with. But then I ended...

    Buying a house based on homebrewing convenience? !

    So we are looking to purchase a new home... our first home. Is it wrong of me that every house we look at I judge its merits by how easy and convenient it will be to continue or progress my hobby? Lol. Looked at a winner today going for a second viewing tomorrow with family members and a tape...

    All grains wonderful, extract is undrinkable

    So I've had this issue since starting to Brew. I do a mix of all grain and extract... extract when I want the convenience of it. My all grain beers usually come out great but all extracts have this absolutely horrible off flavor. I can't put my thumb on what the flavor taste like so I can't...

    Help me fix the Barley Crusher I've used only ONCE!

    Shank corroded?

    So I thought my shank was stainless but it looks like it may be chrome plated as it appears to be corroding or rusting. I thought it was gunk but a couple soaks in oxy and then blc did nothing so Its not dirty. Is it still usable or should I replace? So many beers... so little time.

    Refractometer issues

    So I have a cheap 30 dollar refractometer got off Amazon.com. I have it calibrated using distilled water. It has ACT. I have tried numerous times and this thing is useless. I want though to make sure that I'm not missing something or using it improperly. Issue is that it reads VERY high. I...

    year old smack packs

    So I noticed at a local liquor store that dabbles in homebrew supplies had a box of some 50 smack packs labeled Expired, Discard. Most were about a yr old. I thought of making an offer on them. 50 cent a piece? Is it even worth my time?

    thermapen

    Thinking of returning a refractometer for a thermapen. I don't think this refractometer will be much use to me as the scale is really small in the view finder thingy and it seems more trouble than its worth. I'd prefer the ol' manual hydrometer for ease of use. Will I regret doing this? I...
