    TruGreen Disaster

    My wife thought she would do something nice and call TruGreen to come and take care of the yard. Well, they used some sort of weed killer on my yard and my hops which are 3 years old now. Just when they are going to be fairly good. I had nice crowns and had plans to cut them back before...

    Chugger Pumps - Just Awesome

    So, My March pump died and I wanted to try the Chugger Pumps. They didn't have whole units on sale on Ebay, so I just ordered the Stainless Steel Pump Head. It is a well made, beautiful pump. Well worth the $45 with shipping. I went to install it on my motor and low and behold, my pump was...

    Electric brewery build

    The beauty of RTD Probes is that they can be extended witout worry of a calibration issue. When I made my system, I ordered 6' leads for my PT100 RTD Probes. I was worried the same as you and after much research and asking of electricians at various chemical facilities, RTDs use 3 or 4 wires...

    My Single Tier DITCHES Build

    I am not sure of all the applications you are using, but my solenoids are fused in the box with AGC fuses. You can get these up to 30 amps, just make sure your wiring is sized to match the fuse. Fuses protect the wiring from catching fire, not so much the item they are powering. For my Rims...

    Sanitary Welds - worth $20 a pop?

    They look good, no worries. Get a stainless steel "toothbrush" from a weld supply house, like $2, and scrub them good, they will look like a million bucks. If you can't find one, I can send you one, we have about 4000 of them in the stockroom. If they are purged, you won't have sugar on the...

    Hop Plant Problem, advice needed

    I want the hops to grow exactly where they are since I set up a trellis system and they get the proper amount of sun. So I suppose I will just put the potted portion in the ground as well once the leaves die down. Thanks for all the help and advice.

    If You Hate Drilling Through Stainless Steel Try This

    Pilot holes are essential, and a good lube makes all the difference. We use a variety of drilling and tapping fluids here where I work and I like this stuff: http://www.mcmaster.com/#tapping-fluids/=911suy

    Hop Plant Problem, advice needed

    Hello, This past spring, I pot planted a nice Cascade and it grew and grew and I got 3oz from it dried, not bad for a first year. It has since died down. I was mowing the lawn the other weekend and decided I could move the post and try and store it. When I picked it up, it wouldn't move...

    My DIY Barley Crusher

    On my thread about my brew system, there was some discussion regarding my barley crusher. I said I would post some pics and I thought a new topic would be better. Anyway, with input from an Old Millwright that has restored mills both ancient and modern for the past 50+ years, I built this...

    DIY ScrapHeap V2.1 All electric Brewery

    Good points, I researched the failure temps of materials and it is PVC. I recirc at no more than 165 degrees and sparge at 180 degrees (no more mostly) in a fly sparge. I wouldn't want to run it under pressure, but it works, and was cheap. this is my test arm anyway and I will weld one up...
