What do yall think of this order for a flight of beers for a tasting... 1) Cream Ale 2) Oatmeal Pale Ale 3) Brown Ale 4) Stout 5) IPA I'm conflicted about where to place the IPA in the lineup. Your thoughts?

So forget the whole "10,000" btu's per jet thing. Like the rating on the banjo burners, I think everyone knows at this point that these ratings are way far fetched. That said, I've been able to find pretty consistently the following btu rating for the 23 and 32 tip natural gas burners: 23...

So it looks like some water made it into my refractometer. I can barely read it at this point and upon closer examination I see some "fog" on the inside glass. Has this happened to anyone else? Can I open it up and dry it out?

I see a lot of folks are using these submersible pond type pumps for keg/carboy cleaning... running PBW and/or starsan through them. I'm wondering what type of plastic these pumps are made from? Safe for contact with PBW and Starsan? Here's some links to a few of them I've seen others...

I'll just start right off by saying that I know the beer will turn out fine. It'll taste great (I'm sure) and I'll enjoy drinking it. This question is to try and fiugure out where I went wrong in the process more than anything. So here's the deal. I'm on a 25gal system and have this Imperial...

Anyone have experience with the Therma K thermometer? http://www.thermoworks.com/products/handheld/therma_k.html Only about 10 bucks more than the thermapen and I like the idea of having the probe separate from the unit. With the probe included it appears as though the accuracy is a tiny bit...

Greetings. I have a need to convert an existing SRM to MCU. All I can find is how to get SRM from MCU, not MCU from SRM. If I wasn't an algebraic moron, I could certainly re-calc the formula for SRM: SRM color = 1.4922 * (MCU ** 0.6859) Can anyone help? I want to get the MCU from and...

If I have the threaded fitting for my sanke coupler and wanted to take a sanke keg to a party, could I use this type of ball lock injector (which I already have for my corny kegs) on a sanke keg? http://www.williamsbrewing.com/BALL-LOCK-INJECTOR-P84.aspx I wasn't sure if because of the...

Just picked up a cool aluminium yard stick on the cheap that I was wanting to use to check post boil volumes in the kettle... which means I need to be able to sanitize it. I know you don't want to leave starsan in contact with aluminium for extended periods of time (similar to copper), but...

Anyone ever authored a table showing different malts/adjuncts and their gravity points per lb?? Just messing around with manual calculations (yes... super geeky I know) and I can only find a very small list of a few basic malts showing the grav/lb. Thanks for the info! :mug:

Just curious what those of you with inductor tank fermenters are doing for cleaning. I'm doing a clean with PBW and a sani with StarSan currently... my issue is that I'm doing 15 gallons at a time in a 30 gallon inductor and I'm going through lots of PBW during the cleaning process...

Anyone ever rig up a standard "D" Sankey coupler specifically for force carbing beer? I know I can just leave the beer-out attached to the faucet to force carb... and I know I can buy a valve that I can screw onto the beer-out port to act as a cap-off. The valve for the coupler is 25 bucks...

So my new stirplate is all fabbed up. Still playing with magnet placement, but it's working well... except for that my power supply is getting pretty warm when plugged in. Making me worried that maybe I wired something wrong. See [really bad] pic for how I wired and let me know if you think I...

Anyone have the extension and can give me some dimensions? Obviously the perimeter is the same dimensions as the top of the base hopper... i'm just looking for the height of the add on section. Thanks!

I'm selling my 11 month old Barley Crusher Malt Mill. This is the standard model with the 7lb hopper. Comes with the manual crank handle. Works great and in great condition. Selling only because I've started brewing 1/2bbl+ batches more frequently and want to get something that can handle larger...

Selling off my pellet hops that are still in unopened, sealed, packages. Switching to all leaf hops. I have 3 4oz packs of Centennial and 1 1oz package of Warrior. Just looking to get my money back... Centennials are $5.00/ea and the Warrior is $2.50. Warrior came from my LHBS. Centennial came...

So I built mine, but I'm curious what someone might have to pay for a stair-step style 3-tier brew stand made out of 1.5" tubular (square) steel (not stainless) complete with 3 banjo burners and all hard-line LPG plumbing. Complete setup with everything ready to go - paint, valves, regulator...

Anyone have any experience with this scale from harbor freight for measuring out larger quantities of grain (as in more than just a couple pounds)? http://www.harborfreight.com/70-lb-32-kg-digital-postal-scale-95069.html

Anyone out there with a 30G Conical from Norwesco or Ace wanna help me with a couple measurements? I'm curious where yall have placed your racking arm (i.e. how far up/down on the cone)? Also, for those that have built a wooden stand - wanna share pics/info regarding the build of said...
