    California Selling it all - single tier, keggles, chest freezer fermenter, J bird.....

    Getting out of the hobby to get into others. This was a really fun hobby that started with a Mr. Beer in 2003 and evolved to what I am selling now. I am happy to send any specific pics if anyone wants to see anything. I would like to try to sell it all to someone. It's priced basically for...

    Frozen March Pump - not the head

    Can I fix this - the alignment of the rotor? It feels tight when turned by hand without the power on, but I have no experience with doing this prior to it not working.

    Frozen March Pump - not the head

    There is a power hum when I plug it in. There is no electrical 'burn" smell. I've taken off the head, and popped off the vent in the back, but I can't get the case off to clean the actual motor. I'm going to get contact cleaner today and 3 in 1 oil. When I rotate the shaft by hand, it seems...

    Frozen March Pump - not the head

    Running a single tier 2 pump direct fired, recirculated setup. Both March pumps are not turning anymore after a fairly major boilover (don't ask!). I took off the heads and cleaned them, but they still are stuck. Even with the head off, the shaft won't spin under power. I tried to disassemble...

    Taste Difference between Extract or All-Grain on a Hefeweizen?

    I have used this grain many times to make a great hefe: 60/40 what/ barley mix by Breiss I've steeped a pound of honey malt in it before and I recommend that to try as well - delicious. But then I went AG. And I will not go back. Pilsner malt with wheat malt mashed in and some rice hulls...

    Stuck fermentation vs lower attenuating yeast strain

    Post recipe. I'd be willing ot bet 1.017 ia right on for WOP001 vs. a lot of extract IPA's.

    First brew on new rig tomorrow

    It was really awesome! Less boil off than expected, but other than that it was right on! There was a lot of beer wort on the ground while I took a hose from the pump to the kettle, etc., but I'm sure I'll get better at that with time. It was MUCH easier in all!

    First brew on new rig tomorrow

    I've made enough brews over the last 7 years to know what to expect - anything! It just can't go bad looking at my new beauty.

    First brew on new rig tomorrow

    Just wanted to gloat. I'm super excited - even for the things I'm not expecting! 1.062 ESB (but who knows what I'll actually get for numbers - it's a guess at about 80%)

    Carbonation Tablets

    I keg the batch and let it all carb up. Then follow the "we don't need no stinking beer gun" thread. Hasn't let me down for years and dozens of batches.

    beer tastes metallic after being kegged

    I had a few beers that did this to me also. I replaced a bunch of equipment without change. It ended up being the water! I tried RO and added salts and no more metallic flavor. There are other things that can cause that flavor besides your kegs. If you've cleaned all the parts, get a new CO2...

    Dry hop time

    It'll be there, just less. Dry-hopping will develop different flavors by different times left in as well as amount of hops used. I would say a min. would be 4 says, but for light AA hops like Fuggles, I'd use 3-4 oz if I was going to do 4 days. I like 5-7, but do what you gotta do!

    BS 2.0 est mash eff%

    That helps.......but I think it very strange that someone could adjust their grain crush and have the same eff% per BS.

    Diacetyl rest, too late?

    I would think there's plenty of yeast in there for the diacetyl unless you filtered or chemically killed the yeast.
