OK here it is. i would like to hear peoples opinions about what type of manifold people use for a keg that is converted to a mash tun. i have one that is very well insulated, but i have been working on manifold designs. i used to use a 10 gallon cooler from home depot. i had a false bottom...

i am in the planning stages of building my new brew sculpture. i am currently considering which burners to use. i am looking at the multi-jet gas burner. this product is for propane only, which is fine with me. but it is high pressure. amazon has a 0-30psi regulator they recommend to buy...

We just started brewing 10 gallon batches and it is going great. the only problem is that we do not have a large enough fermenter to fit the batch in, so we have to split the batch in half. i am not to excited about that. so the question is what do you guys use in this type of application...

i was wondering if some of you "advanced" brewers could offer your opinion on step vs. infusion mashing. i am fairly new to AG and i try to read as much as i can about it. in the back of the book The Joy of Homebrewing are some recipes. everyone of them says to step mash??? is this...

i just completed a hoegaarden clone a couple of days ago. i used white labs belgain wit 400 yeast and it has been really going pretty well. it is approx 66 to 67 degrees where the beer is fermenting. today i went down and the krausen head is about 3" and looks good. the only thing is the...

I pitched my yeast starter yesterday, it was still bubbling (it was made 2days earlier), is that OK, or should you wait till fermentation is done and the yeast settles to the bottom? anyway my wit stated bubbling about 4hrs after pitching!!!!

my question is simply how hot is to hot for sparge water??? i sparged today and by the end of the event the grains were about 172 to 174? what do you think?

i was wondering where i can get a sight glass for my newly convert keggle!!!!! pretty excited about using it. any thoughts let me know.:mug:

i have very limited experience with AG but on my first couple i did not "officially" mash out. basically i ran my mash two different ways. first was a batch sparge and the second was a modified continuos sparge. so the question is if i am using lets say 10lbs of grains, and the mash temp is...

a little while ago i did a phat tyre from northern brewer. i did a full 5 gallon boil and it seemed to go smoothly. i did try something different, i used a blow off tube in my 5 gal carboy. since the tube was not as tight as i would like i used duck tape to "seal" the gaps. it worked out...

i just tried a new technique on a phat tyre amber ale. i used a 5 gallon carboy to primary ferment in. i used a large blow off tube, but the fit was not real tight so i "duck taped the tube in place"??? i know it sounds funny but it seemed to work well. within 12 hrs fermentation started...

the question of the hour is do you or should you aerate a 5 gallon wort. do you get enough o2 in the wort by pouring the wort in the fermenter fast, then shake? thinking about going to 5 gallon boils but if i have to buy a bunch of extra equiptment i may hold off for awhile. thanks for the input.

is it worth the extra money for a 9 gallon pot in order to do a 5 gallon boil? i am looking a buying a new pot. i looked at brew4less.com, you can get that pot for 99.00. anyone have any experience with this pot? it seems like a good deal. let me know, thanks.

i have a question concerning the use of iodophor? after you sanitize your equiptment in the solution do you have to dry the pieces before using? thanks for the help...i know i could read bottle but i am lazy right now and would really like an answer soon. thanks.
