*Equipment is gone, Thanks" Hey All, with 4 kiddos I'm just not brewing the amount that I'd like to. The 1st 10 Gal pot has about 30 batches on it. The second 10 gal, hop spider, pump have about 20-25 batches on them. The 7.5 gal, immersion chiller have about 40-50 batches on them. Won many...

Price reduced to $75. Post/DM if interested.

Hey All, I have a Blichmann Therminator with a MoreBeer Inline Thermometer with QDs. This was purchased new, used less than 10 times. I've gone back to my immersion chiller with whirlpool and pumps (Jamil's setup). Asking $100 OBO. Located in San Diego. Available for Pick Up, otherwise...

Would love to see pics of your CIP setup when you have it up and working. However I found it much easier to clean than my old carboys. I do take off the ball valve/dip tube. My thought is that's where a lot of trub/yeast/hop material sits, so I'd rather give that a good clean.

Brewed my first batch with the Anvil Bucket. Great experience. I was able to complete a closed transfer effortlessly. For the Gas in, I used a #7 stopper with a MFL to Barb Adapter. This allows me to hook my CO2 tank directly to the top of the fermenter. For the output. I connected a 1/2"...

That's great! Just got my anvil bucket and will certainly try it this way. Thanks!

Is the keg flushed and pressurized with CO2 during transfer? Do you have to vent the keg periodically to keep it flowing?

That's fantastic!!! Thank you.

Sorry for resurecting an old thread, but the 2015 Report is now out. It displays the Sodium, Chloride, Sulfate and Alkalinity - Total as CaCO3. But I only see Total Hardness (ppm) instead of Calcium and Magnesium. Any idea how I can get that info? Thanks, Tim

Just brewed one last week. I mashed low at 147. Boiled temporarily to kill off any off-flavor generating bugs and to stop the mash. Cooled to 115. Pitched White Labs Lacto delbruckei (sp?) for 24 hours. I didn't actively warm it. I let it cool passively. Was 85 degrees the next day...

Super easy. Submerge them in CLR for 30 minutes. Wipe off, then rinse very very well (you don't want to drink that crap). Works for any "painted" label bottle.

Weird question, what's the exhaust like? Are you all brewing indoors? How does it handle the heat and moisture of the boil off?

Denny, how did the blind triangle test come out on the Rye IPA?

I have the same concerns. How reliable is the WiFi? Does it only need to initially download the recipe, or does it need the connection throughout the brew session?

Haven't quite decided to break apart the sale, but will let you know if I do.

Hey All, with 3 little kids I'm just not brewing the amount that I'd like to. The 1st 10 Gal pot has about 20 batches on it. The second 10 gal, hop spider, pump have about 10-15 batches on them. The 7.5 gal, immersion chiller have about 40-50 batches on them. The separate burners makes it...

Either your pressure is set too low or your keg is overcarbed. CO2 is coming out of solution.

There's also a risk of underattenuation with overpitching. I think in your situation you're probably fine. Check your FG at the end though and it'll give you feedback about it.

This is why I stopped cold crashing. You're oxidizing your beer if you cold crash in a carboy. I transfer to keg, flush with CO2, then crash. Wait 1-2 weeks pour off the sediment and then enjoy the beer. If I need to move the keg, I just jump it to another keg with a CO2 transfer. Then...
