Recently moved to an apartment so I'm downsizing some of my brewing equipment. This listing is for my 6 gallon glass primary fermenter. I've had about 5-8 batches through this before I moved. Asking $40 with local delivery (68521) preferred.

Recently moved to an apartment so I'm downsizing some of my brewing equipment. This listing is for my two Better Bottle primary fermenters. They have about 4 batches through them and worked wonderfully. $20 for one, or both for $35. Local delivery (68521) preferred

Recently moved to an apartment so I'm downsizing some of my brewing equipment. This listing is for my mash tun. Regular 5 gallon Menards water cooler with the addition of a stainless hose braid for a wort filter as well as a 1/2" single port ball valve. Had the opportunity to use it once before...

Recently moved to an apartment so I'm downsizing some of my brewing equipment. This listing is for my stainless HERMS tank. 8-9 gallon capacity and will hold temperature ridiculously well. No risk of scorched wort as the only thing direct fired is the HERMS tank. This is a great start to...

I like the idea of the otter with the munich, sounds like a nice mix. I'll go looking to see which of the suggested hops is cheapest in bulk.

Hey all, Thinking about trying out a new stout recipe, like an oatmeal stout on steriods but not to 'imperial' strength. Like 1.060+ but less than 1.080 6 lbs 2 row 6 lbs Munich 0.5 lb Roasted Barley 1 lb flaked oats 0.5 lb English Dark Crystal 0.5 lb English Black Malt Still...

For specialty grains I was thinking carapils for some body and head retention. I'm looking for easy this time around so I'm looking at honey and DME and hops. Not looking for a lot of hop presence but enough so that it's not super crazy sweet.

You are correct; I was thinking 2 oz at 60 min and that would be it. Don't these tend to take 6 months or more to age? I thought aging that long would likely allow any hop aroma to fade? I'll think about the mini mash idea. Has merit.

I have two ounces of Styrian (3.8% alpha) Goldings in the fridge that I was thinking about using. Beer Smith puts that at 28.8 IBU if I use 10lbs honey and 3 lbs of extra light DME. Was thinking about maybe some Belgian Aromatic or Carapils as well for extra malty-ness and head retention.

Aloha, Planning on doing a Belgian Braggot with Wyeast 3787 and I'm looking for some basic braggot info: When using hops what would be the target IBU? What is a good ratio for honey vs. malt? In the little bit of research I've done I read 2 lbs of honey to 1/2 lb of malt.

"Please define your H-H-G circuit. What is it used for and how is it wired? What is the circuit breaker size? Also the wire type used for the power delivered? When was it installed? (date wiring completed)" I'm certain that there is some resource that can point me towards being able to answer...

....I had no idea that you could successfully grow hops in Nebraska. I don't have any room at my house but my family does have a 125 acre farm by Waverly..... Hmm. Are hop plants forgiving of let's say not a whole lot of attention? I'd plant them but maybe not be back to visit for a week at...

I would love more info P-J. I'm an electrical moron so every little bit helps. So I'd still be looking at: 3 hole dryer outlet ->GFCI Spa panel->PID and pump control box? To attempt to cut down on my dumb newb questions I'm going to read some stickied electrical info and look through some of...

Crudbuckets.....dang old wiring. Well there is a 120v outlet about 5 feet or so away from the 240v outlet and they are on different circuits. So I guess for simplicity's (kind of) sake I'll just have to power the pump independently. Perhaps (not sure if this is possible) make the pump switch...

That definitely looks pretty close to what I need. Thanks!

After about an hour of scrolling and searching I'm throwing the question to the hive mind. I am looking for a diagram that allows me to plug into an existing 3 wire 240v 35A outlet (and use a gcfi spa panel so I don't....ya know: die or burn my house down) and power one element and a chugger...

I've been looking at this: http://www.brewershardware.com/Chugger-Polysulfone-Inline-Pump-CHUGGER-PL.html I was wondering if anyone had a used one that they didn't need anymore. Or something similar?

I was reading through this: http://www.homebrewfinds.com/2012/02/recirculating-draft-line-cleaning-build.html And I was pondering if you could use a similar pump to make a DIY version of Mark's Keg Washer (http://www.northernbrewer.com/shop/mark-s-keg-washer.html)? I was thinking of...

Cool, I'm a fan of confirmation. Thanks for the info. Now onto the bigger issue. SWMBO has vetoed upgrading the panel at this time (and possibly forever unless we start having problems). I do have two circuits going into my workshop that is close by (like under 10' from the main panel)...

Okay I finally pulled the main. There are two 100a cylindrical fuses. So would that mean 100a service with redundancy or 200a service? "it is probably best to get an electrician involved." Yup, going to. I just want to have a clue as to what my house has before calling one.
