I have a buddy who is looking to join us for the Friday night session. If anyone has an extra ticket that they are looking to sell, please let me know.

I have decided to go a different route with my system and am selling 12 motorized ball valves. They are all new in box and have never been put into use. Like the title says, they are 12V CR-3 304SS motorized ball valves with manual overrides. I am looking to get $40 a piece. Take all 12...

I am not sure what this means for the Brewtroller/Fermtroller project but the place that sold all of the hardware and provided support is closing down. https://www.oscsys.com/

Is what it muttered to myself today as I realized that I had poured 2/3rds of the yeast starter for my Clementine Wit into my Speidel containing my already fermented pumpkin spice ale. What is your best "Oh you stupid f@€% moment?"

I am finishing up the wiring on the control panel for my Brewtroller based EHerms. I have the Oscsys E-Stop module which pauses the Brewtroller and opens two relays when the E-Stop button is pushed. I intend to use the two E-Stop relays to control the high voltage and low voltage sides of my...

I am headed to So Cal at the end of the month and will be on the hunt for some craft beers to try. The LA Times has their list which is apparently debatable. http://www.latimes.com/business/money/la-fi-mo-have-a-hoppy-easter-10-top-southern-california-craft-beers-20130329,0,3653646.story For...

Does anyone have any experience with the hopbacks from Stout? If so, I am interested in hearing your input, observations, and recommendations.

I am looking to have the enclosure for my electric brewery water jetted or laser cut. For those of you who have paid to have it done, what did it cost you? I have been quoted $90-100 to laser cut the door based upon my Autocad drawing. Obviously, this applies to people who had their panels cut...

So a friend asked me to brew some beer for his Superbowl party about a month or so ago. I gladly obliged as my keg of Kingbrian's Caramel Amber ale went over very well last year. I have been working on perfecting my pale ale recipe and have been getting great results consistently so I brewed...

I saw this on Slickdeals and figured that it may be of interest to the HBT community. http://slickdeals.net/permadeal/87092/hidden-springs-maple-64oz-hidden-springs-maple-grade-a-medium-amber-100-pure-vermont-maple-syrup Enjoy

I broke out my new 30L Speidel fermenter yesterday to use on a dry stout recipe that I brewed. After cleaning and sanitizing the airlock, I filled it up with Starsan to the fill line and quickly noticed that Starsan was running out the bottom tube of the airlock. At first I thought that it...

What kind of improvement in my brewing can I expect to see?

I have a 12v power supply for my Brewtroller based Eherms build that can be wired for 115v or 230v power. Is there any benefit to wiring it for one over the other or is it purely preference? The spec sheet on the ps can be found here: http://www.meanwell.com/search/mdr-60/default.htm.

People will go to the trouble of brewing their own beer but are too lazy to remove the labels from the bottles. Discuss.

Has anyone used one of these for a kettle dip tube? It appears that it would be simple to trim down to the right size. http://www.menards.com/main/plumbing/rough-plumbing/pipes-tubing-fittings/fittings/cpvc-fittings/cpvc-fittings/tub-shower-pressure-connector/p-1340693-c-9378.htm

SWMBO isn't a big fan of beer but she does like hard cider. I made my first foray into cider making today. Here is what I went with: 5 gallons of Musselman's apple cider 1 pint of amber caramel syrup from KingBrian's recipe WLP002 English Ale yeast. I am looking forward to trying it.

I have noticed a lot of comments in the classified section of the forum where people are claiming that items are overpriced. In all fairness, some of them are. I have also noticed a lot of new users asking if a price for item X is a good price. There are several websites that list deals for...

I am looking for a beer judge to give me an honest and trained analysis of some of my homebrew. Given where I live, I don't know of anyone locally. I'll send you some of my homebrew from time to time and all I am looking for is a your honest opinion and suggestions for how I can improve...

I have a line on a free operational 1 liter per hour Corning Mega-pure laboratory still. I was thinking of using it to distill water for my brewing. I figure that I will need to come up with a bigger tank to hold between 10 and 20 gallons of water as it will take about 24 hours to distill 5...

The father of a buddy of mine runs the water department in our town. He hooked me up with the water reports for all of the wells in our town. Given the fact that all of the wells feed into the main and there is no way to determine exactly which we'll supplies my house, I found the four closest...
