Bowditch Vol. 1 & 2! Never know when you'll need to calculate the altitude correction for atmospheric pressure!
Nice set up!
Damnit man! I would love to see this in person! Love it, keep up the good work and happy brewing!

That's funny I moved from SoCal a year and a half ago... My adult children and my nephew still live there and I will be visiting for the birth of my daughters baby in a little over a week! My nephew is a marine stationed on Pendleton...

I have 10 gal pots so can I push the system to 15 gals kind of like extract brewing? Add extra water in the end as long as my sugars/gravity allows it?
Guvnorlecappere said:So tonight I wired in the pumps.
I wanted to keep the ship theme going soooooo...
-When I fire up the left pump (#1) the red light (Port Side) turns on.
-When I fire up the right pump (#2) the green light (Starboard Side) turns on.
Call me crazy but I just might have to see it this ship can float some beer real soon. I have never had so much fun in a project. My wife wants me to hurry up so she can help me brew...I say that but she's the only reason I still bottle. She enjoys filling up the bottles...what a great woman!
I need to put all the equipment and stuff into my BeerSmith2 program next. I'm new to the all grain so what should I be looking for and what's your thoughts on the system?
I live on base here at Camp Pendleton Ca. I want to get the water profile Ph levels worked out to so I need to test the water or call the water company for this information?

I have read alot of information of the forums but I'd think that each system has it on differences or is it basic numbers and science?
You guys have been awesome and I enjoy the replys always...thanks again for the help both direct or indirectly.

Guvnorlecappere said:Here are a few more.
I have been reading through numerous web sites since I started home brewing. HB Talk is by far the most informative. With switching to all-grain brews, I have been looking for a brew stand setup. Being a DIY type of person, a part of this hobby that I enjoy is the building of the equipment for brewing better beer with each addition. I have been searching for my first brew stand for several months now, and when I came across Travis's Dead Reckoning Brewer, I knew this was a brilliant piece of craftsmanship. I've heard that imitation ii the best form of a complement. I hope you don't mind. Thanks Rusty
Travis, seriously nice work, but I gotta ask...vinyl hoses?? Why no silicone?
I'm going to change to silicone but I had most of the hose I used so I just went with it. What's the pro/cons to silicone?
