Well how about it? What do you feel would give you the largest brewing range? Not included as specialty malts are 2 row, Pilsener, Marris Otter, Munich and maybe white wheat malt. Lets hear it!

I make beer at a brewpub and we use large stainless versions of march pumps. There is no pressure in the fermenter or the bright tank while transferring. To can or bottle though, you have to keep the beer cold and under pressure otherwise the carbonation would turn to foam all over the floor.If...

It looks like on the most coarse setting you have a lot of intact hulls there. I would brew a batch or three and see what kind of efficiencies you get. If its too low then tighten the crack a little.

You can get Kiltlifter, Mudsharks Wit, four kinds of Oak Creek and If you act fast, Alaskan Smoked Porter at Pay 'n Take in downtown Flagstaff. One of my favorite shops in town.

The angle on a stainless steel racking cane is about right.

Fill your conical with water to your desired volume and mark that line on the outside of the conical with a sharpie. It will get you real close when filling with wort.

I use a heating pad until fermentation starts. Then the problem is keeping it cool enough.

I found a magnum of Anchor Chrismas from '98 at Tops this summer. It was in the refrigerator and only 14 bucks! It will be opened this winter.:ban:

I used the 1/2" silicone hose from B3. I don't know about the hose from AHS, but the hose from B3 is 1/8" thick walled. If you look at the same hose from US Plastic it is more both AHS and B3. (They are the same price from both homebrew shops.)

One thing you can do if you don't have rice hulls is to do two shallow mashes. If your grain bed is not very deep it wont compress itself and turn into a rock. Cut your grain bill in half and do it twice. Its more time and work, but hey... I had a stuck sparge ONCE and became a firm believer in...

Any of those cut vinyl stickers would work. Expensive though.

Homebrewers.com is here in Flagstaff. I bet your stuff gets to you very quickly. Also have any of you Las Vegas guys gone to a brewery to see about buying grains or bumming a pitch of yeast? Most of those brewers started as home brewers and would probably be sympathetic to your cause.

I signed up before I realized my state wasn't on the list. I got a padded envelope in the mail today anyway. Macro hell nothing! My last name is Bass. The thing just has my name stamped into it.

No, rush. I've got plenty of blanks made up. Good luck on your finals. I don't envy you at all ;)
