Thank you all.

What confused me is this statement from another thread: (link) Since I initially burst carbed it at 30 PSI and now it's sitting with gas on at 10 PSI, wouldn't it just level at 10 PSI and be undercarbed?

Thanks! Do I keep bleeding it daily or just set the regulator to 10 PSI and leave the gas on (hopefully no leaks!)?

Hi, This is my first time kegging my first batch. Basically, everything 1st :) I cold crashed the beer for 24 hours at ~40F. Transferred the beer (I brew a saison), purged the air out with 5 PSI couple of times. Then I put the pressure to 30 PSI, rocked for 1.5 minutes. Purged and repeated...

Wow, that's amazing. A huge thank-you. Do you have the BOM in Excel? As for wires/plugs/etc., I'll let the electrician source it locally. I have 1 dryer outlet, which is rather far away from the brewing spot, so I will need some sort of an extension cord that will handle the load.

Thanks! Getting the equipment piece-by-piece together was tough enough, I am totally lost when it comes to electrical work (I'll outsource it but need to know what to tell the contractor).

Nope. I'll heat it once before mashing and then again before gravity sparging. BK has 5,500 element and HLT has 4,500 element.

That's exactly it :)

It's insulated, holds 49-52C easily for an hour. Gravity will feed warm water from HLT during sparging.

I'll be doing fly sparging. Pump will recirculate the wort. All 3 vessels are converted kegs.

* 2 elements from http://www.theelectricbrewery.com/heating-elements They are not controlled in any way, and I need advice as to the simplest and cheapest option to where to plug them in. Some sort of "on/off" switch and maybe "high/low" regulator panel? * Chugger pump * 2 vessels (HLT and BK)...

Hi, I finally got all of the components for my electric brewing setup except for the "electrical" part :) I've ordered a panel w/QO Type 3R non-metallic loadcentre and a 50A GFCI, as well as 4500 & 5500w elements. I plan to use my dryer outlet. My questions: 1) I want to make a portable...
