I’d love to test one of these out.

I’m interested in testing one out. I’ve also been apart of a couple other trials and have always been pleased with the products.

I’d be happy to test one!

https://eviltwin.nyc/beer/greenhouse-oat-lager-conditioned-on-american-oak-foudre/ Evil Twin made a 100% oat lager that I tried recently. It’s surprisingly light and easy drinking. You might want to try sending them an email for more details on their process.

I make a Thai wit beer every year that uses lemongrass, lime leaf, lime zest, ginger and coriander. The lemongrass is definitely pretty subtle, but adds some depth with the other citrus. I would suggest adding some lemon/lime zest or if you can find lime leaves that would be ideal. They add a...

I’ve been having issues with my grain mill recently. I think it’s a cereal killer or one very similar to that. The main issue I was having is the grain will randomly stop feeding through and I have to dump it out adjust the rollers and try again. After this happened so many times I decided to...

Forgive me if this has been asked/answered already. I’m looking to upgrade the chiller that came with the unit. I’m looking at the CuSs brewing all in one chiller or possibly a CFC. I’m sick of running water for 20-30 minutes to cool to pitching temps. I’ve never used a CFC, but they sound...

I’d love to test one of these out!

I have the Fermzilla All Rounder so I don’t have the option of using the collection vessel. But I’ve had very good results with slowly releasing pressure via a spunding valve, removing the lid on top while slowly adding 1-2 psi of co2, then I drop the hood in and reseal the lid. I’ve started...

Thanks for the feedback. I’ll try thinning out my mashes and possibly going a little coarser on my grind and see if that helps. I haven’t been able to recirculate more than a slow trickle even with rice hulls added.

I apologize in advance if these questions have already been addressed somewhere in this thread. I’ve read through it, but it was a while ago. I’ve completed 4 brews with my 35L and have run into a few issues. First brew I had a terrible stuck mash, but have since gotten rice hulls and it’s been...

So whoever wired the service initially installed a 50 amp plug on the 30 amp breaker. I need to double check, but I believe they used a smaller gauged wire as well. Worst case I’ll have to run a new line as well. Are you sure that breaker you linked is GFCI? I didn’t see that in the description...

I have been looking into immersion heat sticks. I’m almost definitely going with the Brewzilla and I was looking at ways to heat up sparge water. Do you think the HotRod is worth the added expense over cheaper heat sticks?

I am trying to decide what my next upgrade for my hot side should be. I currently have a 5 gallon BIAB set up with an 11 gallon bayou classic kettles and a bayou burner. I store my gear in my barn, but brew on my front porch so I have to lug everything out and set it up the night before so I can...

I did read through that thread, but my issue has only been with this one specific grain. It hasn’t been an issue with the same mill gap for other grain bills. I was just curious if anyone has experienced the same thing with that malt.
