I'll probably do the same as before. Pale ales and IPA's but no imperials. Some porters/stouts. Amazing how much I forgot about the overall process after ten years. I had a 15 gallon and don't remember that being too small.

Thanks for those suggestions. I'm in deep research mode and the first thing I see is a 5k budget seems a bit high. I remember prices being much higher back in the day for upper tier equipment. I'm not going cheap but looks like I can get some very nice pieces for much less.

Brewed for about 10 years or so around 2007-2017. Moved and did not take my brewing equipment as the other house was not favorable for the setup. Figured I was done. Had a basement and a 240 volt brew in the bag 15 gallon system and converted freezer with four pulls. Starting out with the turkey...

Based on no actual data, I figured the stick thermometer would be more accurate. But when I got a 40° degree reading from ice water and the laser had 31.5°, that made me question the stick. I'll check out Thermoworks.

I have a stick and laser temperature probes. I they were giving me different readings so I took them to the local brew shop. We tested his stick probe, my stick probe and my laser in cold tap and hot tap. His stick read about 4° higher than my stick and my laser about 4-8° lower at cold tap...

Jaded Hydra Immersion Chiller!

Went to the closest Walmart Neighborhood Market at lunch today and they had a Primo water dispenser. It was RO and 37 cents/gal. So a good place to start.
