I use the pump that came with the BB and do brew big NEIPAs. I use a hop spider that has a handle that allows it to it in the whirlpooling wort and i just stir the hop goop regularly and seem to get great extraction and tasty results. Incidentally, when brewing NEIPAs, I now put ALL my hops...

Came across this thread via the MTF page on THP and wanted to add my small data point as it pertains to champagne yeast and THP in sour beers. I recently bottled a mixed ferm sour and wasn't until halfway thru bottling that I realized I'd forgotten to add my champagne yeast (EC-1118). I added an...

Help! Mid-brew here. I adjusted heater power briefly and now not sure how to get it to kick back into automatically adjusting. Automatic is selected, heater ON but nothing happening on heater bar. Ok, guess i panicked. Thought element would kick on at least a bit when i was 1 degree above...

Wonder if someone can helo me with couple of quick questions: For the 15 gallon Brew Boss, which size hop spider works best and also which size of the King Cobra chiller? Thanks

I've had my eye on the system for a while but being in Canada, really hoping that Darin has another sale this Black Friday to help offset the cost (exchange rate & shipping). I asked but he was uncertain and seemed like they were overwhelmed with orders last year and don't want to re-live that...
