Now ya got me thinking!! Maybe cut off the mounting tab, then cut an appropriate sized square from the grating of the drip tray and drill a couple holes in the bottom of the drip tray to drop in the rinser into the drip tray. PROBABLY could have bought a drip tray with integrated rinser, but...

I plan on using this item from AiH. https://www.homebrewing.org/Glass-Rinser-Assembly-for-Drip-Tray_p_3929.html I know this is supposed to be mounted under a counter, but I don't really have counter space on the keezer. So i guess I am wondering if i could bend the mounting tab to attach to the...

So, I am pondering putting a glass rinser in my lil homebrew bar. I am struggling with trying to find a good mount area for the rinser. I have a 8 tap, 22cf, collared keezer. Wondering what your thoughts might be on where/how to mount the rinser. Would mounting directly to the wall next to the...

Maiden brew. Felt great!!

Manifold attached Finally got my head around the manifold. Used some conduit hanger and cut some quick notches to fit my application.

Finally making time to get together my brewstand, been at least 3 years of getting materials and time in order. Three years!!! Way overkill on metal, 3/8" angle iron. It was donated, so can't complain. Have casters on the back end and removable handles in front to wheel the monster around...

What volume did you put into your fermenter? I imagine you should be able to ferment 5.5 gal without issue. To be accurate, 1 gallon weighs 8.3 pounds, so fill to 45 pounds as measured on a scale. If push comes to shove, use a blow off tube...

Thought about fermentation in a sanke keg? You can even do pressure fermenting and definitely transfer under co2 pressure. Very portable.

I am trying to get a good idea of how to make a keezer collar for a 21cf chest freezer. I am wondering how everyone keeps the collar from moving around. I have read some folks do an outer and inner collar and am curious if that is for stability or just for looks. Thanks for the info.

why such a high temp for mash? what happened to 153°F? what are your gravity readings?

I run a small batch (2.5gal) of iodine from my cleaning bucket to the bottling bucket with the bottling hose. This also cleans my bottling bucket. Then I add the racking cane to the bottling spigot to empty the bottling bucket. this way I feel confident all the surfaces of the inside of the...

yeppers. and lookin at homebrew stuff on pinterest... who knew that pinterest wasn't just for porn and food?!?
