been told by a couple buddies that are EMT, that they would use oxygen tanks and breathe the pure oxygen. For me, its a good breakfast with bacon, and a couple tall bloody mary drinks. I feel perfect the rest of the day.

I just got a rims tube setup all put together and setup (minus the pump and fittings). I got the setup used from a fellow homebrewer, and got it for 150. Not a bad price IMO. I just gotta find a deal on the pump now.

How much for the shipping for the 50' immersion chiller to 90815? I am very interested in the wort chiller.

This is what I am going to do once i have the money together. First I have to buy the pump.. Man this stuff is expensive. **edit** Question to those in the know... Do you think there would be any difference in the useage of a copper pipe VS a stainless steel pipe? I was thinking that building...

Ive been using beersmith for a while. I really like that you have many optons , many features, coupled with a nice looking GUI. I have been hoping that they will be updating it for a while, as it does look a bit dated. Still works well though. I am finding one issue with Beersmith. The...

Yup, it came in a cereal killer box and everything. I threw all the box and packing materials away, and I was so pissed off and frustrated with the handle that I tossed that as well. So I don't think there is much I can do about it now, but at least I got lucky that it works.

Maybe I got a defective one?

I will take a picture of the shaft of my grain mill. When I look at the picture of the one on their site and look at mine, The only difference was that the screw on the hand crank didn't have the retaining nut. Meh, I am using a drill now so its a moot point.

I am going to try this this weekend.

Yeah I am thinking about doing this. I just need to find a decent price on a pump, and temp control. The less wiring I have to do the better. LOL Should have this setup in about 6 months or so.

Yeah buying upgraded equipment and having two burners with two pots makes thing SOOO much easier now. I can just heat the strike water dough in while having a few gallons heating up in the second pot, then add what I need to let it mash at the temps I want. I can even ramp up form lower...

The last recent batch I did, I adjusted the rollers in the same fashion of which you are talking about, but i used a credit card as the gap tool. Using the low RPM Drill that i show in my previous post. The crush was MUCH more even and very good efficiency.

Ive been frustrated with this as well. I set my Home Depot 10 gallon cooler up, preheat the mash tun with near boiling water, dump out the water and add my strike water. Still comes out about 1 to 2 degrees cooler than I want, So I just add about half a gallon of boiling water to get me...

Anyone have any experience with this? http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00KUY388M/?tag=skimlinks_replacement-20
