Yea, I'm digging up an old thread. Although, there isn't much out there on this beer, so I figured I would add some notes to this thread (for the next time I google clones of this brew...) I'm looking to brew this for the wifey, so I am doing some research. The spreadhsheet that Sagan...

I'd say no, they're not recirculating since they're using gravity. If MC Escher were a homebrewer, I bet he recirc'ed using gravity. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waterfall_%28M._C._Escher%29 :)

I sent a PM on the carboys. I'm local (Germantown) and can pick them up sometime this weekend. Kevin

For heat, you can use a cheap hair dryer. Built in fan is a bonus, less DIY, though it may look kind of cheesy.

The post title says 500, while the post body says 1000. Either a typo or an edit...

Here's another example of a grant with automated pump. http://www.wortomatic.com/articles/The-Liquid-Level-Doctor

Don't overthink it too much. Brew what you like. I recently had a pale, cream, blonde and a porter that I brewed last spring. They all still tasted great! Although, I'll agree that it's a good time to brew a big beer, since you won't be able to dip into it early :)

I'm with you on this one. The last Port-o-John I was in was stamped #2 recyclable. That shows that lots of plastic can be #2.

Is the cold plate still available? Or did crazyirishman34 take it with the gun?

Goose Island Imperial IPA in the discount cart. Marked down from $20 to $10. I got it when it was already 2.5 years old. I think I drank the last at 4 years. It was surprisingly good. Sure it probably didn't have the hop aroma it once did, but it had a great malt flavor with good bitterness...

The crummy part of this plan is that the keg post uses an odd size, 19/32". You can buy adapters from http://www.midwestsupplies.com or http://www.chicompany.net/ http://www.midwestsupplies.com/cornelius-plug-adapter-1-4-mpt.html...

I was at the World of Beer Festival in Milwaukee this year. The "Valley Brewery (MillerCoors Tech Center Pilot brewery)" was there. Of course, I don't recall what they had and the brewery listing says "TBD". What I do remember was they had a delicious IPA/APA with Sorachi Ace. If that is the...

That was definitely Wando's. Maduro is a cigar bar near Great Dane downtown, but they have delicious beer. When I was there 2 years ago, they had Red Rocket and Samiclaus on tap, among other beers of that caliber. Their website doesn't list beers. Worth a stop if already going to Great Dane.

Everyone else has had good ideas, here's my $.02 A few options: Leave all the high pressure outside. Move one of your regulators outside, on the tank. Use low pressure tubing into the fridge. This will be your highest pressure. Feed that to a manifold or stainless cross. From the cross...

Specifically, what problem are you trying to solve with the part above? Are you trying to get a connection to a secondary regulator inside the fridge?
