If you dont have a hopper yet, I just received the one that Fred sells for his mills. Mine is the mm3 and it fits like it was made for it :). I would have hade to buy the material to make one and I dont think I could have made one for the cost of his. Just a thought.

54 - Cant believe only 37 of us over 50 so far.

I have ordered both the pots and the conicals from him and have been very happy with his stuff. The first ones he had (conical) were a one-piece design and these are 2 piece. I like the 2 piece better pulse you can get it with or without the temp gauge. I thought they were very good buys. It...

I didnt find it bad, kinda liked it BUT I think its a bit overpriced. For $2 more I can get a 12 pack of Great Lakes. No contest there.

Hot water heaters have an anode in them to help keep the rust down. Not sure that you want that in your brew. You really do not drink water from the hot faucet. Just my opinion.

Does this help? Wort-O-Matic: Former B3 Deals of the Day

I had seen that the deal of the day was a $4500 used stainless sculpture for $1500. That was at 3:20 am est. If it were not for the $1200 shipping I would have seriously considered it. At 8:30 am est it’s sold. Anyone here get it?

For those of you that are condemning him have you tried his method and have found that it makes bad beer? Or is it that with all your knowledge you just know that it cannot be good.

Just wondering what everybody else does. So far I try to wash down the sides of the kettle with the stirring spoon during the boil to get the hop residue back into the wort as it boils. Does this matter or am I just wasting my time and that bit on the side of the kettle does not really matter as...

Would have to be in the $1500+ range BUT that is because I wanted SS stuff. Had a bunch of stuff from 10 years ago but since getting back into it "had" to get this year as long as it was cheap as far as I was concerned 4 SS 7 gal conicals for $250 with shipping apiece, 3 9 gal SS pots with...

I dont think they had one today - I think something may have screwed up with their web program. Oops I think it just showed up - wast not here a half hour ago. Is this the link McKBrew? Wort-O-Matic: Former B3 Deals of the Day

Cant say yes or no for my local HD but none of the local hardware stores around me carry them - in the swivel fitting, solid yes.

Used to use hot water and bleach or amonia soak and still had scrub some labels. Switched to oxyclean - (or any of the similar product) - let soak for a day or so, and so far have not had a stuck label yet.
