If you are going to purchase RO water at a supermarket filling station, you may want to pick up a cheap TDS (total dissolved solids) meter to make sure you are getting good RO water. I tried buying water at my local supermarket, that used the same source water as me, but ran it through an RO...

This isn't much harder than my water, you might look into doing a slaked lime treatment, this will precipitate the CaCO3, basically turning it into chalk that drops to the bottom of the container you treat it in. Then you just decant the water leaving behind the chalk. I use the brewers friend...

Take a look at this.

If you put the CO2 tank on the outside of the minifridge, would it still have enough room for one keg and some bottles?

You might take a look at these, if you are worried about the type of plastic...

I have been thinking about this myself. I haven't really started planning yet, but I can think of a couple features I would want. Obviously insulated with ac/heat. A floor drain would be a big plus. I recently converted to electric, so 240V power would be needed. A hotplate style burner for...

I replaced the sensor with a new 3 wire sensor and the new one worked fine. I suspect it was a bad sensor all along.

I have a Mypin TD4 and a 2 wire Pt100 RTD sensor. I have the sensor connected with jumpers between pins 7/10, and 8/9 as the wiring diagram and other posts here suggest. I am getting a temperature reading of about -340f it is cold here, but not that cold. I have tried switching the RTD wires...

I don't know how this price compares with the vittle vault, but this might be a good option.

I was in my local Menards yesterday and they care these as well. They also carry the gamma seal lids, which might be ideal for grain storage.

I am searching for a clone recipe for Odell's Isolation Ale. I am not as interested in brewing an exact clone as I am in learning what goes into a beer that I enjoy this much, and If I am way of track on what i think is in it. If I had to guess, I would think some Maris Otter, light crystal...

Helibrewer, any more pictures, or a build thread?

My local Wal-Mart has the same Encore plastics buckets for under $3. They are in the paint section, they have lids as well.
