I've been using the spray bottle approach before hot break and it's been working well. My PID is set at 67% to maintain a nice even boil and my boil off is exactly 1.5 gallons per hour. I haven't yet tried to truly max out the kettle yet, but I have some recipes written that will require a...

Aging in general is mostly a personal preference, and one of logistics, but bulk aging typically gives better results. That being said bottle conditioning could give you wonderful results. You'd need to pay special attention to yeast health at bottling and might consider pitching a bit of extra...

if you have access to CO2 and N2 independently you could use a blend box to mix them. https://www.micromatic.com/pro-line-gas-blender/micro-matic-co2-n2-gas-blender-2-blends-mm200

what if you tried making your own gasket with high temp food grade silicone gasket maker? i would experiment with using a lubricant of some sort on the surface of the pot where the lid contacts it and then laying a bead of silicone on the lid, then mating them and letting it dry (or at least...

I have a full on kal style electric brewery. My most recent sous vide was a 13lb turkey. cut it all into pieces for separate bags. dark meat went at 165 for 3 hours and the I dropped it to 145 and added the breasts for 2 more hours. delicious.

What are you trying to prove? Seems to me with all your testing and significant digits you've got a good handle on it. I recommend using a line length and ID combination that pours well. here's a good calculator for that...

Thanks for the response, bigdawg86. Looking for methods that don't use fermcap.

I'm looking for a method to finish about 12 gallons of wort from a 15 gallon electric keggle. I ran a boil test last night and my boil off came out to 1.5 gallons per hour, exactly what it used to be when I was using propane. I haven't yet tried to boil 13.5 gallons of wort but I'm pretty darn...

I'm building a new, very large, motorized mill. I'll be following the instructions for motorizing the mill in this thread. My question for you today, which big giant 3 roller mill is the best, and why? Is it the Crankandstein 328D? or is it the Monster Mill MM-3Pro? Or maybe your think the...

Thank you so much for this thread!, drunkenmonk! I'm about to pull the trigger on this build, but I'm wondering if anyone has seen a gear reducer that can handle 3450-3600 rpm? a 15:1 reducer isn't hard to find but they all take 1750 rpm max. 3450 rpm at 15:1 will get that mill going at 230...

thanks guys. The static roller spins fine on its own. I've been in the market for a bigger more efficient mill so I guess I'll just move it up on the list!

Anyone have trouble with their Barely Crusher not crushing grains? I've had it stop in the middle before but I've always got it going again. The rollers simply won't grab the grain. I took it apart completely, cleaned and dried the rollers, re-set the gap, still no crush. I can get them to grip...

Thanks for the reply, processhead. so my goal for the panel is to combine the instructions for 220/240v countries and back to back panels. so i want to run everything on 240v with enough amps to have both elements running. combining the requirements for the power in relay leaves me with needing...
