    Grainfather!!

    Thanks for that visual. Unfortunately I can’t utilize the 220v GF with my current set up but great info to have for the future

    Grainfather!!

    I’m working with CS now for my 3rd Grainfather replacement due to the melting plug issue. It’s getting tiresome as their CS is a bit slow these days. I didn’t think about asking for a 220v as replacement. Anyone know what type of outlet the 220v version needs? I already have 240v nema 14-30...

    Bootleg Biology OSLO

    I have definitely experienced the reported plastic/rubber flavors from Hornindal. Ended up dumping a few batches after some experiments with it testing against Ferm temps and pitch rates. Oslo had that same plastic/rubber twang.

    Keeping freezer condensation down!

    I think I may have found the issue but giving it a few days without opening the lid to see if I am on the right path. Seems that when I've cleaned and sanitized my freezers last, I removed the drain plugs on both and never put them back on. With it being pretty warm in Texas I am wandering that...

    Keeping freezer condensation down!

    Exactly how I have my set up now but with an Inkbird as stated. I do have the temp probe cord and the ceramic heater cords going in at separate points when I close the lid. I'll definitely try some foam around the heater cord. My gaskets appear to be in tip top shape so now I have my kettles...

    As mentioned I do have Eva-Dry's in each freezer and damp rids.

    Keeping freezer condensation down!

    I am curious, how do you have your heating source set up? I think it's definitely the seal but a little thrown off as to how two separate freezers are having the same issue at the same time when one is almost two years older than the other. I have a ceramic desktop heater as my heat source in...

    Keeping freezer condensation down!

    Hello fellow brewers! I am reaching out today to understand how everyone is keeping their condensation down in chest freezers used as ferm chambers? I have a two inkbird connected 10 cu. ft freezers out of three that just will not stop "pooling" water at the bottom/floor and it's driving me...

    NEEPAH IPA Blend - Bootleg Biology

    I'll reach out again but it'll be my third attempt since receiving the yeasts. Figured they're out by now so nothing more they could do besides a sorry but I am shocked that I have yet to receive a response. Even hit them up on instagram...

    NEEPAH IPA Blend - Bootleg Biology

    I loved the brulosophy blend in one of my last NEIPA's. I re-ordered that strain plus the NEEPAH but I am worried about using it because when it arrived it was swoller than Stallone in Rambo. Like if I shake it or grab it too hard it'll pop so I haven't been in a rush to use it as it also feels...

    How long are your beer lines?

    Bottle conditioning

    Not too early at all. I think it’s best to try early to sample and get to know the direction your Beer is headed. Trying bottles every week or so will let you know if the carbonation is right to your liking before cold storing the bottles when “ready” to your liking
