Ball lock connectors- looks to be ~$12 shipping USPS pretty much anywhere in the continental US EDIT: Filler has been claimed. EDIT: Chiller gone too.

Whoops. good catch. I missed that. Updating now.

I have a Last Straw Bottle Filler (http://www.northernbrewer.com/the-last-straw-bottle-filler) and a Copperhead Immersion Wort Chiller (http://www.northernbrewer.com/copperhead-immersion-wort-chiller) for sale. Both are fully operational with no leaks, etc. The filler has only been used like 2...

That's what I was thinking but the chest freezer doesn't seem to be an efficient use of space for a single Carboy. But I guess I already have it. Trying to decide on another larger chest freezer or maybe a homemade chamber

I started with a Haier 5.0 Freezer as my fermentation chamber with an STC-1000. I have since upgraded it to a BrewPi (which is awesome). It's great for single 5gal batches or 5gal and various 1 gal odds and ends. The problem I'm running into lately is trying to ferment multiple batches at the...

So I've been doing 1gal AG batches as well as 1/5Gal extract brews. I'm ready to move up to 5gal AG. Electric makes sense to me as I prefer the finer control/ease. Here's my thoughts/requirement: 1. Not concerned w the ability to go larger (10gal, etc) 2. want to be able to do most brews...

Yes, I'm with you re:blandness but the advantage of only having to plug them in to change them is pretty attractive for this use case.

Bringing this back up..what about something like this? http://learn.linksprite.com/pcduino/arduino-ish-program/spi/tutorial-of-using-e-paper-shield-on-pcduino/ You should just need to plug the arduino into the tap handle to change it.

I'm looking to do an imperial eggnog stout for the holidays this year. I'm thinking of starting with a good imperial milk stout recipe and then adding rum, cinnamon, nutmeg, clove, vanilla. Something in the neighborhood of Southern Tier Creme Brulee, but more distinctly eggnogg-y. Thoughts...
