Woohoo!

It appears that both kettles are the same size. Are there other kettles sizes besides yours where this is the case? TIA

Wondering if anyone has had a filter basket made for a 10 gal electric BoilerMaker.

That's what I would like too. I think the 7.5 gal pot is too small to be usable for higher gravity beers. I wonder if it is possible to mod the drain tube (re-bend it) in some way to use it with a 10 gal pot. I already have one, and wanted to use it in a breweasy system, but I don't make 10...

Anyone know if is possible to use a 10 gal BM on top instead of the 7.5 (for 5 gall batch size). I am thinking a lot about acquiring this system to go all electric. I already have a 10 gal G1 pot, so I was thinking I could get another 10 gal G2 elec kettle, get a false bottom for my 10 gal G1...

Woohoo!

Count me in! Woo hoo!

Wow! Lotsa goodies! Slainte Mhath!

Anyone have any thoughts of the implications of the basket (4-6" dia.) sitting directly on the bottom of a burner heated kettle, versus sitting 0.5-1 inch off of the bottom? I am strongly considering one for my 10 gal boilermaker, and I wonder if it is also worth it to have some sort of...

Awesome! Thank you for the info. Live/Brew and learn. This is going into a southern English brown.

The clumpy consistency of this yeast looks strange to me. I usually brew with wyeast, but am trying WL this time around. I usually see the yeast completely dissolved in the wort. Could this be a bad slant? It is WL002. Aaron

I used a quarter oz. to goose a Berliner I made, my first. It had not soured much at all after four months, despite having a one liter starter made from apple juice and acid malt, plus a slant of WL lacto. D. The sourness took off after adding the lactose (just poured the powder in), but I think...

Woo hoo!

I just started using an A419 (Johnson) controller. I was curious if anyone has used this type of controller with a dormsize kegerator (mine is similar to the typical sanyo model, which has the chilling plate at the back of the fridge). I left all the default factory settings the same except...

I saved the carboy dregs and oak cubes from an 18 month old sour, my first, that I saved in a sanitized jar. They come from a Roeselare fermentation. I have kept the jar in my kegerator, now for about 4 months. I'm curious about if these dregs will be useful in another batch, if they are...
