    Batch Sparging: what's your setup like?

    If you're referring to my setup, I can do batches of ,up to 19 pounds of grain. I do a lot of overnight mashes. At whatever temp i mash in at, it will hold Indefinitely.

    Batch Sparging: what's your setup like?

    I mash and sparg from the same equipment...an old commercial coffee urn. I put a digital temp controller on it and it will hold whatever temp i want for as long as i want it to. I sparg from the sprayer that was used to brew coffee. I also have it set up as a RIM system, works like a charm.

    Another Overnight mashing question

    I use a digitalized temp controlled commercial coffee urn to mash in. I can set it to any temp and it will hold at that temp perfectly for as long as I want. I'm thinking about trying an overnight mash, just to see how it would work. I have two questions that I would like to hear your opinion...

    Commercial Coffee Brewer R.I.M.System

    Ebay is your best bet in finding them. Every city has a used restaurant equipment company, work a deal with them. Most of these units are sitting around.

    just brewed the midwest supplies pumpkin ale

    I’m trying it this week with I can of pumpkin, roasted with brown sugar in the mash. In the primary, I’m going to dump three jars of Dickinson (brand) Pumpkin butter, and in the secondary I’m going to put 4 cinnamon sticks and 2 vanilla beans split. I have high hopes.

    Flat Red Irish ale bottles

    I’ve read from others that they have had problems with the Wyeast 1084 yeast. I made a 5 gal. batch of red Irish ale. Primed it with 5oz sugar, like I always do. Conditioned it at room (68 degrees) for exactly 2 weeks, and it is mostly flat. Is this too short of time for this yeast? Would...

    Can I ferment completely closed in corny keg under pressure?

    A couple of questions on the cornys…. How did you get the hole where the relief valve was? What did you use? Do you think it would be possible or would it make sense have a valve welded on the bottom to be able to dump the trub like a Conical Fermentor?
