I'm currently using bottled water for brewing but want to invest in (at the very least) a carbon & 1 micron filter side by side as well as a water line to draw cold water into my HLT for beginning my brew day. Looking into the future (if not right away), I'd like to easily be able to retro fit...

I'm confused on why you're seeing air bubbles during the initial move of your beer... So should filling the conical with the racking arm up and then turn down once yeast is pitched be sufficient?

This makes sense now after watching a few videos. For some reason I thought decoction and vorlauf went hand in hand but they're completely separate from each other, I'm now in the know =)

According to this article a decoction should pull off grain and just enough water so that the grain isn't scorched while boiling. If using a false bottom I'm not going to be able to pull grain from my ball valve. Seems like a silly question but can a person simply "grab" grain off the top of...

That's what I was looking for! Thank you good sir.

Right, I suppose I wasn't as specific as I could've been: I know the post with the notches and the grey connector is for gas. I'm asking if the internals being mixed up (with the liquid connections) would make a difference in how well the two connected together. I think I got the answer I'm...

Thanks, but I'm not talking about the posts, I'm referring to the plastic connections that connect to said posts. Cheers

I've read a few different threads on here detailing the fact that gas/liquid ball lock connections are not interchangeable and that you shouldn't use one for the other. That said, before kegging my Munich Helles late last week I disassembled, cleaned and sanitized both connections. I didn't pay...

What do you mean by SG readings are flaky? Is a Tilt only accurate at a certain temperature?

So I committed one of my pet peeves and used you're instead of your*. I meant if I'm using one of your panels (such as this Op is doing), are both plugs capable of being plugged into that panel, Kal?

What's the deciding factor (if using you're electric panel) when choosing 125 or 250VAC?

I think you're right. For some reason I thought that soldering/welding tri clamps and somehow fitting them with ball valves would alleviate some of my worries but it seems like one way or another there's going to be threads unless you get very technical. I haven't had many leaks but its just one...

Bringing up an old post, but what is the headache that occurs when not using the center inlet pump?

Bump.

I ordered the red tubing from Amazon. It's walls are double in thickness and seems to be much better for support in my application. Thanks all for the advice.

My current HERMS setup has ~10 different ports that are all threaded. Several ball valves have quick connects attached to them but replacing washers/o-rings is annoying and testing/hoping that they don't leak in the middle of a session has made me consider going to a welded tri-clamp route. I...

I wanted to make sure before I made the hole in my keezer larger. I’ll look for the thicker wall tubing. Thanks for the confirmation

Lady at the homebrew shop said the smaller tubing in the photo would work fine for my primary regulator valve. I set my primary at 40-50 PSI. This tubing isn’t very thick but it’s what she recommended and my run is very short so it was less than $3. I could find out myself if it’ll work in...

I'm not sure what that means, can you post a picture if you're referring to something that I could look into to make adjustments on mine if the single red washer doesn't work?
