    Transitioning to kegging

    I'd go with the 20lb tank. My 5lb cost $20 to refill and my 20lb costs $30. It would be $80 to get 20lbs form my 5lb. It kind of seamed silly to me not to get the 20lb tank.

    Inexpensive Gram Scale

    I have this one http://www.ebay.com/itm/271968187888?_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT it works good only off .03g with my 100g weight. I'd calibrate but I need another 100g weight. How can you beat sub $4, just have to wait a month to get here from china.

    Homebrewing saved me over $1000 in 2015!

    Think of how much money you would have if you were paid for every hour you were alive. The guys that count their labor as a cost in home brewing must be insanely wealthy.

    I'm right by Niagara Falls and brew in a detached unheated garage,brewed last year outside. This year has been pretty good so far. I plan on brewing Sunday they are calling for a high of 12. Set up by a window so you can watch it from inside and bring everything to kitchen to wash. I throw some...

    Recipes for pineapple beer?

    I made a pineapple heffe. It was really good, just hints of pineapple. Just took a heffe recipe and after 2 weeks added 3-4 pineapples, sliced into 1/2" disks, into fermenter. Let it sit for another 2 weeks. I'm going to make again it was super yummy.

    Recommendations On Finding A Spot to Brew

    Just take over the basement, or take over/ build a shed. I brew year round in my detached unheated garage in Ny, ferment in there also.

    Upright Freezer or DIY Glycol for Texas Heat??

    I would think if you add insulation around it there should be no reason glycol wouldn't work. Whats the diffrence between that and winter camping, you can be comfortable in sub-zero temps with the right gear. I could see the sweating being an issue though.

    New construction Sink Rough-in question

    I'd recommend stainless. I purchased a single bay never used one on Craigslist for $100. If I were to do it again I'd get a 3 bay so I could have cleaner in one sanitizer in one and one still open for a sink. But the hookup to the house is the same, one hot, one cold and a drain.

    Facelift for my control panel

    Thanks for the link. Do you use a submersible pump in your system or does your gylcol system contain one. I'm just wondering what gph I should get for 4 fermenters.
