How are you guys keeping the lid on? I know one had a brewha which has a clamp for the pid. I would think without that you'd have the lid trying to come off from the counterweight that's now hanging off the side. I have some ideas, but wondering what you guys have found.

Being sure in my mind involves a lab, so no. I didn't find Starbucks to be a very reliable source. Checking their facts in my app just now: 16oz Nitro: 200mg Nitro with splash of sweet cream: 325 Narino: 200 Narino with milk: 200mg As you can see, not too reliable. I'm particularly...

I did the same, but you need to factor in that the cold brew is a concentrate (normally people mix with milk). Thus the mg/l of caffeine is higher. Using average cold brew contrate numbers (keeping in mind results at the individual level can vary widely), I'm putting around 1000 mg of caffeine...

Yes, if you're sensitive to caffeine this recipe will cause issues. I'd recommend to get the best beans you can, in decaf. I'm sensitive somewhat as well. Can't drink anything with caffeine after about 11 am, otherwise I'm up all night. One of these beers has the same effect.

Whirlpool only. 2 oz of each.

Just tasted my FG sample (1318 @1.016 from 1.067 15 days). Delicious. Very fruity and juicy. The smell is amazing. This was using citra, mosaic, galaxy @ 3/2/1 all at day 3. Can't wait til it's ready in the keg. Thanks @Braufessor.

My understanding is that is at pressure (40 I believe...). I'd have no concerns about using schedule 40 as part of the downstream portion past the sprayer and T personally.

He's getting condensation during mash. You'll need a lid that fits. There's tons in different diameters on Amazon or eBay. This'll help tremendously with heat retention as well.

Ah, ya, the lids have no seals on those. For some reason when I was using them, I'd have some batches that would bubble, others not. I assume it was just pick of getting the lid oriented for its best seal. Never had a batch affected by it, just got a couple big mouth bubblers I use now. They'd...

Kettle didn't come with a lid? You'll need a lid that drops down into the kettle a little before resting in the lip of the kettle. (forming a drip edge, directing condensation back to the mash) Any lid that comes with a kettle should have that. The weight of an actual lid will help too.

Assuming you're talking about the airlock, and assuming your talking high Krausen (day 2 or 3). If so and you have Krausen but no bubbles, I'd say you have an air leak somewhere. If using a bucket, then that's pretty normal. If using something else, check your connections, if it's bothering you.

Are you leaving the lid off for mash? You really shouldn't get much steam if the lid is on (which it should be). That said, I'll be putting together mine for BIAB first week of January, so I'll know then. I plan to put the tc port in the lid so I can use it for RIMS and as a condenser.

When I was poking around last night, I'd only found either a tee with equal lengths like you guys have or a rims tube like brewers hardware or brewhardware has, but those only had 1/2 inlets (bumped at the connection end to 1.5 TC). I was curious about his as it had all 1.5 inch with an offset...

From what I've read, that's correct for just about any yeast I know of. Essentially, the idea is to get it while it still has some points left. My understanding is that helps scrub any o2 released by the dry hop. Note: 3 days to me is really "as soon as the kraussen starts dropping". Before then...

I would be fairly confident that a longer down tube will help, but I also believe the results will be negligible. Can probably get away with a lower volume sprayer, but to me, that's a moot point. Within the thread, they're between a 6 and a 9gph, I'm not overly concerned about 3-5 gallons...

Maybe I missed this, but are you using 1.5 or 2" tc for the port out of the kettle? Looking at the comments, it appears 1.5, just wondering. I may look into doing this on mine. I know the results aren't in conclusively, but I can't imagine any difference with this vs. a standard boil for dms...

Personally, I'd just buy another keg, a 2.5 gallon sounds like it may work (and if you add a mini co2 system like with chargers they're great for taking to parties). With that said, I don't think they'll be a problem provided you can keep oxygen out during the transfer. If you force/burst Carb...

Your losing 4 gallons to trub?

Nope, sorry, I misread the screen shot earlier. 65% would work.
