Very nice write-up. Love seeing homebrewer create their own devices. It appears you enoy this, which is most important, so this isn't meant to critisize. Oxygenation is definitely real, but I believe you don't experience it since you are only tapping 2 litres at a time. I'm betting it doesn't...

Was throwing a going away thing for a beer buddy of mine and wanted to fill my fourth tap with something with lower gravity. Ended up brewing a Hefeweizen and had it on tap in 8 days. Everyone swore it was perfect and this is coming from guys who have all spent time in Germany. Used the Mangrove...

In please. Thanks awesome sponsors.

Absolutely an awesome DIY. Would love to see the final product.

Sounds awesome, but I'll be in Belgium on a three day beer run this weekend. Good luck with the event!

In like Flynn!

This talk of leaks just had me checking all my connections with starsan. You can see how huge my tank is, should last over a year even with excessive purging; however, I recently had to replace it after about two months because there was two very slow leaks on the regulator. Tore it apart and...

Hey all. Life has been incredibly busy. Going through a lot of changes at work and the government shut down made it fifty times as painful. Been staying off here to avoid getting new ideas to spend money on. As for kegging here: I get my CO2 from http://www.angliagascentre.co.uk/. Costs about...

I wouldn't want fiberglass insulation around my beer. Seems like a bad idea. Why do you want to go that direction with the insulation?

Once a month sounds great, but it's tough to say what works for us. We work 4 days every 4 days alternating between nights and days. I'm just as willing to host also. For the next couple weeks, we have off weekends. We've both been brewing fools lately after not brewing for a while. My keg...

Use something else to bitter. IMO, bittering with Citra was the mistake with my latest batch. First time I have ever got that cat pee smell from this beer.

Cool, signed up. Told my co-worker about it also. I suggest a Saturday or Sunday which probably works better for most people. Currently work weekends, but will have the last weekend of this month and first weekend of next month mostly free.

I have hundreds of bottles also if you need some, but I'm a bit far from you. I may be taking a Taco Bell trip this week out that ways and could always bring some. cpl, I like the idea of starting a brew club. I've attempted here, but although we have quite a few home brewers around, it just...

Cool, unfortunately we work a shift schedule and will be working all weekend. He (Mike) brewed a coconut porter yesterday. I (also Mike) planned to do a fresh hop harvest ale with my cascades yesterday, but with finding a place to fill my propane tanks and bottling a pumpkin ale there was no...

Greetings, Just found this section of the forums. I'm an American home brewer living between Cambridge and Peterborough. Both my co-worker and I have been brewing since end-2012. Both mostly AG. I just got my kegs up and running.

I just kegged an all Citra IPA which was based off this recipe. The pour smelled and tasted just as you described. I was also thinking it had to do with the age of the hops. Glad to see there is hope this will get better with age. It's the third time I've brewed it and the previous two were...

No worries, they are there. On mine its just one hole per divider in the same locations as the original. Just not as close to the edge since its styrofoam. It's been about 70-75 in the house. Inside the chamber its been 61 with the fermenting wort at 65 for over 60 hours. Temperature of the wort...

Here is the original design for a reference: http://www.wortomatic.com/articles/38DD-Mother-of-a-Fermentation-Chiller The holes almost match the original design. Just to test it, I turned it down all the way and it ran for about 5 hours before hitting 50 degrees Fahrenheit.

Just wanted to share this variation of the "Wortomatic" Mother of Fermentation chamber I built a couple days ago. How this differs from the original: -Bigger, it can accommodate two 7 Imperial gallon buckets along with 2 1-gallon carboys for blow off. It also has the clearance for the...
