    Need Help Jumping Into This

    You can build the same system to your specs for under $800 without the pump. I want a high-quality kettle that will last. My bayou classics are already seeming to deteriorate but I have had them for maybe 7 years.

    The issue I have with brew boss is that they seem to use the same kettle as bayou classic but are charging $100 more than bayou.

    I want the 15 gallon @SpikeBrewing solo system. I'm assuming it's going to be around $1300 - $1500. I hope we find out soon.

    Need Help Jumping Into This

    I don't want the grainfather or anvil system. I am looking for something more versatile like the spike solo, ss brewtech ebiab, or the clawhammer. I don't want the clawhammer though because I want 240v. I am waiting to see price point for that Spike solo. I have been researching and...

    Need Help Jumping Into This

    I completely understand your argument, but having to clean a 10 gallon kettle, a 20 gallon mash tun, a immersion chiller, a pump, and all the other pieces throughout the brew day is way more tasking. Eliminating that mash tun and simplifying my equipment will make my brew day shorter and way...

    False bottom for EBIAB

    I am looking for a false bottom like the one from brew hardware. They are sold out. I'll post url at bottom. Does anyone know of a company that makes one like it? https://www.brewhardware.com/product_p/biabbottom15.htm

    @ILMSTMF I have made up my mind that I will be upgrade to 15 gallons. I hate to be restricted because I'm frugal. I also am getting away from my bayou classic and getting either SS brewtech or MegaPot 15 gallon and drilling it myself. My build is pretty much complete, on a spreadsheet not...

    Need Help Jumping Into This

    I apologize to take up all your time but I do appreciate it. I am looking at getting the Auber Instruments CUBE 2E. I will need the wiring and the male plug. I will only be running one pump and one heating element. Do you foresee me needing anything else? How difficult are the schematics to...

    @doug293cz have you seen the ebrewsupply diy kits? Any opinions?

    I don't want an anvil or grainfather system. I like them but they seem to be restrictive.

    Holy smokes I could not have asked for more information! I appreciate all of this! I don't know if i have the balls to build a control box from scratch. I can follow the schematics of a kit but I feel like I wouldn't get the right stuff for it. I will have to think about it! I was heavily...

    Need Help Jumping Into This

    Hello everyone! I have been brewing for 10 ish years with a full 5-gallon system (2 10 gallon kettles, cooler mash tun, and pump). So I want to make the jump over to electric brewing but I don't know the easiest route. I have read soooooooo many articles and posts and I, more or less, am looking...

    Not normally but this one has me so frustrated lol.

    Messed up from the beginning!

    So I bought a pump and this was the first time using it... My thought process was "this pump will reduce the amount of wort I have". So I added too much water. That through me off from there. First time in maybe 5 years I had a rough brew day.

    Messed up from the beginning!

    Hello everyone! Yesterday I learned a huge lesson. Don't rush and keep things simple. Yesterday I was brewing a clone of a breakfast stout that I have made maybe three other times. I rushed a d totally overthought the whole process. Used too much water, didn't use my hop bag in kettle, shut my...

    Experienced Brewer Looking for Some Advice on Recirculating.

    Experienced Brewer Looking for Some Advice on Recirculating.

    Hello Everyone, I am a 10+ year experienced brewer who recently purchased a pump for the first time. I was absolutely sick of carrying kettles and my mash tun. I also want to increase my efficiency so I will try and recirculate. However this is where the question of what to upgrade comes in...
