    Is SS Brewtech going to release an EBIAB electric system?

    I don't know if I like that or not actually now that I look at it. It looks like the temperature probe and heating element are a single unit so you need to replace the whole thing if one component goes out. I also don't like that they dont include a pump at that price. With a PID and a 5500...

    Is SS Brewtech going to release an EBIAB electric system?

    Agreed, looks lower profile than the Blichmann one and higher Watts.

    Looking for budget friendly RIMs setup

    This RIMS tube with element from NorCal seems like a pretty good option as far as pre-made goes https://www.norcalbrewingsolutions.com/store/product2239.html

    22mm 3-Position Operator: OFF / A / A+B Source?

    You can do the same thing if you run a jumper from A to B so that A position only runs A, and B position runs A and B

    Boil kettle condenser - no overhead ventilation needed

    lol, that was my suggestion earlier. Didnt think anyone would actually consider it!

    Boil kettle condenser - no overhead ventilation needed

    Yeah, you really don't need any extra ventilation with the condenser. You only get a little puff of steam when you take the lid off for hop additions and stuff.

    Equalizing Pump Flow

    My reference to a 20 gallon kettle was in response to Bobby's comment about single vessel brewing.

    Equalizing Pump Flow

    Regarding the autosparge, I closed the valve manually and the wort was still flying by. What do you mean by 25% less efficient? I've only brewed twice on it so far but I'm overshooting my estimated 75% brewhouse efficiency. I went with this setup for flexibility, I can easily do 10 gallon...

    My new EHERMS Apartment brew, and a couple questions.

    You can remove the plastic molding on the door that makes the shelves. You might have to cut back a little bit of insulation but then you can fasten a Ridgid flat sheet of plastic to the inside of the door and you should be able to fit your bucket in there no problem. That would also make it...

    What kind of pump are you using?

    Blichmann autosparge

    Still looking to buy one of these?

    Boil kettle condenser - no overhead ventilation needed

    The Brew-Boss unit comes like this and apparently it works for them. I bought one a while back, but I just removed it and went with a trip clamp, but I think there's Hope for it.

    Equalizing Pump Flow

    My system is a no-sparge. The mash is constantly recirculated between the mash Tun with the temp probe on the outlet and the boil kettle where the heating element is, hence Kettle-RIMS. In this case equalizing the flow is pretty important or else you end up with a dry/thick mash or a dry...

    Equalizing Pump Flow

    That's exactly the issue, it leaks by like a siv. I got the system from High Gravity and the intent is that the autosparge regulates the BK to MT flow so you should only need to regulate the MT to BK but that appears to be fantasy

    Massachusetts 10 gallon Propane AG Keggle System

    Thanks for the heads up. Starting price is $800. Willing to work with people.

    Equalizing Pump Flow

    It’s a kettle RIMS so it’s a full volume mash split between the MLT and BK and the two pumps recirculating the brewing liquor. It’s like a single tier breweasy system with an additional pump instead of a gravity feed

    Equalizing Pump Flow

    I’ve brewed a couple times now on my 2 vessel system (K-RIMS) and I’m really struggling to equalize the flow rates between my two pumps. Both pumps are Riptides, the mash tun has an Autosparge on the inlet that frankly I’m not loving. I can get the pumps pretty close in flow where the levels...
