Hey it'll be beer and you never know what the end results will be untill you taste it. Many good berws were made because of mistakes. Expect the worst, hope for the best. :mug:

Thanks Inkleg looking forward to many more. :ban:

Sillbeer just remember to get all volumes before you start your brewing (it helps to make sure they are correct to). Although I made mistakes I love this system, I think I got a new girlfriend (she makes me beer).:ban:

Did my first brew today. I'm a very satisfied man with this new system. although it did take me longer to complete my brew, I must say that's all on me. Not a proper calculation of strike water made my boil time increase to get close to my OG. The EBC-SV controller held my strike temp. at + - 1...

I must be missing something in the OP you said it was to be a 2.75 batch you without running the figures myself it seems that you top off water should have been somewhere around 3.75 with a boil-off of around about 1 gal. which would put you at where you wanted to be.(JIMHO) But I could be...

I don't understand ? How did you get 3.5 gal. if you put 3 gal. in for mash. Something is not right Lucy.:confused: Did you put all that sparge water in? If so I can understand why you are over your post boil volume. Only sparge with that amount you need to reach your pre-boil volume.

Got my 120v system from High Gravity Monday and did a quick set-up test after putting it together. Once I drained the water off as if I was transferring wort I did a measurement of kettle loss which came out to .6 gal. when I set up the software I'll include this number to it to insure I meet my...

Dang! I love it when a plan comes together.

storing grains I would line my buckets with heavy duty plastic bags with ties to help with air seal. the bucket lid would detour any critters that tries to get in. JMHO

I plan on ordering your bags, I have a basket inside my eBIAB system do I measure the basket or the kettle when I order? Thanks

One of the function settings should be for time out for the fridge to reset. I've set mine at 5 min. but to each their own.

Many buy small heaters with fans on Amazon and plug into the heat side of controller this will move the heat and only turn on when needed.

I got my 120v EBC-SV system yesterday and started setting it up. Man this thing is so COOL. One change I see that Dave has done is take the temp. probe from the top of the inlet of the kettle and located it between the coils of the element. It dose seem to help on the temp control once up to...

Mine is plugged into the controller no by-pass, works fine. set thermostat to full cold and let the STC-1000 do the controlling.

You got that right. So many brews so little time! Oh wait; this is going to same me some time.:ban:

My understanding is to use a brewing software and figure in loss to kettle trub to get your fermenter size down, loss to kettle won't matter.

I just bought a 120v system I'll pick up in a couple of weeks. Recommend you to check out various post on the system on here. If not good enough go to TheScewyBrewer.com and look at getting started to the right the ultimate BIAB brew day, nice write up.

AS stated on other posts I was going to buy me a this http://www.highgravitybrew.com/store/pc/BIAB-Electric-Brewing-System-120V-269p4647.htm BIAB system at the end of this month. Well I went in and awaiting for this to be ready for pick up. Can't wait to start brewing with it.
