@ClaudiusB So, all the terminals look clean. Question about the jumper wire though. If I'm understanding correctly there's already a wire between the two points you want me to put the jumper. Did you mean bottom black PID to bottom black button wire where power comes into the switch? I assume...

D'oh. Missed that second part. I'll try that and get back to you sometime this weekend.

Yes, it just doesn't show well in the picture.

The E-stop? Yeah, it trips the spa panel breaker at the wall. I used this thing for several years without issue, and even fired it up once I had the 240 service installed at my new house, and everything turned on as it should at that time. The box has sat in the basement untouched for...

Auber! Of course! And there's an updated PID with wifi connectivity! While my original question still stands, ooooo wifi...

I'm finally getting back to brewing after nearly six years, so I'm putting everything back together. I plugged in the control panel, pushed all the buttons (the pump works!), but the PID will not turn on. I opened the box and checked all the connections, and they're all secure, no apparent...

I guess I failed to mention that I'm on my second air conditioner. Because I tried to do that with the first one. I think I'll go with the Plastic Bonder/WaterWeld combo. Thanks, and wish me luck!

Thanks, BMB! I've used WaterWeld before. Hated it, but it worked, so I was kinda leaning that way. They also have a "Plastic Bonder," which they say can bond plastic to metal, so I'm wondering if I should do a 2-part solution, Plastic Bonder at the places the coil lines touch the cooler, then...

I've been out of the game for a while (new house, new kid, etc.) and am getting ready to jump back in, but I want a glycol chiller up and running before I start. I'm going to put the coil from a cheap air conditioner into a chest cooler, but I need a way to seal the resulting holes in the...

I haven’t brewed in a few years (comin’ back, baby!) but my last couple beers used Hothead kveik. I made an English/American hybrid barleywine that hit about 10.5% ABV, finished fermenting in one week, grain-to-glass in about 2 weeks, though it tasted better at 3-4 weeks. The best barleywine...

I usually brew 5-6 gallons, but occasionally make multiple batches of a brew I really like just to have available.

I'd like to try this.

Love these giveaways! Thanks, Inkbird!

I'm game! Let's do this!

Fiddle faddle!

The berry and melon can be subtle. I usually use Belma for bittering, in combination with other things, or in small beers. I did a very nice session saison with Belma and Styrian Goldings a few years ago that I keep coming back to.

I tried both spouts today. No video because there's no real difference in pour, but the angled spout doesn't give the liquid anything to hold onto resulting in less dripping after the pour.

I tore the faucets apart today for a much-needed OxiClean soak. I couldn't get the flow control portion off, and I'm really not sure if/how they come off. Fortunately I found a shank that'll work: the Intertap/Nukatap Tower Shank is basically hollow and fits the flow control shuttle perfectly...

Thanks for that!

It looks like two parts, but if you take off the flow control part it doesn't look like the threads would fit a beer shank. I need to take a little time and tear one down.
