These burners are great. I now have build and use three sets (two doubles and one single). They are really simple. As for bolt together brew stands, that is how I built mine. It is rock solid and adjustable. I have changed it up a couple times with time being the only cost.

I also have changed the name to "Bolshevik Beatnik Baltic Porter"

A few adjustments on the recipe I posted yesterday thanks to the gracious advice from the Pope: Sputnik 12-C Baltic Porter Size: 18 gal Efficiency: 75.0% Attenuation: 78.0% Calories: 253.59 kcal per 12.0 fl oz Original Gravity: 1.076 (1.060 - 1.090)...

They have common roots but are really pretty different at this point. The porter is drier/more attenuated and cleaner, with as much as a third less IBUs. Think of an Imperial cross between a brown porter and a schwartzbier and you get some idea of a Baltic Porter. Lager fermentation, none or...

So, what ever happened with that keg?

I got mine on ebay. Otherwise it will be crazy expensive I suspect.

Great information. Thanks. I thought I remembered that the ran the beer through the torpedo very slowly, so the 3 pass thing makes sense.

I have a homemade torpedo devised for dry hopping like SN. It is an inline dairy filter. It is a try-clover canister with screen filters inside, you probably have seen them around. It is about 18" long and 5" wide. Beer goes in one end and out the other, passing through the filter chamber on the...

What was your OG? My plan is to mash LOW and attenuate high. *Yeast pee - that is good. How about yeast farts?

No thoughts or comments? Well, I will tell you how it all works out. Maybe!:D

OK land honey how did it turn out?

Any further thoughts on this brew? How did the GU/BU balance end up? How did it age? Any changes you would make?

I did not specify the yeast because I haven't settled on that. I hope to simply use yeast from one of the local micros and make it easy on myself.

Another recipe in the works... I want to try the new Delta Leaf hops. I also want to try my new hop screen in combination with my whirlpool chiller as an in-kettle hopback. Further, I want to try a new idea I have for a home hop torpedo (such as SN created). So I am looking for balanced...

Never mind, I see you are making BMC. So how many flushes does it take to fill your fermenter?

I have lost track of your progress. Great to see all you have gotten done! Great sign. Do you make any beer? :D

What he said... I would advise working hard on fermentation before you get too busy with water treatment. When fermentation temperatures are controlled you can then move to water and other secondary interests. Just my 2 cents.

Oh man! I will have to send my nephew, he lives in Lincoln Park. That RIS sound mighty fine!
