Wow nice chart. I will save this to refer to often. I guess its hard to guess what recipe we are doing as we haven't chosen one yet. We are just in the process of building our mash tun. I was asking these questions and to try eliminate making a mash tun twice. I was hoping I could get one...

Ok so I have obviously looked at this chart http://https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f11/how-big-your-mash-tun-needs-123585/ And have come to the conclusion that is if I would want to make a 10 gallon batch of "Barleywine" I would need to have a 52 Quart cooler as a 40 quart would not cut it. AM i...

Thanks for clearing that up. My post made me sound very uneducated. That'sexac tly what I meant to say! Thanks again

Yeah I've read into BIAB a little bit and it sounds nice.. But I think I want to move to All grain set up.. Now to figure out if I go small with just a Mash tun or big with a 3 keggle setup.

Ok. So me and my 2 other brewing buddies have decided to move to ALL Grain. I will list the equipment we have now and then ask my questions. 2x 6.5 gallon Glass carboys 2x 5 Gallon Glass Carboys 1x 6.5 Gallon Bucket(for bottling or fermenting) 3x 15.5 Gallon Kegs 1x 50' Wort Chiller 1x...

Where does it cost 20$ to send to Ward labs. I looked on the site and it cost 36$??

So I am looking to move to All grain. So I am looking to build a Mash tun. Right Now I brew 5 Gallon Extract batches in a 15 gal keg. So I have room to do 10 gallon batches but haven't yet. Also all my beers have beer IPA's or Pal ale's. No big beers In the Article below it looks like...

All right so I am moving to all grain and I am in the process of getting ready to build my mash tun. Well I have used a couple different thermometers for extract brewing and have gotten by but I know all grain you need to be alittle more precise on temps. Every thread I read says THERMAPEN...

Below Are two water reports for my water in my area. http://http://www.amwater.com/twq/muncie_twq.pdf http://http://www.amwater.com/ccr/muncie.pdf Referencing John Palmer How to Brew book.(Specifically Page 161-162) On the chapter understanding the Mash PH it looks like you need to...

Alright so I have a 50' wort chiller I made last year. I live in Indiana and the water temp is usually between 60-70 degrees. Today it is 37 degrees outside and the water temp is 60 degrees. I haven't brewed when the water Is at 60 yet but when we do brew at 65-70 degree water it takes my...

Thanks for all the advice so far. I got a lot of Questions answered but one I don't feel like was answered was this one. OK. So if I decide to transfer I should wait till the beer has reached final gravity correct?? Now if that is the case. How do I keep testing the beer throughout its...

Alright, I have done some research on here and the world wide web and I am astounded by the multitude of answers for these 2 questions and why there isn't a clear cut answer. I guess it may be b/c it depends on how much money or equipment or time someone has and that is why you get the varied...

Makes Sense. thanks so much. I will be on the lookout for 2 5 gallon pots! Thanks

So just to clarify.. All I need is a cooler to turn into a mash turn to go to all grain correct? I don't need a second pot for sparge water? Do I need to add a false bottom to the mash turn or get a second cooler as a lauter tun? Also are the orange round coolers or the long...

Thanks for the advice. Just to clarify. this is what I need ? http://www.bargainfittings.com/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=96 I will need other fittings to fasten it to the cooler correct? or does it come with the fittings? I am also thinking of buying a ball valve...

Awesome Article. Thanks so much for the post!

I already Have the Book "How to Brew" but I think I will pick it back up and read some of it again as I only read the first few chapters to get me started on my first few batches. I have 2 thermometers. They never read the same temp. Only off 2-5 degress. Do you have any recommendations...

Do you have any recommendations for a good waterproof thermometer besides a thermapen?

I already have this book. just haven't taken the time to read it. I will get it down from the book shelf and get on it. Thanks for the recommendation.
