1. im trying to buy it on northern brewer, how about this one Bayou Cooker (Burner and Stand) - Burners - Equipment - Brewing : Northern Brewer
2. if im doing the brew in a bag method, do i need two burners(oen for sparge and one for strike)?
has anyone done a 15gal batch? i want to put this in a sanke keg and so it would be easiest for me to brew 15 gallons at a time
what amounts for each ingredient should i use?
using a turkey burner, could i do the bag method of all grain on 15 gallon batch sizes? i would like to be able to fill a sanke keg on one boil if possible
grain is about 15 bucks cheaper online in bulk but shipping kills that savings. is there any website good for buying bulk? so far all the ones have bulk grains excluded from thier flat rate
i have read that both ball and pin lock are similar and one isnt alot better than the other, but why then would the pin lock be 35$ vs 50$ for the ball lock on kegconnection?
what extra tools are required for all grain? im pretty handy, so hopefully i could make them, since money is my main concern i cant afford 30-40 a batch, i could only homebrew if it was 10-15 a batch.
oh and just to make sure im about on right track, for a basic beer, how much money per 5gal batch is about right for a full extract, a partial mash, and a full grain. trying to find out cost per beer roughly
this is a very noob question, but the full extract cost would be like 30-40 bucks for me (3lb of extract is like 14 bucks at my lhbs), the partial mash mentioned above still has 6lb of extract syrup, any way to cut that down more?
im brewing on a super budget
so just to sum all this up, 14 days in the primary, then rack it to the keg which i will force carb with a pressure based on temp. Once in my kegerator, make sure my hoses from keg to tap are 10 ft long.
ive been saving one bottle from all the different beers ive tried and wanted to make some sort of art/mural for my wall. anyone done anything like this or have any ideas? id rather something more interesting than a bookshelf of different beer bottles
ok perfect. also do i have to keep the co2 tank in the mini fridge? it would be easier for me to have it attached to the back of the minifridge on the outside
also would putting a hydrometer in boiling water break it? knowing carboys break got me thinking
so ten foot lines, check
another random question. i know now (didnt know for my previous brews) that cleaning isnt the same as sanatizing. So i need to find a cleaner and clean EVERYTHING? including racking canes and hydrometer and everything? and then startsan it?
so during those two weeks what temp do i want the water in the tub that the carboy is sitting in at? so i can keep adding frozen water bottles to make that temp
and the kit im ordering has hoses, should i buy longer hoses or just use the ones it has
