    Need Advise - 1st Closed Transfer

    Not really .. and the scale in the chest freezer would not be very practical i think.. but thanks for the thoughts .

    Need Advise - 1st Closed Transfer

    Thanks --- that is one line of sight into the transfer I did not really consider. All the videos seem to bypass some of the real life views into a freezer transfer.

    Need Advise - 1st Closed Transfer

    I've just brewed my first batch in a new All Rounder, Cold Crashing now, and will be doing my first closed transfer. I am also doing my first cold crash and the combination of the All Rounder, Cold Crash, and transfer leaves me with questions. The fermenter sits in my chest freezer, and with...

    How much PBW do you use to soak a 5 gallon Carboy?

    None…with the same active ingredient Oxi Clean “Free” does the job just as well for a fraction of the costs. Both are primarily “Percarbonate” cleaners…the Oxi Free has no fragrances etc that the laundry version has.

    What is your home brewery's name?

    I need to work on logo (one of my sons has pics of our 2 dogs on their backs looking drunk but hard to do as logo). Named the brewery of course after our 2 adopted rescue hounds. Drunk Dog Brewing!

    Irish Red Ale Homebrewdad's Big Irish Red

    See earlier comment - I finally got around to brewing this today. I'm going to use as the base to try and recreate a "Ginja Ninja" from Black Hog Brewing in Oxford CT. I can in slightly under on OG (see pic - 1.062) but close enough (BIAB - actually did not do a hard squeeze as I had volume i...

    Irish Red Ale Homebrewdad's Big Irish Red

    So i'm pretty new to home brewing (2 extract and then upgraded and have 4 BIAB under my belt). I've been tweaking a NEIPA and to my taste have a pretty good last few batches. I want to try and mimic a brew I really enjoyed at a local brewery before they changed and then dropped the recipe. This...

    Which BIAB do you like?

    What are you using in the photo for insulation? I have a "blanket warp" I put together that I bungee cord to my kettle - but I need to be very careful if i decide to add some heat (and it is quite bulky). It works well to hold temp even in the winter cold brewing outside garage - but wondering...

    New post a picture of your pint

    Pretty new brewer here (3rd BIAB batch after 2 extract brews). My NEIPA (12 pounds 2-row, 2.5 each of wheat malt and flaked oats). Only 20 min hop stand (no boil additions) and the dry hop in primary followed by another dry hop in secondary….Citra, Mosaic, and Nelson as the dry hops). I like...

    BIAB basket size

    I don't use a strainer, but I do like using an old brew bucket with holes drilled throughout the bottom and several inches up the sides. I use my ratching hoist to raise the bag a bit fot the first run-off into the kettle (a minute or so) and then raise and lower the bag into my bucket which I...

    Hisense mini-fridge kegerator?

    Did you ever get this unit? I have one in use (Tap thru front door) - it holds 1 Corny and the 5 pound CO2 with tegulator but i want to get a 20 pound tank and keep CO2 outside. Tried Hisense support but no answers - wondering if I can drill the side (bottom half on the side with Temp Controls)...

    Hisense mini-fridge kegerator?

    I recently purchased for the same use case. It fits only 1 Corny Keg (Pepsi - Ball Lock) but I can also keep the 5 pound CO2 tank and regulator in the unit. I don't see any way it would fit 2 5 gallon kegs (even if the door racks were removed. I can't insert picture directly in the reply or I...
