Really,i searched and did not find any threads on it.Wish i had.

I started building the electric keggle tonight.I did not want to pat for weldless fittings so i yhink i came up with an installation solution.I bought the elements and cut holes with a hole saw,but the sizes do not match perfectly so i had to take some material off with a carbide burr grinder.My...

The reason I'm doing it this way is to save money on the parts to do it.Now that i have the elements my electrician freind has all the other stuff laying around.I Don't need automated temp control so cheap rheostats should work just fine.

Ok,Thanks guys.I'm going to install two 2000w elements and run them each through rheostat.do i need to use low watt density elements or will just any i find at home depot work?

I'm looking to convert my bk to electric cheap.Would two 120v 1500w elements boil around 7 gallons?With them both on switches would i be able to turn one off once the boil starts?

Ok,Thanks guys.I will take all this in to consideration and see what i come up with.

Should i change the Amarillo hops to something else?

I decided to try all grain after four extract batches,i bought Beersmith tonight and think i may have pieced together an Ipa recipe.From looking at other Ipa recipes this is what i came up with.I'm not sure if I'm going to batch sparge or fly sparge yet,leaning towards fly so far.I have one...

I use cheap vodka in my airlocks,leaned that here not too long ago.

Thanks Guys,that thread was what i was looking for.

I have brewed four extract batches so far,only drin king one now though.The others are still fermenting/conditioning.I know I'm going to brw at least once a week and want to cut my cost down.Is it really that much cheaper?How long will malt last in storage?I would like to buy in bulk but would...

I drank some of my Honey porter while brewing tonight.I always drink while brewing.The first batch i made came out great,but i woke up with a huge mess and the carboy bubbling away on my kitchen floor exposed to light.I was pretty tore up that night.I have had a little more restraint for the...

I did my first brew(Full boil)about a month ago,and had no problems with some grains and hops.I just planned well and turned out good beer i think.If i were you,I'd go with the kit from Nb. Tubing can be found at hardware stores,Lowe's/Home depot.

That pic was mistakenly posted here thought to be mine,it is not.

I used Trappist High Gravity Wyeast W3787

The pic you posted is not mine.That's why i was wondering.

Well i agree with you on Rachel Ray,She sucks. What do you mean by your last post with that pic?

Thanks,it goes away quick,not sure why.But hell,It's my first beer. Thanks! It was 1.054. Ah,Ok.Why. I use that Ir thermometer for everything,fermentation temps,snake cages,for work.I love these things.The bottle next to the Star oil is a Basil infused dipping oil i hate.It was a...

So far i have had excellent results brewing for just over a month.I'm drinking a honey porter that i kegged,and bottled a twelve pack of it to sit around for a while to do taste tests at different times.I have a brown ale almost ready to bottle/keg.I have a Belgian Ale fermenting now and am...
