Any particular reason for this? If the hose barb at the fermenter is still 3/8" then the restriction on flow is the same whether the feed line is 1/2 or 3/8". And at this short of a distances, friction losses are minimal

Yeah i figured that. Its only going about 6 feet in a straight line, then making a 90 degree turn and running for another 3 or 4 feet up to the fermenters, so i'll likely run them in a 4 line trunk that 6 feet, then split them out into 2 lines for the 90 bend, and then out to single as they...

As part of my brewery renovation, I want to tuck my glycol chiller out of sight behind a wall in a utility room, which means running four 3/8" glycol lines through the wall along the floor, under my brew table, and over to my table with my fermenters. Total line run for each line will be...

Monday Bump. NO ONE out there wants to upgrade to electric?? Cmon folks :P

Bump. Including stainless table with it for an extra $50. Table alone is worth over $250

That’s them! Yeah they’re not flexible like wetsuit neoprene like you’d think of a trivet for a pot or pan. They’re more like dense foam. They work great

Hey Kal! They’re actually harbor freight anti fatigue mats. They come in packs of like 4 or 5, and they snap together. I just cut out a circle with a utility knife and they’ve worked phenomenally well for years. Easy to clean

Combination of tilt and then hydrometer to confirm. Hydrometer is calibrated

New packet of year directly from the fridge/freezer

I brewed exclusively ales and stouts the last couple years. Haven’t used any saison yeasts, or brewed any sours. 85% of the beers have been with S04 or US05, and if not those, it’s been a variation of London III such as A38, Barbarian, or Omega V Also the gravity readings are with a calibrated...

has anyone recently experienced S04 over attenuating consistently? I used to be able to count on around 75% attenuation with S04, but in the last year any time I use a pack, especially in NEIPAs, im getting well over 80% This last beer, I mashed at 154-155 (Herms electric PId controlled and...

I ended up getting anti skid foam mats from harborfreight, and just cut them to fit my kettles. I've been using them for 2 years now and they've been perfect. Easy clean up from spills, very well insulated against my stainless table, and CHEAP

Coming back to this thread as i have questions before i pull the trigger on the Spike lid for my 10 gallon kettles. Remodeling my brew area and i'd ideally like to avoid building another complicated vent system as theres a window i'd like to keep in use in that area Spike's website says water...

Every new grain mill requires some trial and error before you find your proper crush. Brew another beer and back the crush off a bit and see what your efficiency looks like. Also start recirculation slow, and keep it medium speed through the mash. Dont run the recirculation full speed. And...

A38 is Imperial's Juice Yeast. its the product code number. Its a very popular yeast for NEIPAs, as its similar to 1318 (Wyeast London III)

Sorry for the delay Recipe was pretty similar to as follows (realized i used Wai-iti not Wakatu) 5 Gallon finished batch, 6 gallons into the fermenter 10lbs Pilsner Malt 4lbs Flaked Oats 1lb Carapils 1.052 starting gravity, 1.012 final gravity (60% brewhouse efficiency based on the heavy use...

Just did a NZ hazy pale/IPA a couple weeks ago that came out good. I used Wakatu, Waimea, and Motueka for the Dryhop, and it definitely has promise, but came in a little lighter on aroma than some of the other hops i've typically used for Hazy stuff (Citra, Mosaic, Amarillo, Etc). It might be...
