Yeah, you like that thermometer?! That was an awesome ebay find. Got it for $40 shipped. It's a Weksler 5" dial and it can be tilted (I didn't know that when bidding on it.)

Cool, thanks! I've got a little write-up on my brew stand here with some more close-ups of the corners and bolt positions. I also posted some detailed pictures of my keg to mash tun conversion. (I love my mash tun!) It looks a little different now... The picture below is pretty accurate...

Hi guys, I'm looking to buy 2 VIP session tickets (noon to 4pm) to the Beer, Bourbon and BBQ festival in NYC on Jan. 30th. Thanks! Sam

Nice Brewme, it sure makes things easier... I actually don't mind cleaning kegs/carboys now that I've built my own washer. I had the same problem until I changed the nozzle from 3/4" PVC to 1/2" copper. Now I can let the pump run and the carboy doesn't fill up because there's more room for...

Thanks guys! I was a little nervous... sorry for all the uh's and um's. Like I said in the interview, I've only used this technique once but it worked very well. If you look at my comments on the video's page, you'll see Jamil Z. did this too but hooked up his CO2 tank to the fermenter's cap...

Here's an updated pic with the burners plumbed out. I've got 3 batches through her so far. No rust yet but the zinc plating has burned off. Apparently, when that zinc plating gets hot it gives off some nasty fumes. Keep well ventilated. Once the plating is burned off it should be safe. I...

Ha! I was wondering if someone would notice that. I've been lurking here for quite some time, huh?! I've gotten tons of info from you guys over the years and really appreciate it. Sorry I haven't contributed much but I've been busy soaking up all the info. Yes, they're banjo burners. No...

Thought I'd share... The stand was built with perforated angle iron (McMaster calls them "steel slotted angles"). I've got a McMaster warehouse less than 5 miles from the house so I picked everything up at Will Call. Here are the McMaster part numbers... 8968K26 2 Each 1-1/2" X 1-1/2"...
