The work hardening happens very fast. The heat buildup is what happens as a result of hardening when the drill bit spins an kind of mushes the metal around instead of cutting it.This can be in one revolution of the bit. If you catch it fast enough you can change bits and drill through a little...

Not likely. There are all kinds of requirements for the distillng site alone that would rule out a creek bottom right away.

Hate the fake drama in these shows. Would much prefer a standard documentary format. Notice how he was careful not to add all the ingredients to the fermenter. So he hasn't made a mash yet. I will be interested to see how they handle the actual run of the still.

The beer is providing the pressure. Purge the keg with the pressure set low and it will creep up to the carb level of the beer. Purge a few times to lower the carb level. My regulator will creep up 2 or three psi. I just set it to account for this.

I figured I would have to backsweeten it. I just expected it to be done way before now. Thanks for the reply

It just keeps going. I had a gallon of cider that noone was drinking so i decided to pitch some yeast in it and see what happens. It was only about 1.040 on my refracrometer so i added a loose cup of brown sugar witch brought it up to about 1.054. and a put it in a glass jug with an airlock. I...

I bought everything over an extended period of time. So i may be forgetting something but i think I got it all for around 150. A warning. Be carefull ordering the pot from newark. The one i received didnt match the picture. There wasn't enough post sticking out to mount a knob to. It was ment...

That looks like it would do the trick nicely. I just took a psr25 and an outdoor aluminum gangbox and mounted the psr25 to the side. I sanded the paint off the inside where the ssr mounted and the outside where i mounted an old cpu heatsink. I put the pot and a switch in a blank cover. I want...

Thats what i built. Mine was about 150 cheaper and uses a welder plug. I love electric. Hated all that wasted heat with propane.

These aren't electric stove controls the op just wants it to act like one.

I just converted my keggle to electric using this ssr. Its got a control circuit built in. You just need a potentiometer heatsink and a box to put it in and you have exactly what you describe. http://www.newark.com/united-automation/psr-25/power-control-module/dp/97K7822 I have only heated...

My last batch I fermented in a bunked and the only thing is you can't see what's going on in it, I didn't really miss it, but I use the pitch and forget for 3 weeks method of fermenting anyway. If it's not blowing out the blowoff tube then I don't mess with it at all for 3 weeks

If you wedge something down on the seal that surrounds the ball it will let pressure out without spraying bad beer everywhere. Put pressure down on the outside edge of that seal and it will move down, it's spring loaded like the ball.

Kegged margarita=delicious. Problem is I made about 3 gallons and I running out of hot weather(my preferred margarita drinking weather) around here. Oh well guess I will have to drink it out of season.

I just kegged about 3 gallons of margarita. I think I need to sweeten it a little to counter the co2 bite. Watch out for foam!

I know it will change the flavor. But it seems to me that it might be interesting if it had just a little co2 bite to it. It should flow ok as long as there are no big chunks.

This is the way I explained to the people who ask if it's cheaper. If you drink $12 a case beer then it is definitely not cheaper but once you start drinking good beer that starts getting up to two and three dollars a bottle then you can make beer that is just as good and way cheaper.

Also for reference. My tank is in the red as soon as it gets cold in the fridge. Make sure it is actually empty.

I built my own Times Helvetica once but I screwed it up and it ended up looking like wingding. :)
