Phoenix (sorry guys & gals, had to do it)

I wouldn't mind hearing some details. Feel free to post here or DM or whatever if it's still available.

I'm game. Thanks!

Thanks guys. I know there are some tradeoffs. Condenser means less boil off, therefore less overall volume of wort necessary to put in the kettle to begin with for the same quantity into the fermentor. I just wanted a rough estimate, and knowing the height difference should enable me to make...

I may have missed the obvious, so forgive me if this is covered elsewhere. Assuming a standard 15 gallon kettle, how much usable volume can I expect to lose if I add a 1.5" TC port at the top for one of these condenser units? I'm considering going this route, but just want to consider any...

So, is it in a keg or bottles? I'm confused, just like the person above.

Maybe just because it's an (almost) inconsequential step? Or that it's dependent upon your setup? As in, the height of various pieces. Also, some integrated pumps may not be situated ideally for transfer, depending on where they pull from, exactly. Just a guess.

Looking forward to the results.

I'll take a code. Thanks!

I'll put one to good use. Thanks!

How do you clean that thing?

Even NB has some: Dingemans Belgian Munich Malt It's just Munich malt made by one of the Belgian maltsters. I doubt anyone could tell the difference between any of them and the German Munichs, unless it's a SMASH beer. Even then, I think it would be pretty tough.

It doesn't need to be shiny to work properly. Just clean. In use, you do want to put it in the wort several minutes before chilling. This is to sanitize the chiller to prevent unwanted microorganisms from getting started before your yeast does.

Dear people who wear masks below their noses, I've asked for a shiny new set of pliers for Christmas. I'll soon be rotating your noses 180 degrees with my new toy when I run into you grocery shopping. Sincerely, Someone responsible and respectful, even though masks are no fun

I'll give it a go. Thanks!

While I'm sure there is *some* impact, I have difficulty seeing that the need for time scales linearly with volume or height. At any rate, what I'm talking about here is not the duration of time it takes for a particle to travel top to bottom (that doesn't seem controversial here) but rather...

This seems to be one of those perennial debates. Suffice to say that it's not incorrect to do it either way, but some people feel strongly or claim to have compelling evidence that one way is better than the other. I'll let you decide if you want to go down that rabbit hole. As to the...

All's well that ends well. Glad to hear you made a tasty beer.

My thanks. What kind of wine did you make?
