Nice mtbr_brewer! That's quite the before and after change! Kal

Would be interesting to throw in a stainless washer like the Blichmann... though normally washers where things rub are supposed to be a low-friction which is probably why teflon was used. The Blichmann design has to be different if they're using a stainless washer. It probably doesn't serve the...

I don't know - sorry! There have been threads in this forum and others about PBW and the type of teflon that is used in our breweries (pumps/valves/tape/etc) so you could try reviving one of those, or possibly ask March since it deals directly with your pump - they're usually very good at...

FYI - The mention about PBW dissolving teflon is not accurate I'm afraid. If it was, the ball lock seats and teflon tape that many brewers use would disintegrate too. So do not be concerned with using PBW on the sort of teflon we use in our breweries (ball locks, teflon tape, March/Chugger...

Then after you read the guide you can follow up on the extra reading material mentioned (aka: The 'Water' book). ;) P.S. Nice grain mill enclosure! Kal

Heads up for anyone who wants to use EZWaterCalculator 3: I Put together a simplified step by step guide for water adjustment that uses EZWaterCalculator (though any software will work). See: www.theelectricbrewery.com/water-adjustment Cheers! Kal

Published a new (long overdue) step by step guide on WATER ADJUSTMENT. See: http://www.theelectricbrewery.com/water-adjustment There are far too many complex guides (and books) out there that I find are overly confusing or gloss over the actual "how to" parts and only present complex...

Bourbon barrel aged Russian Imperial Stout served on nitro (10.6% ABV)

Checked on my Belgain Saison (down to 1.003!) and milled grain/measured hops for a batch of Electric Hop Candy to be brewed tomorrow evening. Kal

I can't say I've been overly comfortable with these connectors either. I wouldn't use them for high current connections. YMMV. Kal

Nice job zimmer988! Great clean wiring. Kal

Make a yeast starter for a Kolsch that I'm going to brew on the weekend! Kal

My Amana AZC31T15DW does fit 10 ball lock kegs but I find it overly tight, so I usually only have 9 kegs in it. (Yes, "only" 9 - times are tough). ;) A picture of the mess: https://www.instagram.com/p/BAGbNepoKm5/?taken-by=theelectricbrewery It's the large glycol trunk line in the left of...

It was interesting! Hoppier than I thought. I ended up calling it my 'Electric Hop Stand Pale Ale' - I did a huge writeup of it here with pictures and my findings, including some competition results. Me brewing it: Sludge: Dry hopping: My beer in a competition: Kal

Nope. The fridges we can be set from 39 to 64F, allowing a wide variety of beers to be produced from lagers to ales without any additional modifications. Actual wort temp may be as much as 4 degrees higher. (See my ferment and package page for more details and breakdown of how I use the...

I documented it here and will keep it up to date as other models that work come about: http://www.theelectricbrewery.com/Brew-Bucket-Stainless-Steel-Fermenter Kal

I brewed a New England IPA today, that I'm calling "Electric Hop Candy". Should be tasty! Kal

My 'Electric Hop Candy' New England IPA (hazy on purpose, like a wheat beer for those who are not familiar with the style). Turned out great but still has at least one more round of tweaks to go through before it's exactly the way I want it...
