I did and am glad for it... and that does not limit you to just a canned extract kit... a local or on line home brew supply store will have recipes kits in all grain, partial mash (steeping) and all extract versions.... of the same recipe. The Kit recipe takes a lot of the variables out of...

That is a nice kit.. few things I learned after buying a top of the line kitchen sink kit....(which was full of options and swap outs... from Austin Home Brew Supply) Happy I upgraded to a 30qt double wall pot.... Now wish I had gone larger. All the brew kits seem to have a 5gal carboy for...

New chamber working well... two buckets in place and room for a third... Held temp to 16.6 ~17.5 all night, with only two compressor cycles.

To get back to the OP. No, never been cut off, but I don't really go to bars anymore... and never drove when i did. Yes I'be be a little pissed if I was cut off and an public announcement was made.. though it's a two edged sword.. If I was hammered,, then i deserved to be called out....If I...

73 bars in south Tx were cited for selling to an intoxicated person. I wounder if they know this individual is telling the world he got away with drunk driving and endangering the public, even though the bar was supposedly hammered (pun intended) TABC site has a GREAT search program...

See, you continue to show a complete lack of personal responsibility. There is nothing funny about your driving drunk,,, Nothing funny about you drinking to excess in public and then blaming your lack of moral, ethical behavior as a fault of anyone but YOU.

Hey leave Texas out of this, or I’ll go search out some irresponsible drunk guy dumb stuff from Fairfield County, CT :D EDIT, ok that was weird, not what you had in your post when I quoted it... Anyways

My first fermentation chamber based on a nearly free 5.5 Cu Ft freezer using an STC-1000 was fun to build and has worked great for several batches.. But could only fit two 6.5 gal buckets at a time. Then I decided to start kegging... and the need for a new Ferm chamber was born. Days of...

Besides Brewing?? I suppose these days it's Motorcycles mainly. Current collection is more road than dirt as Texas has crap for public riding land. Supporting current and past toys and hobby's is a well outfitted Automotive garage with machining, welding and metal fabricating capability.. that...

Freeze a gallon of spring water.. drop that in the wort as both cooling and top off. Or get a cheap plastic tube/ trash can at a local dollar General or what ever you have there. Last resort, big strong cardboard box and some heavy duty trash bags to make a tub for the pot. Or... does she...

Looking for at least one more and maybe two if the price is right. Ball lock only as that is what Im set up for and fits my Keezer. Don't have to be new condition, but would like serviceable and not trashed. Stickers or paint markings Im ok with. (if it needs refurbish but is complete, Id...

By chance do you have a double boiler? If so that would work (never measured, but pretty sure mine will do a gallon.. just, but should fit.) I've never reduced wort, but have many other high content prone to scorching or sugary liquids .... slow and steady has always been the key to success.

As stated, leave it be. Up to a few months has shown me no ill effects so far.

About $35 start to finish..if you have to buy everything new off the shelf,,,, less if you have some parts to donate to the project (cut a cord off something un used, old Tupperware container or another device you can scrap the case from) STC-1000 $19.00 120v AC Receptacle and cover $2.50...

Im sure a paint strainer bag from the hardware store works.. but as I get my grain, extract and other beer making materials from a HBS place .. Im not wasting my time and gas to make a second stop at the Home Depot to pick up painting equipment. At my LHBS a Large Nylon grain bags cost me...

double post, Mods please delete.. Thanks

First two buckets I bought had a large hole, next 3 I bought did not so I put um on the mil and machined a hole. A hole saw with some clean up would work as well.. Just clamp the lid to a piece of wood as a backer

Polish the tube and fittings, soak in starsan.. I would think you'd be ok on sanitation... as long as the fittings are air tight and there are no pockets in the solder (so they should be a good fillet joint http://www.copper.org/applications/plumbing/techcorner/images/aws_3trule3.jpg ) Now...

If you use buckets, get lids with the larger stopper hole for the air lock.. then a cheap thief @8.99 http://www.austinhomebrew.com/product_info.php?cPath=178_67_363&products_id=1227 Spray the airlock stopper area with starsan, remove, spray thief with starsan, drop in bucket and pull...

http://www.brewershardware.com/16-Stainless-Steel-Thermowell.html Making your own if you can close seal the one end in a sanitary fashion that has no nooks and crannies for crap to grow is an option.. And While I could make a thermowell from SS tube and a solid piece machined to fit and...
