    Brew Boss Systems

    Btw, what are you all using under your kettle. Silicon trivets? Just seems crappie to have such a nice system and then have to use these things that don't really fit and are all different colors. I know someone else has come up with a great idea.

    Brew Boss Systems

    I used a measuring cup and marked out 1/2 gallon and gallon on the pitcher. I then etched the inside of my kettle with the Q-tip and battery method.

    Been walking and smelled hops?

    I work in a high school on a spread out campus. Have caught whiffs of the Ghanja before but today I smelled something and was like "that's not weed... smells like...hops" first thought after that was "what variety? Citrus smell, a little pine..." what a minute, what in the heck am I doing...

    Brew Boss Systems

    I split off of my run for my dryer. Put a note on the dryer when I am brewing and flip the spa panel breaker. Good to go. I will undo this set up if I ever sell so meets code.

    Is this New York law for real?

    Sorry if someone thought I was posting rubbish. I clearly stated I read it in a kickstarter campaign and quoted directly from that campaign. Makes sense if it is for farm breweries and labeled as "New York State" beer. I knew some people on here would know the real deal on the law. Thanks to...

    Is this New York law for real?

    Was looking through some Kickstarter campaigns and saw one about a hop farm and they had this in the description. "New laws for NYS micro brewed beer at this point in time require 20% of hops to be sourced from NY. In 4 years this percentage rises to 60%, and in 9 years this percentages rises...

    Having kidney problems, everyone blaming homebrew

    That right there is funny! Good one Bruce Jenner! Back to the OP. My FIL had them and they put a stent in his urethra so they would pass. Has a string hanging out the end. Once they passed he pulled it out. Ouch. BRB. Going to drink 6-8 glasses of water that I should be drinking daily!

    Newbie Kegging Question - Two Kegs, One Regulator

    Buy a manifold. One line for gas in and as many gas outs as you want. Depends on which one you buy. Downside is that all lines out will be at the same pressure. http://www.kegworks.com/2-to-9-way-aluminum-co2-distribution-manifolds-for-draft-beer-systems:mug:

    Brew Boss Systems

    Let me preface this by saying I have never done all grain on a traditional 3 vessel system using a mash tun. I have a 15 gallon Brew Boss system and it is my understanding that it is due to starting with a full water volume when the grains are dumped in. I start with at least 7.5 gallons for a...

    Road Trip to Micro Breweries

    DFH is about 2 hours from DC. I think Flying Dog is in Fredrick, Md, about an hour from DC? Think DFH has a pub in DC though.

    Anyone else think like I do, like "how can I use this in my setup?"

    Yea, fishing stuff bypasses the house and goes straight to the shed. Brewing stuff is in the basement though. Tougher to hide!

    Anyone else think like I do, like "how can I use this in my setup?"

    I will pull off the side of the road in a heartbeat for a tow strap!

    Anyone else think like I do, like "how can I use this in my setup?"

    So, going into the local grocery store and I see these 3, one gallon jugs sitting by another vehicle next to the spot where I parked. My first thought was "what the sHell?" But that was pretty quickly followed by, "I bet I could use those for secondary fermenting and experiment with different...

    Show me how you drain...

    Here's mine. Got it from Harbor Freight- think it is called a figure 9. Does the job. I have to lift the basket with some help from the device but then when it gets locked in its all good. Keep it up higher to drain but just lowered the device for the pictures.

    Brew Boss Systems

    I know it has been stated on this forum before, but I am going to say it again. Darin, Brew Boss creator, is awesome to deal with and offers excellent customer service. I have one of the original "pico bre" e-biab systems that I didn't even buy from him. I bought unused from the original...

    Brew Boss Systems

    Don't know if I have the latest version of it. It is V. 3.0. I bought the system from a guy that never used it b/c he lived in an apartment and couldn't run the electric for it. What version was the last upgrade he had before switching to the newer style controller?

    Brew Boss Systems

    Just want to make sure I end up with the right amount going into the fermenter. I have the original e-biab legacy type Brew Boss. Don't think it has the auto boil detect. Also needs to get the new temp probe. On my current short one it is reading about 6 degrees too cold. Was boiling its...

    For current "Brew Bosses", what is the water to grain ratio you have been using?
