I also have the Brewzilla 120v and was not happy with the time to boil. My latest addition was one of the Hotrod Heat Sticks that Bobby sells at brewhardware.com. I throw it in when I get ready to boil and it cuts my ramp time to about 1/3 of what it was before. (from 30-45 min down to about...

Ok, here are the pics. 1) shows the fermzilla lid with the white o-ring that comes with it. That o-ring does not help but I left it on anyway. Notice the lid has a flange that sticks out past the o-ring. 2) shows the yellow o-ring that came with the Speidel lid. It sits right on that flange. 3)...

I've got mine on an active fermentation right now but when it is done in about a week I will take some detailed pics. All I did was add the large o-ring that came with the Speidel lid to the fermzilla lid. When I then set that lid onto the Speidel opening, that o-ring matched up to the top of...

I may try it on the outside next time.

I put mine inside the basket and it works great

Thanks. Glad you are enjoying it so far.

Yeah, this is my first round. Luckily a mild case. Had totally forgotten about the loss of smell thing.

One of my favorite aspects of brew day is smelling the hops. I just love that aroma. I was getting my hops ready for brew day yesterday, opened the first bag and smelled... nothing. No smell at all. I thought that was weird. Opened another bag, smelled... nothing. Third bag... nothing. There is...

^ Very nice!

I played D&D starting in about 1980-81 pretty regularly through the 90s. 1st edition only. Still have all the books, modules, character sheets, dice, etc. After computers came out (I feel old saying that), we wrote visual basic programs to automate a lot of the activities (random monsters...

With the added benefit of hanging out in a hardware store for while. Second only to hanging out at a LHBS.

On the standard black and grey ball lock QDs, if you unscrew the top cap, there is an o-ring that sits in there. Anyone know the size or a good source for replacements?

for cold crashing in my brewbucket, I use a cask breather (normally used for cask ales). connect a co2 source to the IN side and it allows enough co2 in to maintain even (atmospheric) pressure in the fermenter.

? Meaning just a last blast of CO2 in the headspace or does this mean something else?

Thanks. I pour from keg using standard picnic taps that would not be compatible but I see they sell an adapter (QD, hose and valve) for the tapcooler that allows connecting directly to the keg. I may give that a try.

duplicate - sorry

When filling bottles from keg with one of these, how long are you finding that your bottled beers stay carbonated and fresh? NEIPAs vs Stouts?

Does the dog help with cleaning?
