That looks awesome!

Thanks! I will get to it this weekend. When you say re-wire, if I pull the cord, cut 8" off and everything looks good, should that be ok to re-install. Or are you thinking I should put on a whole new power cord in addition to checking and inspecting all of the components?

Thanks for the reply's guys. I don't have thin skin so no offense taken. I purchased this system so i am still figuring out what the original owner did. I should have taken the time to build it so I would know it better, but I jumped at a great opportunity to buy a previously assembled version...

So about 45 mins into the boil of my last brew session my temp dropped to about 201 and wouldn't climb. I messed with everything I could think of and let things limp across the finish line without figuring anything out. After things cooled down I pulled things apart, I found the insulation on...

A stewardess on a recent flight I was on was pouring a red from a north west brewery and the glass ended up being half foam. She looked confused and said "all that foam is because the beer has so many hops in it". Hmmm, I think it's cause you poured it into the glass too quickly after shaking...

If you search for it you will find your answer. Many people have racked onto frozen bananas with great results. I think Yoopers also did a banana wine which might be sort of helpful. I say rack onto frozen ripe bananas and let it go until it tastes amazing.

Empty? Time to start filling the kegs! Are you planning on 10 gallon batches? What are you planning to have on rotation on those taps?

Thanks for sharing that. Why the autosiphon instead of using the ball valve to drain into the kettle?

Just mashed in what will be 10 gallons of BM's centennial blonde with some hop adjustments.

If you are willing to drive to Long Beach, stein fillers has decent bull grain prices and a good overall selection.

Double Haul from KettleHouse brewery in Missoula MT won gold in the English IPA category at the GABF and their beer uses Montana grown malt and cascade; the yeast must be the deciding factor?

Taking a growler of a saison, as well as a growler of the imperial stout I brew every New Year's Day and tap the following Christmas Eve tonight. ~Cheers!

Great blog! Thanks for the time you put into these experiments; they benefit us all.

It's working fine for me... Sorry your session isn't going so well.

All these posts make me want to jump in the car tomorrow morning and drive up the coast! Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

If I'm brewing 10 gallons I tend to brew a recipe with a middle of the road hop nose into the keg, and then add a bunch of keg hops right before tapping it. It seems to be the best middle road between brewing 5 gal. vs. 10 gal. of an IPA at a time. Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

This is really neat... Hope it turns out fantastic! Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

Just knocked out 11 gallons of the on going attempt at dialing in a perfect house pale. All CTZ additions, with a dry hop of CTZ and galaxy. Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

That does look nice. I was going to do a few sacks of American pale, and there English pale might work out nicely. I was hoping for a sack of some white wheat, but it doesn't look like they carry anything similar. If we decide to go this route, without filling a pallet, I can fill my order from...
