Did you have to request they send it to you? Or did they just send it to you since they knew you bought and didn't get one?

Thanks, I'll give it a try after this sight glass is full. I'm getting tons of good yeast from this batch. I have 4 sight glasses so it's easy to keep filling them as long as good yeast is settling down.

I assume you mean crack just a tiny bit to allow pressure out. Wouldn't I lose a bunch or beer / yeast that way?

So I'm looking for tips here. I use sight glasses to capture and save yeast (instead of Mason jars) however, I'm making a 12 gallon Czech lager right now and when I closed the valve right on the dump port and removed the sight glass I attached another capped sight glass to fill again since mine...

Yeah, I was planning on buying a second one but I'm still upset about the arbitrary 100 dollar price hike they did. They should retro send these out for people who supported their new product first.

Bummer that they won't offer them to people who already bought the tanks

Please let us know what ss says about the controller tray.

Where is everyone getting that little shelf the stss controller sits on. Mine didn't come with that and I can't find it on their website.

Do you worry about nasties growing in the glycol water while room temperature?

You can get that from brewhardware.com however you might instead consider getting a tri clamp to quarter inch MFL. One less thing to have to take apart and have Gunk up still ultimately gets the same objective and you're shutting it off with a valve so you really don't need the quick shut off of...

I would like to do a trub dump, if don't see it how though. It have a butterfly valve under the dump port then a sight glass under my butterfly valve, then the 90 degree elbow, then a second butterfly valve at the end. When I look at the sight glass, it is crazy active and does not look like...

Speaking of lagers, with this unitank, are you guys planning on going to a trub/yeast dump. It have one going now at 48 degrees, no dry hopping, 15 points away from fg. Not sure when I want to raise to 65 degrees or if I should attempt a yeast dump. It's still way too active to try it now

I considered the penguin or SSBrewtech glycol chiller but ultimately decided to make it. One $30 Frigidaire basic ac unit off Craigslist, a smaller quality igloo cooler and a homemade STC 1000 controller and it was perfect. I control the glycol with more than enough accuracy and can easily go...

Same here. I worry they will leak since they are hard, but they don't seem to

Yes, the silicone picked up a smell. If I take them off and smell them they will have hops smells after cleaning.

I think my biggest concern with the unitank, is that even after very thoroughly doing a CIP and a full breakdown cleaning with PBW and starsan I still smell hops when I stick my nose in and take a wiff. My last beer had tons of dry hops so I'm sure that's partly why. I think the smell is in all...

I did, I have a glycol chiller and I crashed to 32 degrees and held for a a week or so. I'm sure it would have been more efficient with more volume but it still worked. I set my glycol bath to around 14 degrees Fahrenheit.

I recently made a 5-gallon batch in my 14 gallon tank, it seemed to work fine. I thought about buying a 7 gallon but I'm having trouble finding a good reason

I have a bunch of them. 40 each, varying conditions, all decent enough though. Located in York pa

I try to support BrewHardware.com anytime I can though. For creative fittings and unique parts he can't be beat. Not to mention custom parts and service, I'm willing to pay a small premium for that. Amazon works in a pinch though.
