The next big item to work out was where to get water from and where to run the drain to. I knew I wanted to use my ice maker water line. I found a 'tee' for the ice-maker hose and got a short piece of ice-maker line (they have like 6 or 8" pieces). I connected the short piece to the where the...

So my wife and I were house hunting in the Charlotte area and this one particular house has a small area between the kitchen and the dining room that I think was intended originally for some sort of wet bar or something. Right now, all that was in there is some small cabinets, one drawer, and...

Skeezerpleezers Three floyds zombie dust all grain clone

Thanks! That's what I needed to hear. So why did you move to a different setup?

I was thinking about this as well. There is a fridge somewhat nearby. When I am under my house looking for drain pipe pathways I will look for the one that runs to the fridge. I just know that the water won't be chilled as that coming from the fridge as that line goes through the freezer. And...

Wanted to bump this to see if you're around. I'm finishing my wiring this weekend and starting to get parts in. I need to make a decision on the whole one pipe two pipe thing. Any input based on your experience would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

My current plan is to plumb it to drain outside. If that isn't feasible I am going to try and splice into the same pipe my sink drains are connected to (whatever you call that). I think I can make one work.

I am in the process of installing some tap lines through the wall in a small 'wet bar' area I have that backs against my garage. In looking at the drip tray options I thought, man, wouldn't it be cool to have the kind with a glass rinser. Not only does it help with the pour but it will do a...

I really appreciate the response. That great info. I am going back and forth between the 2 pipe air supply and return and the single version. If you haven't seen the single pipe version it is simply one 3" PVC with a smaller 1" flex pipe going in this along with the lines (see attached for an...

It's something that I am trying to figure out myself. My keezer is on casters and I move it back and forth all the time. Mainly when I put kegs in and out since my keezer is double hinged and I always have to move it forward to open the bottom part. The problem depends on how you plan to run...

Great build. Is there any way you can snap a pic of inside your keezer now that you are finished? I am looking at doing something essentially exactly the same. I am wondering where your fan is mounted on the inside of your keezer. I have a pretty good temp differential from the top and the...

Couple of thoughts: If you have it on casters and have tap lines going through the wall, that would significantly complicate things. You would need to insulate the lines well as they go through the wall. I mean really well. Might want to consider a fan to blow cold air from the keezer up...

Ya, I think you're right. I decided to go ahead and pressure cook it all and use it to make a simple sour. By simple I mean I'm just going to dump some dregs of something in a carboy and see what happens. It's around 5 gallons of starter wort so it's a lot to just throw out.

Good suggestion. My problem is I'm not sure what exactly got in there. Maybe if I use some aggressive dregs (like jolly pumpkin) it won't matter right? I am assuming I should go ahead and pressure cook all the infected wort before doing that huh?

You're probably right. Might be better to cut my losses now rather than invest more time. Pressure cooking all these jars will take a good bit of time. It might be fine but I guess I would be introducing one more level of uncertainty and if anything would ever to go wrong with using this...

Maybe something got in your washed wlp-001 yeast either prior to using/washing, when you originally washed it, or after. A lot of possibilities there I guess.

Everything comes down to time right? So I brewed last Sunday and took some runnings off my spent grain to make some starter wort. I make my starter wort ahead of time and pressure cook the jars so I have cooled, sterile wort on hand for starters. Well after a long brew day, I waited until Monday...

I have two 5 gal barrels that I used to age 5 clean beers. The last of the clean beer is in there now. I had planned on having a sour beer ready to put in the barrel as soon as I take out the last clean beer so I can make the barrels sour barrels. However, I am moving and I didn't want to...

Put me down for at least 100 gallons. 100+ 44693.5 = 44793.5

Got it. I was originally thinking I was going to have to figure a place to drill a hole in the side or something. This is much easier. I do have one more question. I have a chest freezer that I use currently. When it gets kicked on by the temperature controller it only runs the compressor...
