Trimix Any chance you could post some pictures of the setup. I am having trouble wrapping my head around the flow pattern through the IRIMS.

I do not have the PC version but it has additional feature such as inventory and shopping list. My understanding is that the Mobil version will have these features at some point.

I use a Velcro strap around the fermentor with RC battery padding.

Interesting TallDan Makes sense, guess I was on the $ thought process. Sounds like good idea to not have element in the wort. Thought of another thing, if you loose a element, no big deal but in traditional rim if you loose THE element you have a problem. I'll have to check this out instead of...

What are benefits of this system over a normal RIMS system. Seems as if cost are similar considering the quantity of elements needed. Very interesting design, congratulations on your genius!

Me 2, three running 3 bay chambers with reptile heaters and cooling fans. Great customer service as well!

Man, I'm going broke saving all of this money! Thanks Nor-Cal for the deal!

Hope that they succeed. Little guys need a break for once!

Thanks for the offer, please send code!

Just my 2 cents, home brewing is a hobby and all hobbies cost money. When you become passionate about your hobby the price goes up. For me, building equipment and upgrading my process IS the hobby. The side benefit is great beer at affordable cost. Throwing everything aside like, equipment...

Tons of builds here on HomeBrewTalk, check out DYI thread, under stir plates.

Funny you mention Concord, just received my 15 gal from them, very nice, quality pot less than $90 delivered!

Issue is probably hops but you may want to verify that your water does not contain chloramines or just use Camden tablets in every water vessel. They are good insurance and very inexpensive. The bitterness will ease with time so you may just want to store this for a few months.

Are you going to Gravity or using pumps.Duh, guess I should have read your post. Single tier, keggle said need about 18" of surface. I am constructing a new stand for 15 gal pots and need 20" surface. Try to plan for the future and build one time. Wish I had heard my advice a year ago. This is...

You certainly would have been much better off if date was recent using 3 smack packs. With that being said, making a simple starter would make a huge difference. Using older yeast and step up starter is also a remedy. Read up on reclaiming yeast and you will have saved enough for the flask...

Part of these post suggest that the harvested yeast lose some through generations. If that is true wouldn't a starter cure that? I have been reusing 1098 and 1056 but so far only a couple generations.

Originally I just let the swirl take care of mixing but then found the occasional variance in carbonation. May not have had anything to do with just swirling but now I try to always do a gent all stir with sanitized plastic paddle.

I trust beersmith totally. The problem you may have with it is getting the equipment setup correct. Once you dial in the equipment and mash parameters you are good to go!

Totals screwed every time. Is there a way to set up a formula to ad to?
