I am in the same boat. Found the stock thermostat and was hoping to swap that out with some after market unit, preferably digital, but analog will do. Google searches up and down but keep coming up with the traditional 'plug interception unit'. Looking for something more hardwired. I.E...

Beer gnomes would become a serious issue.

Or an Island. I am sure all of us put together could run a civilization. Home brewers come from many trades, but more importantly were do-it-yourselfers.

I did the epoxy in the garage, must say it makes a huge difference. Not only on appearance, but spills are a breeze to clean up. Even if its a fermenter thats blown and had most of the day to dry into a sticky mess, mops right up. A lot of other cool things you can do with concrete; staining...

Plus Tecate is pretty drinkable compared to the rest.

ice will melt real quick. Dunno the math on it but 212 down to 70 with 32... you may need twice as much ice as wort.

I'd probley consider throwing it in at the end of the boil. Heard something about cooked grape juice messes with the taste were use to in wine.

Psst, I think your secret is out.

I don't think the fees would be too necessary if people were paying retail on what you'd be getting at whole-sale. Or you could flip it the other way around, charge whole-sale on ingredients and have the member fee to compensate for overhead. Might even be able to start a micro-brewery that...

I took no notes, but the beer came out excellent. Have one left. At about 6 months they tasted ok but had a funny twang. About 1 year they were right. My only regret was tasting them too early. If your going to go for it, wait a year to try the first. Edit; The best I can remember, Did 5 lbs...

at what point does a primary become an open container, during krausen? I've also thought about keeping the capper in the car in the case I am drinking and driving, but I'd probley still get a DUI.

You can worry about raw honey if you want but I don't. If you can see thru it, its probley already pasteurized. Yes the flavors of honey are delicate and you loose a lot when you boil it, but if its pasteurized the subtle aromas are already gone. I've heard of compromises of holding raw honey at...

Very cool. May have to make a bunch of these. Could also put some cool valve caps on top...
