I totally get why people love these units, I've looked into them more than once or twice myself, and people wouldn't vouch for them if they weren't an enjoyable experience. I think that the next reiteration of the GF, or maybe a new market entrant, will cover the bases that some of us brought...

I'll give Bobby the benefit of the doubt and assume that he was referring to ramp up times, both from start to mash and then from mash out to boil. The whole point of these all-in-one units is convenience, so when it adds another hour to your brew day because of the smaller elements, it kind of...

I'm hoping they can re-engineer one of these all-in-one kits for 220/240v use, I feel like that'd really appease a lot of the folks that're on the fence about these units. Since these come from an Australian firm, I'd imagine the units they sell domestically have to run on 220v, wouldn't they?

Now that you mention the filter (which is listed on the misters), I'm noticing it is not listed on either of those links that I gave, so I'd imagine they don't have any filters built in. Oh well, no biggie, why mess with something that works perfectly well already. Thanks BrunDog

So it's actually longer than the 1.5" nipple, but sits the nozzle a tad higher in the tee?? Lol how'd that one work out? Thanks for giving me the heads up though.

I just don't see how Steven can justify the markup to the $1,200 price tag on that new Unibrau system. The controller is obviously inferior to the prior versions he's offered, and when compared to the GF Connect it's night and day with the whole Bluetooth/Web Connectivity aspect. I see he...

I remember reading something like that this AliExpress seller split ties with the company that produces the Mark II pump, so he took his supply to AliExpress. Apparently it's the same pump as the Mark II, just unbranded, and without any business backing it if issues do arise. My SS Mark II has...

@butterblum I believe this is the thread that ancientmariner52 is referring to: https://www.homebrewtalk.com/forum/threads/boil-kettle-condenser-no-overhead-ventilation-needed.636955/ It's an add-on to your kettle that completely replaces a hood, fans, or other conventional means of getting...

Thank you for going out of your way to get that picture, I think I will shorten up the nipple like you did. I found a 1-1/8" long on McMaster (https://www.mcmaster.com/#4830K171), which is the shortest I could find on there. I'll add this to the list above as well in case anyone else is...

80 degree cone on the McMaster sprays. @ingchr1 Seems like that's a good height with the 1 inch nipple, did you get any of the spray going into the branch off of the tee?

Thanks brother and @Thedutchtouch appreciate it as well

So, @BrunDog put together an item list with links much earlier in this thread for his 2" version, but I was hoping to help anyone looking to put together the 1.5" TC version of this, as I'm compiling this order right now. @Dockside_Brewing linked his build somewhere along the way too using 1.5"...

@Bobby_M another order inbound lol. Thanks.

For some reason, it took me way too long to think of this question for the group, but: Would I be able to use one TC fitting on the kettle to use this condenser during boil and then remove it, replace with a TC whirlpool arm for the last bit of the boil to sanitize, and then whirlpool through...

I'm at that 70-75 psi range as well, but my Orlando ground water averages about 74* throughout the year. Sounds like I'll start with that 6 GPH sprayer, and order the 9 GPH as well, just in case. Thanks brother.

Understood, thank you @Cool_Hand_Luke and @BrunDog

So is there a decision on whether the 6 or 9 GPM sprayer works better for folks with 60-80 psi water sources? And is there any new news with sprayers vs misters? (Working with 2-4 gallon batches here, on a 1500 watt element.) Also, any updates on 1.5” vs 2” TC equipment? Will the 1.5” suffice?

Ok, just wondering, in case any of those LODO benefits maybe applied to this setup.

Just wondering, would this be considered “low oxygen brewing”?

Some guys, like Brew Boss, literally just put a 5lb weight on the lid initially. They were using a lid "gasket" as well though, looks like made out of a split open length of silicone tubing.
