    The complete cleaning regimen of a brutus system

    Wow! Not to sure what to say here aside from the fact that I am learning several things especially from the posted links (Thank you Cliff!). My personal take thus far is similar to Cliff's....basically penny wise dollar foolish in respect to sanitizing all the pre-boil equipment. I store all my...

    The complete cleaning regimen of a brutus system

    I now have 3 brew sessions through my brutus and the biggest question in the back of my mind (especially when I'm getting ready to brew again) is "Is my system clean and sanitized and ready to brew?" I have read several posts here on the topic and of course many methods, and many theories are...

    3 roller grain mill build question

    I am in the middle of a grain mill build and have the rollers done and ready for the sides to be drilled for bushings etc... Looking at the large MM 3 roller mill, I am curious for those who own the mill does the bottom roller rotate in one direction or does it occasionally rotate in either...

    Finally the rig is done and actually has one quick porter through it already. Only took 9 months! Thanks to all the members (to many to mention) for the all the help along the way! This Sunday I will be having at least 25 family and friends over for the first "official" brew day. I'll post...

    Chris Knight's brew rig

    Hey Chris, nice start to a great rig! I can associate with the kid in a candy store analogy. I just brewed my first batch this past weekend on mine this past weekend. I to am using NG on mine. The only difference is that I have the larger 23 tip burners. Weather it be right or wrong, I am not...

    Thermowell for Love controller?

    Thanks to all! I did as you suggested Lonnie and took a 1/4 diameter phillips screw driver and opened up the flare at the end of the thermowell, and then I sanded a bit of the brass off and now the thermistors slide in there no probalmo! Wiring this week and hopefully brewing for the first time...

    Thermowell for Love controller?

    Thanks for the heads up Lonnie! Unfortunately I removed the black cover and the thermistor is still to big. The diameter of the thermistor is .255" and my thermowell inside diameter I got from Northern Brewer is just over .200". Just curious where you got your thermowell? Thanks in advance!

    Thermowell for Love controller?

    I am getting close to wiring up my Brutus build and just bought a thermowell from Northern Brewer and the outer diameter of the thermometer probe is to big to fit inside of the thermowell. Just curious where people are getting their thermowells from or if there is another way to get the probe...

    Show us your sculpture or brew rig

    Thanks to all on the input! I did do some research prior to building the frame on the melting point and what NG burns at so on..... Obviously with the great heat transfer of aluminum, the frame will become hot throughout while in use thus I will have to make a separate channel for my wiring. The...

    Thanks for the compliments. The burners are actually for NG which burns a little cooler but not much. I have some stainless sheet stock the I may end up making someheat shield with if need be. I may end up also plugging a few nozzles on the burners as well.

    The frame is all 2x2 aluminum. Still have to mount the plate chiller yet and put the control panel together. The control panel is made of all aluminum diamond plate.

    I took the plunge

    I bought the same plate chiller from the same guy and have not used mine yet. The one thing I would like to point out is that at the bottom of his add on EBay he/she mentions that a group buy at a reduced price would be entertained....
