    Window replacement

    The physical action of replacing is straight forward enough. As to the features of the design, they (like many other things), are a you get what you pay for. Go cheap, you get cheap. Chances are the windows you are buying are leaps and bounds more elaborate in design and performance than what...

    Why are drip trays so expensive???

    I didn't want one of those things hanging off the front of my keezer. Instead I opted for a stainless speed rail and lined it with paper towels. https://www.barproducts.com/speed-rails-single-bar Bonus was that when I had berliner weisse and or soda water on tap I also had a place for...

    Best temp to steep grains?

    There are base grains, (2-row, 6-row, Maris Otter, Pale Ale, Pilsner) that are not converted and require mashing. And there are specialty grains (aka steeping grains like Crystal, chocolate) that are pre-converted and only require a means to get the sugars out of the chaff.

    You could also consider just roasting a pound of that two-row yourself.

    Rice Hulls Pricing

    50lbs of rice hulls is a LOT of rice hulls. I once bought a 50lb sack for, IIRC, $35. After 2 years of using them in everything I barely made a dent in the volume. Ended up using much of them in the garden as a soil amendment.

    Oklahoma homebrewing license

    I don't recall anymore. I gave her 8 crowns, of different varieties. At my peak I had 14 varietals. Price of hops came back down and it wasn't worth the hassle to grow anymore.

    Electric motor + Mill - Need Assistance w/ Pulley System

    Yes. You will need to have a way to adjust the distance between the motor and mill. Not just because the belt will stretch over time but also to make it easier to install the belt. It has been years since I motorized mine but, I'd also suggest you plan your set-up around the use of standard...

    Electric motor + Mill - Need Assistance w/ Pulley System

    Also, check the recommendations of the manufacture of the mill you have for target speed. IIRC, target speeds are between 100 to 200 RPM depending on mills.

    Electric motor + Mill - Need Assistance w/ Pulley System

    You have to find the RPM of the motor. Then google for online calculator/reference chart to size the pulleys to a target RPM at the mill. Then calculate the belt length from there. Do keep in mind that your mounting system will need to have some amount of play in it to allow for tensioning the...
