Nothing, huh? Are these stupid questions??

Got a new fan and it cranks!! Now I just have get my magnets in the proper spots... Should one be + side down and the other - side down? Any advantage to using 4??

I found some pictures on the webs that helped a lot and got it working just fine. My only issue is that when I tried a 12v plug it didn't work. I ended up using an old cell phone charger that's 5.7v or close to it. Definitely under 6v. The fan is not spinning nearly as fast as I want it to...

So I have everything I need... box, fan, power switch, power supply , and potentiometer. J have looked and so many diagrams and can't figure out how to wire this thing! I am a visual guy and need pictures. My fan has a red and white wire together going to a harness that has a red, yellow and...

I have an extra rheostat from a light dimmer I was going to install. Think that could work on my stir plate to control the fan??

Awesome!! That's what I was waiting to read!!

I'd love a deep basin sink for my basement so I don't have to hike up and down stairs with full carboys and buckets! Also another wall mounted tap set up and drip tray would be good. Thanks, Santa!

I have recently come across some very old dark LME that a co-worker ga e me. Not sure how old exactly but for some reason it was stored in a plastic bag and is completely solid! I was thinking of setting up a double boiler to possibly turn it back into a liquid state to avoid any scorching. Any...

Now that you say it, I do clean after I brew and then again right before... I always thought it was so much work! Now I just need to get some Starsan! Could you use Starsan to flush out a keg line in between kegs, or would Oxyclean followed by a rinse be fine?

Thanks! I've used just Oxyclean for years and never had a problem but I like the idea of no rinsing!

I recently watched a few Brewing TV episodes (awesome, BTW!) and noticed that when ever they used Star-San, they didn't rinse anything after... Can you do the same with Oxyclean? Have I been wasting my time??

Also, I am serving from this keg... Otherwise it would really make a difference..

What about getting all of the wort out the massive bloated bag of grains? Should I squeeze it? Hang it over the pot?

Getting ready to dry hop my IPA today and I wanted to do it right in the keg. I searched around for some tips and they're all great but my problem is I have a commercial keg with a sanke coupler. The opening is a lot smaller than a corny keg so I'm not sure how I'm going to keg the hops in or...

Make a pale and an IPA with the extracts and they came out great!

I am thinking of using a bunch of hops that I have sitting in the freezer for a batch tomorrow... I have Mt. Hood, Sterling, Tettnang and Golding. All between 4.2% and 5.6%. I want to use all of them just for the hell of it! Bad idea? What kind of aromas and taste will I get? We'll see!!:mug:

How much do you generally use?

I have used Splenda to sweeten my cider after fermentation is completely done to avoid over carbonation in my bottles and had great success... Anybody else try this out?

Living in the Northeast I figured I would keeping my temp better in the cooler during the winter months... Thanks, folks!

I think I just might do it! I'll post with updates...
