Old newspaper is a good thing to keep in there to suck up moisture.

The diagram is a tad hard to follow on my laptop but I didn't see any glaring errors. Ground is ground. Redundancy certainly wouldn't hurt. I don't know if a shared ground would shut down the other circuits if something happened in one but that wouldn't be a bad thing anyhow. I don't think...

I have an associates in Electrical Engineering Technology and I second what this guy says. Phases should not enter into it at all as far as I know. I would guess that you have single phase in Europe the same as we do here. Bottom line is you put your meter across the two wires you hook to...

Be patient if you have a friend that owes you favors. He might be able to replace the relay. If you have it plugged into an extension cord you might not be getting enough power.

That pdf bogs my browser down so I didn't look too much. Water doesn't look too bad. My advice is always the same though. Read the primer and then use one of the many water/grist estimators and plug your numbers in and go from there. You learn a lot that way. The primer keeps it as simple...

Actually, the Williamsbrewing prices are starting to look good the more searching I do. I can probably convince my wife it is a good investment because if the electric goes out I can put it in the basement and heat the whole damned house with it if need be.

Don't. Doesn't work. Period.

Release the pressure on the keg every so often and just let it sit warm. Being a tad on the sweet side shouldn't make it taste all that bad so I expect you need to age it regardless.

Set it out and let it mature. Time will tell.

mabrungard essentially nailed the advice thing in the first response. There wasn't a whole lot to follow up on really. The jokes were simply affirmation.

Just looking at the burners, has anyone converted something similar? I've seen this style burner on other products. I just don't know if anyone has been able to convert them to NG...

Yeah, I was a full .01 off last time. Can't trust that software for estimates.

Way to many people using it that have never reported that off flavor to suspect the yeast here.

OK. You're crazy. :rockin: What species of tree you thinking about trying?

Kai did the Brewer's Friend water calculator and did a write up there. That might answer your questions as to his thought processes on this.

Personally, a little 6 row would be my preferred choice for amylase. More controlled. If sitting around chewing bark and spitting it into a bottle is something you want to do, then go for it I guess.

If Jesus walked on that water it wouldn't be considered a miracle.

I rack to a bottling bucket after cold crashing. Cold liquid holds gases better than warm ones yet I've had no oxidation problems.

I like the idea of a rechargeable unit. That way you could still go USB.

Reservoir water is a moving target. Anecdotal evidence tells me it is softer in the spring when we get lots of run off. I don't know how often they test but have thought about calling and finding out. I haven't tested pH yet though and found it under 10.8+ but I was gone most of the year...
