    Fermentation heater

    I recently had some experience using an Inkbird controller to heat up fermentation chamber located in a 60-62F basement to maintain 68F Fermentation temp, it will get colder in the winter and likely drop to 56-58F. So my first batch using a 23W reptile heat pad did not go well. It had some off...

    Grain Mills..... Best one, Why?

    Wow the Millars Mill looks solid! I think that is my next one. For those that have it, does it have bearings on the non drive roller? I cant tell from the website. Also the only nitpick I have is the graduation marks are too coarse. 0.01 to 0.25 to 0.45 over a quarter turn. I initially...

    New Jersey New (2) 20 gallon Megapot 1.2, False Bottom, March Pump, Transfer kit

    I don't have pics because these are brand new in box, 1 box has never been opened, the other was opened to take a measurement and check hardware, did not take out of box. No dents or box damage from shipping. I can take them out to confirm there is no damage before you make the drive.

    BruNWater vs Mash Made Easy, different PH outcome

    My process is no different from what has been recommended on this forum by people that know a lot more about this stuff than I do. Basically mash in, wait at least 30 mins, pull sample, allow sample to cool to room temp, take reading. Sometimes I pull at end of mash during transfer to BK. I...

    BruNWater vs Mash Made Easy, different PH outcome

    That is what I figured it was more with the "material characterization" vs the spreadsheet itself. BW has been very accurate for me predicated to actual in the last 30+ brews I have been paying attention to water chemistry and measuring pH. In the end actual is what really matters, and assumes...

    BruNWater vs Mash Made Easy, different PH outcome

    Great topic, BW has been pretty reliable for me on predicted to actual for most lighter to amber color brews, my last one I missed by -0.1 below BW predicted but I was using more darker specialty grains I have never used before. I have noticed a similar difference on what you found on MME vs...

    Oktoberfest style beer help

    Life got in the way and I missed my window to mash in between the kids games and had to punt brew day to this coming weekend. Made a slight tweak to recipe to bump IBUs to 27 so bitterness to gravity is just under 0.5.

    The subtleties of pH

    Glad you asked all these questions as it made me look into my process and I think I have been doing it wrong, or at least I am confused on the correct way to target PH. Just when I thought I was dialing in my process I am up in the air again. No intent to hijack but I think the next part could...

    Clean/check those CO2 lines and manifolds!

    I just cleaned mine too and they were dirty after 1 year. Ran BLC through since I was doing my beer lines. I have a downward bend in my incoming line before my manifold (check valves work) almost like a P trap and noticed an accumulation of a green liquid. Did not look beer related. Does CO2...

    New England IPA "Northeast" style IPA

    I brewed my first NEIPA a couple weeks ago. It was a NB Beerie Smalls kit. I don't normally do kits but i wanted a decent representation of the style as my baseline and I was rushing to fit it on a specific brew day. I did not have time to research water profile for this style and just used...

    Blichmann Burner short legs

    I have the original burner, but the design looks very similar and would not think they would be different or changed. I just measured mine, and from the top where the pot rests on the leg I get 1-3/4" to first leg mount hole, 3-5/8" to clearance hole (for allen bolt that mounts the burner to...
