Yes, i just dry it out like any other part but be careful not to break the stone and i usually boil it 10 min every time before using it to open all the pores and sanitize.

if im not mistaken i think i can make this for ~$28, all from aliexpress and ebay, let you guys know if it works :D

yes!!! thank you good sir, the second you post that ill be building it! Cheers :mug:

when i bought it it was $5.99 but looks like they changed the price, i just updated it, but as NivBrew said this new controller should work exactly the same way :mug:

Believe me, you WANT a self primping pump, i tried it with a pump similar to that one and its not practical at all

Hi everyone, this is a pretty straight forward DIY stir plate with all the parts from Ebay, some part are coming from china and it might take a month or more to get them but i went as cheap as possible. First of all i super glued x2 magnets to the top part of the fan at the center with a...

damn, now im not sure, was looking to use this, what do you think? http://www.ebay.com/itm/252229338452

what power adapter did you use? ive always seen pumps work in amps not in watts, cheers! *update: scratch that, i found my answer lol!

Alpha acids will continue to isomerize after flameout until the temperature of the wort reaches about 175 °F (79 °C). https://byo.com/mead/item/2808-hop-stands :D

i would recommend you try EZ water calculator, there are some videos by BobbyNJ on how to use it on an older version, but basically the same thing, you would need to adjust it with some salts so you can fit it to your beer water profile, but these are not expensive at all, 35 dlls and you got...

Hopefully not! Apparently you have a very healthy fermentation going on, put a hose on the lid and use it as a blow off tube, continue the fermentation as you would and try out the beer, i dont think anything weird would fall into the beer if its in a chest freezer,

I would make a 1l starter and help it continue its fermenting process thats going on right now, plus make brand new healthy yeast. After that store it and label it. Cheers bro!

you can do trial and error, keep taking the pressure up on each keg you carb to see how much difference it makes :o ! interesting

nice! yea i was thinking of getting the 1/2 male x 3/8 barb so i can use swivel nuts on the connections http://www.ebay.com/itm/301646309970?var=600506029000

will it make a difference is the tubing is bigger? im thinking of getting the 1/4 barb to 1/2 male npt to put swivel nuts on the hoses but im not sure if it would benefit the system to have 1/2 id hoses or i cna just go with a 1/4 id since the pump is also 10mm wide, so i dont think it would do...

What do you mean remove the stone? Thats the whole purpose of the system, pass the beer through the stone, im planning on doing a 1 hr run on the "diy quickcarb" and then put my corny lid with the aeration stone for the rest of the 23 hrs, hoping to get a perfectly carbonated beer in 1 day

thanks for the reply, i did think of that and ended up going with this, i noticed a review on the aeration system in amazon and i found the pump he used just need a ss elbow, ill let you guys know how it works!!! :mug: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01BWMR5UM/?tag=skimlinks_replacement-20...

So i stumbled on the quickcarb and was looking to do the DIY version, and i started thinking...i already have a carb lid with a stone, if i recirculate the beer by the gas IN, would this do the same effect? i have a chugger ss pump

very interesting thread, ill be waiting to see the final results, looks nice!!!

damn 3 day starter is way to much, most starters are done in 24-36 hours using a stir plate, without the OG i would just "assume" i did hit the target OG and take a gravity reading to see if fermentation was done, should be in the low 1.008-1.014, you should at least leave your beer fermenting...
