    Thermometer suggestions

    So I managed to smash my floating glass thermometer that came with my starter kit. Accidentally set my chiller on it during clean up. I'm getting ready to start AG brewing and thought it would be nice to get a digital one with a probe so that I can monitor the mash from the outside of the...

    Stock pot question and general nrmew brewer question

    Pot Size-Assuming you are doing extract and only needing a partial boil a 5 gal pot is pretty common that is what I started with. If you want to move to all grain brewing you would want to think more along the lines of 7.5-10 gallons. But also keep in mind it has to fit your stove or where...

    To Keg Or Go All Grain First?

    The pot issue will for sure have to be addressed. I'm debating whether or not do this on the stove/will the stove be powerful enough to boil a full 5 gal batch? That means just buying the pot. Or I can use the pot from a turkey fryer setup. My main concern with turkey fryer is there are stairs...

    To Keg Or Go All Grain First?

    Currently brewing on a gas stove. It gets about 3.5 gallons going pretty good in maybe 30 min? I've never timed it to be sure. I'm not that anal yet about anything other than sanitation...yet. I have no garage but plenty of back yard to brew in.

    To Keg Or Go All Grain First?

    Well seeing as components are less expensive I'm thinking maybe the AG build will happen first while I look for sales or a good deal on CL on a freezer. I highly doubt however there will be much lag time between the two. Other thoughts are still welcome....

    To Keg Or Go All Grain First?

    I have done a half dozen extract batches and I'm all in and addicted. I've already built my own wort chiller that works damn well. Now i'm ready to keep going. I would like to both move to all grain and keg. All grain affords total control over what goes into the beer so that is a...

    Leftover grain suggestions

    After searching depending on your definition of things it is a partial mash not steeping. Just the single pot method with a paint strainer (I work for a paint store) for a grain bag similar to the pictures on one of the posts.
