    DIY Under Counter Kegerator Idea

    Hey All, I've got a half-baked idea, and figured I could throw my plans out and get some feedback and insight. The fiancé and I are about to begin remodeling the basement. I currently have a Sanyo 4912m that I converted into a two tap system and I love it. However, I'm wanting to put on a...

    Electric Brewing Upgrade

    Personally, I'd recommend going with a pre-bent coil. Stainless brewing has a variety of diameters available (http://www.stainlessbrewing.com/12-Coils_c_25.html). Granted you will pay more upfront, but from what I recall the cheapest 50' length of 1/2" stainless coil I could find was about $60...

    Temp control - Fermonster

    Strange, I also ferment in a fermonster in a mini fridge with nearly the same setup. I've never taken a reading internally to compare what my inkbird is showing on the outside... Kind of concerning! You wouldn't think the temperature difference between the two would be that dramatic. Logic would...

    Wort rocking and a rolling

    I've had a similar effect but it's confined to the sight glass on my boil kettle. Haven't had a ton of movement in the keggle itself. I'm no expert but 90% sounds pretty high for the boil? Are you using a 5500 watt element? I'm running a 4500 watt element and generally have mine at 60%, after...

    Show us your electric brewing rig

    The black portion in the photos is actually a large rubber mat from Lowes, it was marketed for oil changes for lawn mowers/ATVs. Underneath that is press and stick tile, I had hoped to epoxy the floor but was worried about adhesion with all the tile residue from the demo. Definitely have my fair...

    Show us your electric brewing rig

    Hey, thanks Kal! Not quiet as impressive as your basement transformation! I loved the ascetics of your brewery, so I wanted a similar gray industrial look. I did all the renovation work myself to save money, and that alone took several weeks. I'm hoping my Christmas present will be a utility...

    WTB Co2 Regulator

    Realizing that my kegerator won't suffice for force carbing, and all the beer I have on tap! Looking to get a budget regulator to add a tank in my spare fridge for force carbing. Prefer to have dual gauges, but open depending on price. Thanks!

    HERMS advice

    I've been racking my brain around the same question. I've also been dumping a couple gallons of room temp water in the HLT to bring temps down. However, I've been using RO water and rebuilding with salts per Kal's new instructions, so I'd rather not alter that mixture too much. I was just...

    Hosehead Brewery

    Hey thanks! It's been a labor of love over the last 6 months. A lot of compiling parts and searching for deals, followed by flipping that room which was an oversized closet in the basement. I've been meaning to do a brief build thread. Nonetheless, appreciate the kind words.

    Hosehead Brewery

    Just wanted to drop in for a quick plug for Hosehead. I've been running the older model that I flashed to have the new operating system and version of Elsinore. I've been having great luck running it on my e-HERMS. My first batch went remarkably well and I was able to keep my mash temperature...
