    Pitching Temp

    I use a pre chiller. My ground water in the summer is in the high 70's. I think I am going to use it this winter even though the water temp will drop to the low 60's. As Pie Man said the last 10 degrees are a bugger.

    Hopping varieties and grain roasting questions

    Here is some good info regarding home roasting malts http://barleypopmaker.info/2009/12/08/home-roasting-your-malts/ I haven't tried this yet, but it will be my next project. Good luck with your "mystery hop beer"

    Denny's Rye IPA/choosing hops

    Wow, I just printed out this recipe from Beersmith yesterday. I have been wanting to brew a rye beer for a while now, and it looks like I will be brewing this on Sunday (10-28). To answer your question, being an uneducated guess, is if you wanted to compliment a spicy malt you wouldn't want to...

    New to the brew Cincy!

    You moved from the east side to the west side?? YOU ARE DEAD TO ME! Just kidding. Paradise is a great place. I was in there one Friday just waiting my turn and John was consulting a customer on what kit to buy and this gentelman said his wife is a big hop head. So John comes back with two...

    Pre-Heating Mash Tun?

    +1 what tally said. I have the same cooler and heat my strike water higher to compensate for a room temp mash tun. I only lost a degree over an hour this last Sunday. My only advice is to not open the lid once you start mashing to take another temp reading. Let it go for an hour and then see...

    Theories needed:temp controlled chest freezer causing head space to fill and overflow

    I think I might be able to help. I was in the same boat as you. Although I don't have krausen coming out of the airlock (fermcap, love it) I have had a persistent banana fruity ester flavor in my beer that I am not a fan of. I have a chest freezer with the same 2 stage ranco controller as you...

    CPVC Manifold Issues

    Slide the pieces onto a wooden dowel rod the same size as the interior of the pipe. I think I still had to clean up the cuts with a utility knife, but it wasn't too bad.

    vonZwicky's Mill Build

    Very nice work. I'm bumping this thread because it looks like you have the same (very similar) motor and the same drum switch that I have. I'm not the most mechanically inclined, and can not for the life of me figure out how to wire this thing up. Could you please post a wiring diagram...

    Cincinnati City Water

    Try www.cincinnati-oh.gov/gcww/ Under Quick Links click on "Water Quality Report". There is some good info on there. I live just inside Clermont County and I printed out their report, but have not had a chance to analyse it yet. Like you, my next brew will be my first AG. I will just use tap...

    Using a muslin bag. Any tips?

    Also, don't put the irish moss in a bag. Just throw it in the boil with 15-20 minutes left.

    Cigarettes Thread

    lschiavo and frunkasduck - a great resource is ryomagazine.com There are great reviews on tobacco/tubes/machines etc. lschiavo, do yourself a favor and get a crank style injector (the Gizeh is a slide I assume?) The Premier Supermatic and the Top-O-Matic are both all metal stout machines...
