5/8 should be the hose not the copper. Mine is 3/8 copper inside 5/8 hose. I have seen using a 6" diameter piece of pvc with the copper wound inside and the water enters and exits through the end caps.

Get a list of his equipment. You can do all grain for pretty cheap if you build some of your own stuff. Also there is always someone selling their rig on CL. Post what he is selling you and someone will tell you if it's a good deal.

PM me if you are interested. Have a brand new one still in the bag.

I draw from my keggle w/ a cfc to my fermenter (another keg). I use a 5 gallon paint strainer over the mouth out the keg to filter out as much crap as possible. I use a similar set up for hop additions in the boil.

I am currently in the middle of a brew day. 4 hours to be exact. I use a direct fire RIMS and experienced my first stuck mash today. Holy S that was terrible. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. Won't brew without them again. Today sucks and I only hope my brew isn't ruined.

Yes. Should I make a 60 min addition? I harp buy more hops so I have 5oz of simcoe and 6 oz of Amarillo.

HUGE HELP! Thanks

Do you pump the hlt into the mlt through the kettle valve or the rims tube?

I just can't find a simple answer. I have almost completed my single tier brewstand with a direct fire RIMS. (I will post the build when it is done ) How do you sparge with a RIMS? I have figured I would use the total water amount for mash and sparge and just up the temps after the inital mash...

Terry did in fact contact me promptly. I wasn't too thrilled with his revised shipping so I thanked him for his offer and quick response and bought my stuff elsewhere. Like I said at the top the thread, I have no issues or complaints with them, I just wanted to hear other members experiences...

Has anyone had any issues with these people? I went to purchase a few small items; coupler, valve, and some hose and was quoted over $50 shipping for ground freight! Doesn't seem right to me. I would like to hear some positive experiences before I pass judgment.

Interested if you still have it.

I brewed a double IPA last week with a starting gravity of 1.75 I pitched a wyeast American Ale yeast that has been in the closet for 6 months. I did not use a starter. It has been 7 days and the gravity is @ 1.55. This seams too slow. I am a little concerned about mold. I have another IPA that...

I brewed a Midwest Supplies Simcoe Select IPA (All Grain) on Sunday. The Smack Pack I received with the kit was already swollen when I took it out of the box to "activate" it. I decided to cut the bag open, pour the yeast into a sterilized glass bowl, cut the nutrient bag inside, pour it into...

Racked the IPA to the keg, filled the 6 gallon BB with hot water to soak the krausen, cover the top with a rag, and walked away. I later found the rag sucked halfway into the BB and the entire transition from the sides to the neck had flattened out completely. I'll try to post a pic but I think...
