I'm in.

Great write-up, both here and in BYO, Pete. Kudos!

I think there is an upgrade available if you bought BS2 recently. Date is on the Beersmith.com site. Otherwise, yes... if you want it, you're buying it again. Discounted prices til the end of June as far as I recall. Cheers! Chris

As Tommy Chong once said, "Holy snapping ar$eh0les, Margaret...." Wow...

Again, not to hijack, but have you considered a powerline adapter like this ? Plug em in, sync them up and you'll have two utp ports in your shop, plus your WiFi signal is rebroadcast as well. Speeds up to 2000Mbps depending on the model you choose. Cheers! Chris

First of all, you have to remember that this is a gas we are talking about. It's not like you're trying to stuff 35 gallons of liquid into a 10 gallon container. The 25 gallons of gas is compressed and in solution with the beer. There is only 10 gallons of liquid in the keg. If you tried to...

Volumes of CO2 are the volume the gas would take up at 0 degrees celcius if it was removed from the beer. So, if you have a bunch of beer carbonated at 2.5 volumes of CO2 (say 10 litres for this example), there is 25 litres of CO2 dissolved in that 10 litres of beer. This will change with...

Hence the comment about how heavy it is. The enclosure alone must weigh a tonne. So this is a 3bbl, 120v, 10 element system? Having BruControl to manage that must be a godsend. You mentioned above that you had limits on electricity capacity but I missed the part about no 240v. Kudos on...

Wait.... Is that an armchair the door is leaning on in the 2nd picture? Holy crap!

Wow.... So that's what a brewery panel looks like..... I need to read up.

My wife and I love this beer. Just last evening I mused about trying to brew one just like this. One google search and this thread pops up. Appreciate all the notes here. Going to give this a try this weekend. Cheers!

Bad PT100?

Too cool..... [emoji41]

Brewing has happened. Real, honest to goodness brewing. [emoji4] The room isn't set up quite yet. I have to add shelving and get the fermentation fridge set up. Serving keeper is on the horizon as well. But there is enough done to allow for a brew day. Definitely wasn't without issues. First...

Heeeyyyy..... I have that same sink. ;-) Seriously, beauty system. Cheers! Chris

Brewstand was on the agenda for this weekend. Also, baseboard, door casing and paint. I used Kal's brewstand design. It went together very well. I got it, the vent hood endcaps and trim, and the sink spacer stained with a MinWax Walnut. SWMBO helped out with the colour choice and also did the...

Got quite a bit done this weekend. Suspended ceiling - check Flooring - check Sink - check Exhaust hood - check Didn't get a shot of that rehung.... Just go back a few posts and imagine the finished wall behind it. [emoji6] Will be building the bench next weekend, finishing up with...

Hey BrunDog, In a word.... yup. As you know, I'm starting my learning curve with BruControl. The information on brucontrol.com is pretty good, but for me there is quite a large jump from, "Here it is and you can build it." to, "Hey, look at my BruControl system. I built it myself!" The...

More stuff done. Drywall is up, taped & mudded, and painted. When I started this project, I knew I was not very good at the taping and mudding part. Oh, I had tried it before with mostly hilarious results. I had contemplated plying a friend with beer and getting him to help (well... do). But...
