I did all of the fab myself.. I have full machine and sheet metal shop. I did not calculate the material cost they were drop offs if recent jobs. I am sure it cost more than just buying one. But, I enjoy making everything I can. Plus it is always exactly what I want. 

From scratch. I am going to build a fermenter next. That one will take a little longer cuz I got to purge and weld the inside too.

Just finshed up my new brewpot.. 9gal 16ga 304ss I even put slots in the top flange to loop the hops bag on.. :ban:

What kinda flavor will you get if you do not get full conversion with flaked maize??

I am wondering if that was the problem with the last 2 batches I made. I only mashed for 60min no iodine test. I will have to go pick some up.

Only reason I asked because 840 recomended temp is 50 to 55.. Good luck

Why not go for 840 since you would be at lager temp anyway??

What temp did you mash at? My last 2 batches I mashed at 154-153 and don't taste near as good as my first batch, which was suppose to be at 153 but ended up at 151.

How did it come out?? I see you are drinking it right now.

I have made several varying recipes using the original as a guide line. I been grooming it into something beautiful. Problem now it is not that close to Yeugling Traditional anymore. It is a excellent beer anyway. But I must say the original recipe is real close. I have 2 more experimental...

What temp is it at, also what yeast? Another thing moving the bucket around or just bumping it when it is in its prime time really ticks it off.

Ended up going with Magnum 13.2% 0.500 oz Boil 1.000 hr Kent Goldings 5.4% 0.500 oz Boil 15.000 min Cascade 6.0% 0.500 oz Boil 5.000 min Cascade 6.0% 1.000 oz Boil 0.000 s But ended up with efficency issues starting gravity 1.042 was suppose to be 1.052. Its bubbling away...

I have done this my last 2 batches and notice nothing different in flavor. There was not much more at the bottom of the primary either.

Thats kind of like the SNPA schedule. with magnum for bittering Thanks

The current hops on hand. Maybe some others those are the one I know I have. lol Northern Brewer Magnum (German) East Kent Gold Simcoe Cascade Perle Willamette Cluster Mt. Hood Tettnanger Hallertau

This is the recipe I am going to try. I have the grain crushed and ready. I picked magnum for bittering 21.7 ibus worth. I am trying to decide what other hop would go nice with this one. I never tried victory malt before. Anyone have a suggestion?? Victory Brew Batch Size: 5.500 gal...

Nice Label!! :cool:

Also if sweetening is needed I sorbate it to stop all fermenting of the added sugars, and let it sit in the 2ndary for 2 days. Then sweeten to taste.

Mostly juice, Brown sugar, table sugar,or some with lt malt, nutrient, and yeast quanity of sugars depend on what gravity I am shooting for. My current batch right now is a 3gal batch with 2.5 apple juice .5 gal multi fruit juice 1.5# Light Brown sugar 2 tbsp of cinnamin 1/2 tsp of...
