My first grain mill - the Hullwrecker. I’ll try it out this weekend.

I lose 0.8 gal/hr in my kettle. Depends on the size of the kettle. I tested it a couple of times just boiling water and it seems pretty consistent and I have been hitting my target volume pretty well.

The Punisher is awesome!

Welcome! I’m in the Columbus area.

This looks interesting but I wonder how I would use a thermowell and an airlock too. I suppose I would need to cut a large enough hole for a stopper type thermowell.

Yeah I would really like to see some documentation on this thing. If it can raise the water to a certain temp, hold it, then raise to a boil later then that's all I need. I don't sparge so this looks like it might work for what I do.

I recently started doing small BIAB batches and will probably continue that way in the future. I've been looking at various electric systems so that I could do everything in the basement. Then I get a catalog in the mail yesterday and noticed the Gigawort. Does this seem like a good choice for...

I just bought a FermWrap along with an InkBird controller. It's working great to control the temperature in my cold basement.

Yeah I felt the same way. I haven't gotten too far and already lost interest. Started watching Alias Grace. Interesting so far.

You guys are scaring me. I'm planning on brewing a batch of winter ale this weekend and the kit came with S-04. This will be my 3rd batch of beer and 1st time using this yeast.

My first batch of beer! It’s finally ready to drink. I used the Caribou Slobber kit from NB. Really happy with this one. A little on the sweet side with a nice caramel, malty taste. Even my wife liked it, and she normally hates beer.

Most people seem to want to go to larger systems but I wish I would’ve planned small batches from the start. I have lots of stuff for 5 gallons batches but it takes me a long time to drink that much beer. I want more variety. A couple weeks ago I did my first BIAB - a small 1.5 gallon batch (no...

Really? That seems contradictory to what I have read. And the IBU's certainly drop on BeerSmith.

Disregard this. I think I have the answers I need.

I have some extract kits that I got on sale and am interested in only doing half at a time. I did a 5-gallon batch previously and it will take me forever to drink all of that, so I will be doing some smaller batches to have a little variety. I'm wondering about water volume and questioning if I...

Stranger Things S2 was pretty good. But they could have totally eliminated episode 7. I just wanted them to get over this little side trip and get on with the main story. And I just finished Mindhunter. As a fan of Criminal Minds I really liked it.

I'm really liking this show so far. But what's with the obnoxiously large location text? All of a sudden you have "Wichita Kansas" across the entire screen.

I'm pretty new at this and in a recent class given by two experienced mead makers, they said add some energizer & nutrient at the beginning, then add more & stir (de-gas) at 24 hours, 48 hours, and 72 hours. My first batch turned out tasting pretty good at just 3 weeks old. I just started a...

Just bottled a few days ago.
