    Bottle fillers

    I prefer ss over plastic where I can use it. Plastic has its issues. I just don’t know why they are even made if they don’t provide proper headspace. If the correct size exists, I’d like to get it.

    Bottle fillers

    I still bottle. I enjoy it. Just bought a stainless steel bottle filler off amazon. This thing is so fat that it leaves way too much headspace. Can’t use it. Anyone have any recommendations for a proper sized ss bottle filler? This is the one I got. Beer Bottle Filler,ProMaker Stainless Steel...

    Sudden strange efficiency issue

    Do you stir the mash every so often? I found that helped my efficiency quite a bit. Something I didn't know I should do until recently. Helps to keep a uniform heat, even with re circulation. Is your temp accurate? I thought those all in one systems pull easy 80%?

    Soapy taste in beer - almost solved - getting close

    If I missed this in your replies, I apologize. Was one fermented longer or at different temp? Here is a "soapy" explanation straight from John Palmer. "Soapy flavors can caused by not washing your glass very well, but they can also be produced by the fermentation conditions. If you leave the...

    Bottle Conditioning Issue

    Wanted to update anyone that was interested in my carbonation issue. It's weird. I wrote this question last Wednesday. I had tried my beer the night before and was very discouraged. The beer I tried went into the fridge Monday evening. After getting discouraged, I shook them pretty good and put...

    Bottle Conditioning Issue

    My first thought was because I cold crashed. I know the yeast go to sleep and sometimes have a hard time waking back up especially if they've been over worked. Still, over 5 weeks? Getting a bit frustrating. My next batch of Brown Ale is about to be ready to drink. Didn't cold crash that one...

    Bottle Conditioning Issue

    Hi all. Hope you might be able to give advise or help. I've had a Rye IPA bottle conditioning for 37 days now. It has partial carbonation. Very partial. Pop the cap and you hear a faint hiss. Barely any bubble to speak. Basically, flat still. It's been the same level of carbonation since week...

    Herms temp control

    I was looking at getting this which has ssr and heat sink with it but I don’t know about the temp probe or what to get to mount inline. Inkbird F Display PID Temperature Controllers Thermostat ITC-106VH, K Sensor, Heat Sink and Solid State Relay, 100ACV - 240ACV (ITC-106VH + 40A SSR + White...

    Herms temp control

    I’m a complete noob with this. I’m very lost. You guys were already a big help with a temp monitoring thing I was wanting to do. Hopefully you can help me again. I’ve just built a small mini HLT with herms coil specifically to control my mash temps. It will only be used for that. I have a...

    Temperature monitoring. No control

    Thanks a lot you guys. I’ll start looking. You’ve been a big help. Much appreciated.

    Temperature monitoring. No control

    Thank you. That’s an interesting option. Still surprised what I’m envisioning doesn’t exist. I guess that means no one wants what I’m envisioning. I think it could be a cheap to make item if one has the know how.

    Temperature monitoring. No control

    This may be a dumb question but.... Does anyone make a temp monitoring system? I’d like to just be able to plug in a 12v dc led display hooked up to a temp probe or up to 4 or 6 temp probes. I just want to see temperatures in my HLT, my MLT and perhaps even exits and entrances of wort during...
