I do, several, but the guitar is my favourite.

Welcome. Have to say, I grew up with the Wombles (at least from the show on telly in the late 70's, early 80's. The beginnings back in 68 were a couple of years before my time). Is that Wellington you have as your avatar?

Does this happen on all the AIO electric systems with extract? What about if it's just all DME? I'm guessing it's the LME that causes this sort of problem. Is the Digiboil worth the savings? While I like cheaper, I also would prefer to make sure I buy one of these systems and never need to buy...

Ok, so my wife doesn't like the smell of brew days and would prefer I didn't brew in the kitchen on the stove. I'm fine with that, but now I'm not sure what way to go. First off, I'm in Arizona, and most of the year it's really stupidly hot outside and I'd rather not be outside while brewing...

Wish it was low 80's here :D It's already been over 100 several times. Sounds like what I've got will work like yours then, which I'm glad about. Be great to have a fully maintained temp to work with instead of trying to make sure I find the coolest room at any given time. Homebrew 4 Life cold...

That's quite a nice cozie. I have already ordered my anvil jackets, so I'll see how they behave. I'm not unhappy with the current cost of the gear I just got to get this handled as I'm about done buying stuff now (yes I'm sure there's people now chuckling about that and thinking how wrong I am...

I'll look into this and return the anvil jackets if this works better. Thanks. Since you have done this too, any recommendation on a sleeping mat? Problem was the temp twister wouldn't fit without lid modification I don't think. If i could maybe bend the temp twister in/out pipes to fit through...

Most people have added all the things to get started already. I will say that if you're brewing 5 gallon or bigger batches, then don't waste your time on bottles, go straight to kegs (it's very simple, tastes better, and much much easier than bottling. I wish i'd done this right from the start...

ok, after another night of reading, watching videos and researching, I've ordered the following: 2 x 7.5 Gallon Bucket Fermenter Jacket: https://www.anvilbrewing.com/7-5-gallon-anvil-fermenter-jacket 2 x 12" thermowell: https://www.anvilbrewing.com/anvil-thermowell 2 x cooling coil...

Yup, 5 gallons every time. Ok, so with a cold crash out of the equation, that helps make life easier :) I'll just cold crash in the kegerator if I need to then. I can pull one of the kegs out for 24 hours, no worries. So do you think that I could use this set up to brew lager or am I stuck with...

Yeah, I had thought about this too. But it falls into the fridge department. I've got enough freezers/fridges for food already. Would prefer not to have any more. Hence the reason I started looking into the other options.

I don't know how many brewers here are in Phx, AZ area, but trying to get beer fermented at the right temp isn't the simplest thing. So I'm looking into picking up the following, but need some feedback on whether it's worth proceeding this route or not. Initially I was going to get a fridge, but...

This one by Delta has a steeper angle: https://www.deltabrewingsystems.com/products/fermtank-pro-series-8-gallon

Was just reading about the Flex+. That thing looks like a beast. Looks like I found my next FV for learning how to ferment under pressure. But I have a feeling it won't fit in my kegerator to cold crash if I have a keg in there. The Anvil does, just about. It's a very careful fit, but it does...

I don't think I've ever noticed this forum before. But if i'm not too late, then please consider me interested in giving these a shot too. Thank you.

I'm also an Anvil fan. I have two of the 7.5g FV's and couldn't be happier with them. I don't ferment under pressure (maybe something I might explore in the future), and I just ordered a lid upgrade so I can psuedo pressure transfer too. Not much different than what you're doing on yours AzOr...

ok that's something I have already. I'll start there. Thanks.

How would you connect the bike pump to the keg? That'd be a great work around too. I wouldn't mind having that as another backup option in case the power sprayer failed and it took another 4 months to get a new one.

oh yeah, that's cheap. So this will just screw on a soda bottle like a 2L coke bottle or something?

Ok, I've been waiting on this thing: https://www.morebeer.com/products/kegland-rechargeable-power-sprayer-33-oz.html forever (it feels like). I've got the little adapter for it, etc, all ready and waiting. So it's now been a few months since I ordered it and still not been shipped. I guess...
