Sure, These are two CPU fans that I had laying around. They both operate at 12V so I soldered both of their power wires together and soldered that to a pair of wires that led to my enclosure. Currently they operate off of the 12V supply provided by the enclosure. They operate independent...

I'm sure someone with more xp can comment here, but as far as the warnings on the label, Starsan suggest rinsing for 15 min upon skin contact which freaked my brew partner and I out. after some more reading it was in undiluted form. What you are reading could be the same but I would double...

Drinking a Chocolate Oak Aged YETI from Great Divide Brewing Co. Good stuff! Still waiting on my first batch of Home brew!

OxyClean in a huge Rubbermaid container made for lighter work, but some of those labels took quite a bit of soaking. One in particular just wasn't softening at all even after 24+hours of soaking... I realized it was a plastic label... DOH!:cross: 3 cases and change worth of bottles... pretty...

Thank you guys. :)

The brewing chamber was a must as the wife will not allow the beer inside which left the garage as my only choice. Current ambient temp in garage is 90 degrees. The kit did come with about a half pound of specialty grains. Which I started steeping at 168 and removed after 20 minutes per the...

Had a great brew day yesterday where we brewed the Northern Brewer Caribou Slobber Kit. The brew went well, I think we hit all the numbers that we needed to. I have a couple of questions. First: The kit recommends fermenting between 65 and 75 degrees and I have set the chamber to 68...

Here is the front of the device, next to the controller will be LEDs for fan status and other indicators as needed.

Update on build.... I've installed the Love Temperature controller, I purchased the TSS2 and have wired it into a old External CD-ROM case. (I knew I saved those things for a good reason). Thanks to several threads on this site, wiring and programming the controller was a snap. There are...

I had a brewing mishap last weekend prior to pitching the yeast. I am using WLP0001 and had cracked the lid 24hrs prior and had it out a room temp following the instructions by my LHBS. I just put it back in the fridge and was wondering if it would still be good to use this weekend? While...

I setup dual fans to pull the coolest air from the fridge and create some airflow in the chamber. Here is a shot showing the size, I should be able to comfortably fit 3 bottles in here :)

All of the insulation attached and ready for the whiteboard. Here you can see the final enclosed chamber. On the left side will be the control panel and on the right I will create a cabinet for storing my brewing gear. I guess technically my daughter made the first beer...

I am just starting out with Homebrewing and needed a space to properly control the temperatures for fermentation. I cannot store any of my equipment in the house so the garage is the only option. My garage reached 100+ temps this week alone... I studied the builds on the site quite a lot and...
