    Best TV Comedy: Trailer Park Boys

    Absolutely love the show! Saw them live at the Red Robinson Show Theater just outside Vancouver. Funny as hell!!! All good things do come to an end though and I think they had a pretty good run.

    Got wood...

    Great information, thanks! One further question, an important one I guess...we'll be doing 10 gal batches, in your experience, how long to get a boil with the burners you've got? I'm assuming the difference between running them as HP or LP will be BTUs? We've been working on the stand all...

    Got wood...

    Catt, thanks for the reply. With regards to the tubing, we have a backup plan to insert 10mm rebar to increase rigidity if needed. Each keggle will have two cross beams for support. The keggles are 16" in diameter and to decrease the chance of charring, the gap between keggle and wood...

    Got wood...

    ...and we're building a brew rig! Finally!! It's going to be a three vessel HERMS system, complete with 58L keggles (one being only 50L). We're being careful to construct so as to avoid scorching the frame, and we're using 3/4" OD, .065" wall 316SS tubing as supports for the keggles. I"m...

    Wood Single tier brew stand

    Just as I'm getting ready to start planning my own wooden rig and I've got all this apprehension because I don't want to set the neighbourhood on fire...this thread pops up. Setup looks great! What are you using as cross beams? Is that angle iron? Are you brewing full 10 gallon batches and...

    My new brew system, a brutus 10 with some nice modifications

    Hi, I'm in the process of designing and pulling together a BOM for all materials that I will need for my Brutus 10 rig. I've determined that I'm going propane instead of electric and was just wondering if you had any feedback on your propane usage per brew session. I see you're brewing 10...

    Gas/Electric HERMS

    I suppose I could just use the element to maintain the mash temperatures and kick on the burner to raise to mashout temps. Trying my hardest to avoid the 50A breaker.

    Gas/Electric HERMS

    Th rig will be on casters and I'll always be brewing with the garage door open. What's the limit on element wattage on a 120V household circuit??

    Gas/Electric HERMS

    Wife won't let me brew on the stove anymore (just moved to a new house) but she's given me the go-ahead for the garage brewery I've wanted since I started brewing. Of course I've done lots of reading here, especially the DIY section on the HERMS/RIMS, electric/propane etc etc. Initially I...

    How good is your wine?

    Thinking about doing batch of wine but I don't want to produce ****e. I'm willing to spend a considerable amount on the right kit but wonder how it will compare to commercial wine? Thoughts and opinions?

    Travel in Vancouver

    +1 on Granville Island and the brewery. Great place, lots of things to do and see! If you're able, Grouse Mountain is a great summer attraction that will give you breathtaking views of the city and surrounding landscape.

    Kettle size...

    Thank you for all the replies, it seems like the general concensus is go big or go home. That being said, I'm probably going to be limited to stove top brewing for the next little while. Will I be able to brew with a 10g kettle on the stove if I'm only going to be doing extract/partial grain...
