5 gallons Simcoe Smash 4050

Their orders are fulfilled, if I am not mistaken, by Norther Brewer. NB (or their parent company) if I am not mistaken, has recently acquired two other smaller mail order brewstores, Adventures in Homebrewing, and the other one slips my feeble mind at the moment. Rumor has it that they closed...

I recently made a couple of changes (additions) that I am happy with.... 1) TILT -- Being able to constantly monitor the gravity as the beer ferments is fantastic....kinda takes the guesswork out of "is it done?" 2) Clear fermenter -- I had been using plastic buckets, but they are a couple of...

Welcome to Homebrew Talk. Get yourself a pint (or three or four) and get ready for a long read. https://www.homebrewtalk.com/threads/robobrew-brewzilla-discussion.681856/ Lon

By the description of the Barley Crusher, it says that a drill set at 500 rpm will do 6 lbs/minute. If my math is right, that means 1000 turns of the crank for 12 lbs of grain? How much force must be put on the handle to crush the grain? My shoulders are ok with the type of motion, but not...

A little background first. I am relatively new to All grain, having done only extracts until I got a smokin' deal on a Brewzilla. I have 6 batches done, and have been struggling with mash efficiency, some as low as 50%. I did a couple with grain from my not so LHBS (70 miles away), and the...

5.5 Gallons Mosaic Pale Ale 3794.5

TY

Mosaic IPA hitting the Brewzilla at 5am tomorrow...

Yeah, I cancelled my last grain order and got it from Morebeer. Had it at my door in three business days, cheaper to boot. I did just complete an order from NB, and the only reason I ordered from them is part of it was exclusive to them and Midwest supply and it was just replacing existing...

Do you have a link to the one you bought?

Yeah, that sucks.....

I have a quick question for those with the 3.1.1 and a jacket. How in the Sam Hill are you supposed to get that jacket on? If I had six hands, I could probably get it on there pretty easily, but the way they hide the seam under the recirc pipe makes it damn near impossible. Anyone have a good...

I brew indoors on my 3.1.1 by setting the unit up right in front of my stove and using the exhaust fan on the stove. It doesn't get all the steam, but gets enough to where it's not an issue. YMMV Lon

5.0 Gallons Single Hop Amarillo Pale Ale 3748.2

The first batch of JAOM was so good, had to make another, squeezed the oranges this time to see what it does.......5 gallons 221.7

Likely. The design of the coils probably has something to do with it. The low wattage-density thing is above my pay grade, but I think the coils have a lot more surface area than normal to avoid scorching, which might also help with heating with the larger surface area. Something that...

I brew on the 3.1.1 (110) and don't really see any downside to it. I set it up the night before to heat my strike water and have it ready when I am ready to start. The only waiting is for it to come up to a boil (never really timed it, but I sense 20-25 minutes), and I need that time for the...

1. Whirlpool arm not needed, but I like having it. I think that whirlpooling during chilling helps to cool the wort, no testing done or evidence, it just makes sense to me that it would. 2. I don't think a hop spider would be needed as the false bottom catches almost all of the hop matter, at...
