    Ss Brewing or MegaPot

    I apologize for being off topic. I'm looking at 15 gal brew kettles as well and Spike is on the list I've narrowed down (Ss Brewtech & MegaPot are other 2) What ports do you have on your kettle and are they all TC or did you opt for NPT? I'm just getting into biab from extract so don't quite...

    BIAB Brew Kettle suggestions needed

    I've been extract brewing 5 gal batches for 10+ years and now I want to start brewing BIAB & have 2 all grain kits on order. I only have a 5 gal pot with propane burner and need to upgrade to a 10-15 gallon vessle. I contacted the HBS & rep suggested that a 10 gal kettle would work but 14 gal...

    Cold crashing in glass carboy

    It's glass not plastic. I've decided to transfer to keg, then cold crash.

    Is the FermaZilla pressure building kit considered a unitank? I don't want to get extravagant, just want a nice brew

    Could cold crash in keg with a floating dip tube. Better option. So, there won't be issues in keg being sealed with cold crashing?

    Cold crashing in glass carboy

    True, but I could size up starting from adding tube to top of orange cap, then add a larger tube for other half of that.

    I already have one of those. But the ID will be smaller so i'll need to use a longer hose than 4', right? The orange cap is what I'll be using for my transfer.

    Cold crashing in glass carboy

    I was thinking about that but If i did this, then I wouldn't be able to use my thermowell for temp control. This has been one of the reasons for using my chest freezer. Guess, I could just tape probe on carboy like I've seen.

    Not at all.

    Cold crashing in glass carboy

    It's as closed as it can get with a stopper & airlock. The will be air that was already inside tube. After I remove that, it's open so I guess what's the point of having a closed transfer after cold crash? I'll need to measure once stopper's out. ID looks wider than 1", could be wrong...

    It started fermenting at around 66F-67F.

    Cold crashing in glass carboy

    Think my id is about 2". Wouldn't that still suck O2?

    Cold crashing in glass carboy

    Will need to think any that one.🤔 Anyway, anticipating a cold crash, the temp was down to 54F. Hope I didn't spoil it. I'm having it increase back to where it was at 66F.

    Agreed.

    Cold crashing in glass carboy

    Maybe for my next batch. But for my carboy, i won't exceed more than 2 psi. Don't care to risk it cracking.

    Cold crashing in glass carboy

    It's been almost 3 weeks so, yes, I would say so. It usually takes a week for it to finish. This is the longest time is had it in carboy without transferring.

    Cold crashing in glass carboy

    It'll be a 30 mile commute for a milar baloon. I can always postpone the crash until I get something like that
