    Stupid ex-beeriment with cider

    Don't let it kill it for her, commercial ciders is NOTHING like what you are about to drink. If you keg you can make a huge variety of ciders easily. You can ferment nice and dry, then kill the yeast, and back sweeten with real apple concentrate or juice to get more cider sweet flavor. You...

    Here goes nothing! First Brew on MLKJ Day! Wish me luck!

    Did you measure air temperature or wort fermentation temperature? If air temp was 70 your wort could have been up to 10 degree warmer. Fermentation causes heat, the plastic pale does a good job of keeping that heat in. If you notice a warm flavor or green apple taste, that might lead to too...

    Total Cover Keezer

    I do, but probably won't re-flash. Ive used the stc on my fermentation chamber for a while and haven't had an issue with using centigrade.

    Total Cover Keezer

    It cooled down fairly quick (to serving temp). The back got pretty warm so I'm sure the front and sides did also. Like I said there is about a 1" to 1.5" gap all around the front and sides. I left a 1" gap on the bottom so air can get in from the bottom and there is the air gap around the...

    Total Cover Keezer

    Trimmed it out, cut and then painted the vent for the compressor, and painted collar and lid. Put cheap styrofoam on the collar and lid, still need to tape the joints. After putting seal on lid and running it. Need to touch up some spots on the trim where I got too safe with the tape...

    I believe so, I felt some warmth on the back when it ran for just a few minutes.

    Total Cover Keezer

    So been hitting up CL for about 2 months and finally just gave up and bought a POS beat up chest freezer for 50$. Works great, just really ugly. I wanted to just go the route of paint black then put a collar on and call it a day. Well with it being so ugly I decided to cover it. Made a base...

    Why is my GFCI tripping with 1 of my 2 elements?

    Sounds like the GFI is working. Since you already isolated the issue, I would start checking the connections on the cord, connections, plugs, and outlets of that element. Then ohm out the element.

    Installing wall sockets for two 5500W heating elements

    Your question was kinda answered incorrect... The heating element is acutally pretty low resistance, not high resistance. The lower the resistance the faster the electrons travel through the load and pull more amperage and result in more heat. A 240V 5500Watt element is around 10.5 Ohms and...

    Using wood for a control box.. Smart or Dumb

    Why would you pull a permit? Your plugging a device into an outlet... An old wood tv is not most likely UL approved, has electrical components mounted in a wood box, and not "safe" to today's standards. If it burns your house down nothing can be said from your insurance company other than a...

    Broken keezer? Help??

    Is the compressor running? Buzzing and running aren't the same, could be as simple as a 5$ capacitor.

    How does BMC brew beer that has no flavor?

    Hmm, all hail Billy-Klubb, he's far more superior than the tens of millions of people who purchase BMC a day. Ill agree with that, but that's about it. There are plenty of things I don't like. I dislike way more craft beers than I do BMCs, but don't dis them on their efforts and hard...

    How does BMC brew beer that has no flavor?

    Use small amount of hops, and corn and rice to get gravity, and ferment dry. Not sure what else your looking for, they are low gravity, dry, low IBU, and clean lagers. You can do they same, but you will probably find out how good of a brewer and control you need to brew a BMC, and...

    I just made this pilsner but i added rice solids

    I'm not going to throw this off subject, but he was the one that asked what he was going to get from throwing stuff together. If I was brewing something I liked or my family liked, I wouldn't ask, "just did this what should I expect". I would be brewing something I knew that people would...
