    Goose island

    I would also argue that what is produced and sold as Goose Island Beer (yes, even at OHare) bears little resemblance to what you can get at the Goose Island Brewpub up north.

    Pre-Built Cheap Electric Brewstand Options?

    Has anyone ever tried what is commonly referred to as a Bakers Rack or Baker Scaffold? It's the type of scaffolding painters typically use inside of a house. I've seen them for under $200, they support quite a bit of weight, and they're about six feet x three feet. I had a bunch of equipment...

    Brewbot

    Those look to be nothing more than steam table trays with a seal on the lid...

    What do you use for RO water storage?

    Hes probably referring to the fact that you shuld not run RO water through copper as it will eventually destroy it. RO water is very aggressive when it come to household plumbing - the dispensers have to be RO dispensers, not just filtered water dispensers. I didn't know that until we remodeled...

    Group Buy in Chicago #9

    Where in Michigan? We're over there quite a bit, so delivery, or at least a 120 mile reduction in driving, might be possible.

    Stout Kettles/Electric Brewery

    I think standard is a thermowell without a thermometer. They emailed me the answer pretty quickly when I asked them, but the basic ports are effectively the same.

    High Gravity BIAB Electric Brewing System

    Not original - I copied and pasted from another site: If the range hood is attached to a wall, you should have 100 cubic feet per minute(cfm) per linear foot. So if you have a 30" wide range, you should have a hood rated at 250 cfm ((30/12)*100 =250). If the hood is over an island, you'll use...

    High Gravity BIAB Electric Brewing System

    Sorry, let me be more clear. I don't mean that you have to use a range hood, but rather size the blower as if you were sizing a range hood. For example, my range at home puts out a maximum of 120,000 btus across all burners. That dictates a hood that can draw 900cfm.

    High Gravity BIAB Electric Brewing System

    Wouldn't a better guideline be to size for a range hood? I think that would be based on BTU rather than air exchange.

    If I knew then what I know now

    Given that stout has distinct offerings for HLT, MLT, and brew pots, can you explain why you chose to use the "same" brew pot as the HLT? Redundancy, perhaps?

    This is the one sold at Home Depot in the Midwest.

    Help building my electic HLT?

    A 20a outlet has one plug that looks like a sideways T. It is designed to take either a 15a or a 20a plug. Normal plugs, like you see on most countertop appliances, are 15a plugs. A 20a plug has one vertical and be horizontal blade.

    Help building my electic HLT?

    That may have a 20a breaker, but that is a 15a GFCI outlet. If the building wire is 12 gauge, you can swap the outlet. Given the breaker, it had better be 12 gauge wire...

    Illinois All-Grain Equipment Collection

    I'm relatively new to the forums, but I find it funny that the rule about "must post prices" was brought up, but the rule right above it, the one about keeping comments to yourself about someone else's prices, hasn't been. Maybe both rules need to be enforced here. OP should put up his prices...
