I am also interested in the stir plate

I'm right there with you! I need to buy 3 sacks and just can't pay retail for all of that Sent from my DROID RAZR using Home Brew mobile app

Man I wish you lived in Chicago!

Put me next in line

Thank you for posting this Revvy. I wish I would have seen this prior to dumping a couple of my early batches. I recently fermented a couple of batches hot and was worried about them being ruined but I am going to be patient and give them lots of time. Thanks again!

Thanks for the info y'all. So PBW it is. I still probably need to sanitize the jaws before each use right? Could it hurt by just squirting some starsan solution onto them?

I'll probably hit it with some PBW and go ahead and spray some sanitizer on there. I've heard I should soak the corks and that I shouldn't. I haven't done any research on that yet but I will before I bottle. Thanks for the info

Nice. I don't know what box I am using but there is a video on youtube explaining the wiring process and I might just use the size that he uses. I think I want two outlets for hot and cold though to give myself the flexibility in the future. Here is the video:

I just bought a used Italian floor corker today and it is overall in really good shape but I am wondering about the cleanliness of the cork compression jaws. The whole unit came dusty, including the jaws and I guess the dust plus the lubricant combined to make it look pretty dirty. Assuming that...

Thanks for the info. I'm still learning. And Celsius is not a problem. I'll print off a chart for easy reference

Sweet. I think I have a firm understanding of this whole thing now. This may be a stupid question but how do I know which gauge to use for wire?

Both of those look good. I may wait for the review on the ebay one but I found the STC-1000 for $17.49 on Amazon. http://www.amazon.com/dp/B008KVCPH2/?tag=skimlinks_replacement-20 I am researching right now how to hook them up. I can't imagine it would be hard to set up but I have NO...

I am looking for a temp controller. Brand doesn't necessarily matter but I would like one that can be programmed to heating as well as cooling. The cheaper the better and local would be a plus but isn't required Thanks for looking :rockin:

Will do. As soon as I get the corker and bell I am going to do some tests. Sent from my DROID RAZR using Home Brew mobile app

Count me in!

That makes a lot of sense. Well I'm going to try to buy this thing and see how I might like it for bottling. If I don't like it, then I'll just keep my bench capper.

Why do you think you would hate it for bottling beer? Sent from my DROID RAZR using Home Brew mobile app

Looking for lots of wine bottles in the chicagoland area. I would prefer clear ones but any will work Also am looking for belgium bottles and swing tops but I need wine bottles ASAP Sent from my DROID RAZR using Home Brew mobile app

This is EXACTLY what I was looking for. Thank you! Its amazing how hard it is to find info on this. My LHBS had no idea about how the attachments worked or about the different sized caps. Thank you good sir Sent from my DROID RAZR using Home Brew mobile app

I talked to Austin Homebrew yesterday and they basically told me the same thing. They use different sized caps and thus capping bells. Thanks for the info Sent from my DROID RAZR using Home Brew mobile app
