    The OFFICIAL Low Oxygen Brewing Thread, AKA lodo, lowdo, LOB

    IRT Brewtan B, what if one doesn't whirlpool? Are there risks if it makes into your glass?

    Any one here play in APA league?

    American Poolplayers Association Any other members here? I joined a billiard forum but my god they are a bunch of whiny babies. Thought I'd see if anyone around here plays pool, you guys are nicer to talk to. I just joined up last session, it's a lot of fun. I find it is significantly...

    Texas Frisco, TX water supply

    Oh, well you're next door to yet another Kroger. I haven't been in that one but I'd bet it probably looks exactly like mine. The water dispenser in mine is in the same isle as the bottled water. I just roll in their with my carboys in a buggy and fill em up. And I know from experience that if...

    Texas Frisco, TX water supply

    I'm in the area, I use RO water from self service at Kroger on 423. I've never done a water report, we use the Wylie water table, you can find the monthly report online. I had a significant efficiency boost when I stopped using tap water.

    Cheap eBIAB Stand W/ Integrated Power Concept

    Okay, so let's say I'm contemplating the darkside and incorporating a RIMS tube. How do we feel about this wiring for a SINGLE relay to control TWO different elements (kettle @ 240v and RIMS @ 120v) and using a DPDT to select which element. What about circuit protection here? (obviously input...

    BrunDog 50A eRig - no HLT for me!

    I wonder if the process would be more conducive to us full volume biabers. I notice that the nozzles on your lok line are mostly pointed toward the kettle wall, could you reorient them to all spray directly up into the mash? Would it make a difference?

    BrunDog 50A eRig - no HLT for me!

    How are you priming the pump and getting the circulation started? (Edit) Oh wait, nvm I see. It's like a skimmer. This now comes to mind: http://www.clearbeerdraughtsystem.com/info.html

    Food grade grease

    Coconut oil is very flavorful. Do you mean just not in very tiny relative quantities? ... Might be a good thing though, I was drinking a tasty coconut porter last night. Good stuff.

    Food grade grease

    Keg lube is just for incidental food contact, right? I'd think probably not great for churning into the food. Thoughts?

    Testing the GFI on a spa panel

    I'm confused by your question. Is your estop wired up like pj diagrams? If so, that is designed to simulate a ground fault and trip the GFI. Does your GFI breaker itself not have a test button?

    If it's an issue you can put the signal on a low pass filter to smooth it out.

    BruControl: Brewery control & automation software

    What about using a ssvr? I just happened to have ordered the auber 0-5v control to play with. http://www.auberins.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=53&products_id=393 Unlike the crydom ssr you linked the auber ssvr is apparently limited to 90% of input. Though that shouldn't matter...

    Filtration

    While you're doing that the air is mixing with the co2, how do you know when you've pushed out enough air? How do you know when to stop to avoid wasting co2? When filling with a liquid and pushing back out you know you're using the exact correct amount of co2. Are you worried about wasting...
