    From a porch, comes a barrel?

    I'm having a hard time deciding if this guy's serious or not...?

    From a porch, comes a barrel?

    Pump wort directly from kettle to fermenter

    Should be fine. There are many threads on this forum with people using these little tan pumps. @augiedoggy . It'll only aerate if there is air in the lines. There will only be air in the lines if you didn't clear it or you have a leak at one of your connections.

    Arduino pH Meter

    Very interesting... http://rezaalihussain.blogspot.com/2014/04/measuring-ph-using-dormant-labs-ph.html https://www.tindie.com/products/rezahussain/dormant-labs-ph-module-v2/ Is this something you could put inline with your recirculation and have continuous pH monitoring?

    Texas Texas grains, Texas malt.

    Who carries your stuff? I know Texas Brewing Inc. did but they don't seem to have it on their web site.

    Anyone else decide to regress their brewing setup?

    I upgraded from a 2 vessel RIMS system to plain old single vessel biab and am happy with it.

    New Grounding Technique

    Found a new grounding technique, I can't believe I didn't think of this before! Genius! (Disclaimer: yeah, don't do this.)

    First time brewer...High Final Gravity?

    Also, what did you do to oxygenate the wort before pitching?

    First time brewer...High Final Gravity?

    In the future you can usually just skip the transfer to secondary step and let it sit in the primary for the whole 4 weeks instead. For the record meticulous cleaning and sanitizing, or lack thereof, wouldn't cause your stall. If anything if you were to not clean your gear and get an infection...

    Pressurized Fermentation - Spike Conical

    hmm This threw me for a moment too. I think what they mean is that at normal fermentation temps and at 10 psi that he wouldn't have fully carbonated his brew.

    50amp Extension Cord for 30amp Dryer Outlet?

    FYI I went to the Southwire website, the mfr of the cord I last linked above, and there they say the 10/4 is only good for 25A. I don't know what to tell ya. Can you find #8/4 cord? I suppose just running a new 220v circuit to your garage is a no go? You can find 10/4 30a dryer cords at the...

    Learning electric

    I started out in electronics with arduinos. Designed hardware and software for a bbq smoker controller back when the cheapest store bought option was like $400. I imagine getting zapped with 5vdc probably hurts a lot less than 220vac. Tons of resources out there on arduino projects. Was a good...

    50amp Extension Cord for 30amp Dryer Outlet?

    I just use SJOOW purchased by the foot at home depot. #10 is rated for 30a. https://www.homedepot.com/catalog/pdfImages/5f/5f7bc331-2dc9-430a-9478-3a391501eb6b.pdf [edit] oops, except for 10/4, it's rated for 25a. The 10/3 was rated at 30a [edit again] THIS 10/4 is rated at 30a...

    Pressurized Closed Loop Corny Keg Fermenting

    What about a hopback? Push your beer to a serving keg with an inline home water filter full of hops in between them?

    Pressurized Closed Loop Corny Keg Fermenting

    If you're dry hopping during active fermentation aren't you already getting agitation from the swirling of the fermentation itself?

    50amp Extension Cord for 30amp Dryer Outlet?

    Negative. That would be extremely dangerous. Not to sound like a dick but I'll leave you to think about that for a moment as to why that's a bad idea.

    50amp Extension Cord for 30amp Dryer Outlet?

    I would use 30a plugs. You wouldn't want someone to accidentally plug your 30a control panel into a 50a service unless the control panel was designed with the appropriate protection.
