    New e-brewery

    Brewhardware delivered. Started cutting out my keg bottom last night. Just ordered temp controller, probe, SSR, and heat sink off Amazon to be delivered Friday. Going to stop by Home Depot and get a Homer box for my first control 'panel'! Kevin

    New e-brewery

    First purchase made yesterday from brewhardware.com! My kettle will be a bottom drain, 5500W keggle! I've decided to start cheap w a bare bones PID right now, and we'll see where this rabbit hole takes me in the future! K

    240v eKeggle BIAB

    What are the two switches? I assume 1 is main power, and the other is a switch for your pump? Thanks! Kevin

    New e-brewery

    Like half of the people who start a threads here, I'm looking for help and clarification! (My next post will hopefully be the other half who posts pictures of their builds!) So I'm torn... Brew-Boss? BCS? PID? My goal is to start eBIAB and possibly expand to a 3V, e-HERMS. I...

    Temperature/humidity sterilizing?

    I'm going to be doing a deep dive on all of my fermenters and REALLY getting them clean, and insuring they're sanitized. I always clean them and sanitize w/ iodine, but I've got some barrel aged sours in the brewery now, and want to make extra sure that everything is good to go. I work for...

    Through the wall 3 tap hidden keezer build -Done

    This is 99% of what I am going to do! Well done! I was planning on one fan at the bottom of the return line in the freezer. I figured that would circulate air in the freezer and pull air through the insulated box. My tap box is just going to be sealed foam board. Nothing around the...

    Kegerator died - advice on keezer

    Now that my third hand-me-down fridge died on me (all freezer on top, fridge on bottom), I'm debating what I'm going to do now. Thinking of buying a new chest freezer for a keezer, and second for the family freezer. I always just used the fridge portion for beer (5 kegs serving, w/ 1 on...

    New Kegerator build

    My old kegerator is on its last leg, so thanks to some friends of mine I have a GE TBX25Z in my garage that I'll be drilling in to. This is a standard, freezer on top fridge from likely the mid-late eighties. Does anyone know if there are any refrigerant lines in the side walls of this...

    Serving Homebrew at a Wedding

    I did 5 beers for a friend's wedding a few years back. I had them resting in ice buckets, and served from cobra taps behind the standard bar that they had. Didn't look as cool as pulling from the taps, but no one said anything about the presentation, just tons of complements on the beers! K

    Rio concentrates and Maltodextrin

    Party was a success. Not a whole lot of soda drank, so more for me! I'm loving the root beer, cream soda, and black cherry. K

    Rio concentrates and Maltodextrin

    I've mixed all 7 syrup, and I've tried 5 of them. Still have orange and blue raspberry to try. I mixed without any maltodextrin. I think that they're all good, but the rootbeer could probably use some thickening, and maybe a little on the cream soda. I don't think the kids will...

    Rio concentrates and Maltodextrin

    I discovered and read the thread on syrups a few weeks ago when my wife decided that we were going to have 20 or so kids over for my daughter's birthday party and she wanted different, colorful soda's for the kids. She created a monster! I've got 7 flavors that I'm itching to mix up for the...

    Frosty freezer in kegerator

    I've got a standard upright refrigerator that I converted many years ago to a kegerator. 4 taps out the side, and I was golden. Fast forward to today, I sealed off the 4 taps on the side, bored two large holes in the other side, and ran beer line through one hole into an insulated box, and...

    Is this meant for making beer?

    Unmalted. Can he use it w/ some 6-row and let the extra enzymes from the 6-row convert for him? K

    My basement bar

    Finally finished. I built lighted liquor shelves and added lights above the cabinets and here's the tap area. I need to work on threading the inserts in straighter! Good times were had by all at our bar opening party a few weekends ago! Kevin

    To those that have incorporated Urinals...

    A urinal is on my shortlist once my basement brewery is in place. Bar opening party is this weekend, but the brewery is still the garage. I was thinking of just plumbing the drain into my sump, which is quite active (ie, it pumps at least twice an hour, and pumps into a storm drain not my...

    Custom illuminated liquor shelf

    I'm getting ready to build a liquor shelf as well. Where did you get the LEDs? I'm thinking about using the Ikea Dioders. Kevin
