Subbed, Love watching these stories unfold!

Great job on the vids so far.

I steep my grains at 160 - 163 with no issues at all. I believe 170 is the magic number to avoid. Make sure that the water you are testing is thoroughly stirred as you might be measuring a hotter or cooler spot depending on where you put the temp probe.

There are just soooo many unpleasant thoughts rolling around in my head right now.

Fantastic Post. Gotta say this is 100% accurate. #11 is kicking my ass.

I wouldn't touch this for any reason (not even to take a hydromter reading) until it has sat in primary for three weeks minimum. Patience is key.

+1 to what everyone else is saying here. Everything I brew sits minimum three weeks in primary. Most times it's sitting for four. This will be when I take my second hydrometer reading (the 1st was to get the OG). Been bottling at four weeks but haven't brewed anything that required secondary...

I gotta say it seems more like something is amiss elsewhere besides the temps. Been bottling and storing in my basement which averages low 60's and have no issues whatsoever with carbonation. I'm busting them out and drinking after two weeks. Three is even better.

This is a must have thread for photos! Subscribed :)

Congrats! I just got started myself a month+ ago and can tell you that the addiction only gets worse!

Another vote for BeerSmith. It has everything you will ever need as an AG Brewer.

It took me a few minutes to find the damned "start a new thread" button. I'm truly ****faced and apologize if I offended anyone. I really like HBT and respect quite a few members. My wife pissed me off tonight. **** you. That is all. Christ I hope I'm inn the "it don't matter they...

I only say this with the utmost of kindness and love... **** you.

Dude. Seriously? WTF? No.

37 Seconds. But then I'm ****faced and it took me that long to find the pause key. I'm going back for more.

Thanks so much for the responses Peter! May you have many hoppy evenings with your new Keezer!

Wow! Awesome job showing us the build and it looks beautiful! Can I ask the make/model of the freezer you picked up? I didn't think 7 c.f. would manage to fit 4 cornies :)

Wasn't trying to rush ya. I love watching a build in progress, that and it helps me refine my decisions as to what I'll do when it's finally my turn. This was more of a way to prod ya to post pictures and get my subscribed to the thread :)

Start posting pics of the build :)
