Points taken! I'll have spacers soldered, and play around with the pressure and the air shutters.. I'm VERY new to all of this, and will learn the hard way (and judging by my burnt eyelashes, VERY hard way) haha, thanks!

Well I finally got my manifold setup and the burners connected, tested all 3 of them without the kegs and they worked fine. Problem started when I tested one with the keg on top, the burner started shooting flames out of the oxygen intake and well, it just didn't work.. I had to raise the kegs...

haha, I know that the top wont last with the fire and all, made it clear to my friend who powder coated it, "well, we'll paint it again!" is all he said, so I'm not worried at all! strat_thru_marshall: Thank you for the design! Will def. take lots of pictures once I mount the burners and fire...

Thanks, you guys! hopefully the water will be cold enough; I'll do a test run with water, if not, i'll run the water through my copper chiller on ice first, that should do the trick!

So finally got back my stand after powder coating, here it is: Friend of mine did the coating, I just received my (3) 6" burners from agrisupply, manifold will be built tomorrow, FIRST ALL GRAIN brewing session scheduled for this saturday, Orfy's Hobgoblin II. I still haven't...

I made this 3 weeks ago, somehow got 1.064 OG, ended at 1.020, figured it's done, it's been cold crashing for a few days now, will keg tomorrow, last sample tasted GREAT! A little sweet perhaps, but great!

npauley88: Do you mind posting pictures of the burners running as they are now? I just ordered 3 of these for my rig and want to know what to expect.. Thanks!

I looked into all the options for a FB, I was between a Sabco and jaybirds, I was looking for 15" so they were both priced pretty much the same... I'll give the Oxo a try for now but I have no doubt that I'll get a "real" one after a few batches as well... Thx!

well, considering I was about to spend 100 bucks for a sabco FB, this cost me 20, so I guess it is worth a try, I'll let you guys know in 2 weeks once my place chiller arrives!

Hey, I was about to order a false bottom this week but I found exactly what you posted: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0007VO0DU/?tag=skimlinks_replacement-20 At frys electronics of all placed, bout it and will adapt it as soon as I can, can you tell me how it worked for you? If it didn't I'll...

At what point are you filtering your beer? If I remember correctly you even filtered the jucundus at your anniversary last week, or maybe I'd had way too many glasses by the time I got to that one. Great beer, great party, will be going back as soon as my growler is empty. Greetings from...

I buy everything in ballas point right now, will start buying online as soon as I finish my rig, hopefully I'll save a few bucks.

I live in Tijuana Mexico, bought it locally for about 90 bucks for 60'.

First of all, thanks to strat_thru_marshall for helping me out with his stand diagram. Bought the tube last week, had it soldered and received it today, here's how it looks as it is now: Will get it powder coated in Chrome Black (hopefully they have it) this weekend. I received my...

I understand that Jaybird is part of the homebretalk "family" if you will, but honestly, what advantages are there from his 15" to Sabco's? Sabco just seems better quality.. Why should I buy from JB? I WANT to be convinced since I also support small business owners whenever I can, I just want...

I'm looking for a FB for my sanke mash tun conversion and although I've read a ton of posts, I'm still not sure what to buy! What size should I get? What is the difference if I use a 10" a 12" or a full 15"? For 12" I've looked at jaybirds and the ABT one, is 15" really worth the price...

Well hello there neighbor! Will be doing gravity transfers at first but most definitely will move to pump within a couple of months, took a look at BF and will order the keg weldless bulkhead kit (x3) with the 3 piece valve, I just think it looks nicer :D is there a difference if I pump? Thanks!

So I have my kegs ready to convert, the thermometer and the sight glass are no problem, what I'm having trouble with is which valves to use? What size should they be? What are the pro's and cons from regular and 3 piece (which I like) I'm also trying to do this weldless.. Any tips?

Yes, I did boil the sugar with a little water, and what I measured as 3/4 of a cup was the syrup that resulted.. I will try the beer this weekend to see if anything has changed and will let you know! Thx

I used 3/4 of a cup for 5 gallons.. I will put one in the fridge and give the rest some time... I bottled my porter yesterday with the same quantity, I hadn't heard that anything other than corn sugar would thin it out and thought that brown sugar might work well with dark beers, I've a...
