    Space effective fermentation Chamber cooling?

    I'm with kombat on this one after reading his comment. I have 4 mini fridges. I use 2 as chambers, one for ales and one for lagers. The other 2 I use as serving/carbing fridges. One I converted to a kegerator. I got 3 on kijiji, and the other was donated by a neighbour when he moved. Look for...

    Space effective fermentation Chamber cooling?

    Squirrel?? Where??? Short on time so I'll go for it as short as possible. Using mini fridge to cool a larger space probably won't cut it. You'll probably burn out the motor in short order. The chiller coil/plate is designed to cool the small space of those fridges. if money is no problem, I'd...

    8’ beer line maintenance question

    I clean a keg and a line at the same time. Then I use CO2 to push the starsan out through the line until empty. I use about a gal of diluted starsan mix to finish. Then pop the keg and turn it upside down to dry.

    Flaked Barley

    Does flaked barley need to be run through the mill? First time using it and my LHBS sells it as what looks like whole barley. Almost like whole oats. Any advice?

    Beginner Beer, and my infections

    I'll add my two cents. I have been brewing in some form or another for 20 years +/-. One thing I learned early on... PATIENTS! !!!! Stop opening up the fermenter! Try this, leave it alone for 7-10 days don't open it, move it, tap it, turn it or jiggle it. And do not, brew with dogs around. I...

    8’ beer line maintenance question

    Correct. The man says "flush clean as above between keg changes and when you empty a keg". Otherwise your fine. I use a 1gal weak mix of PBW in a keg up for cleaning. Fire that under pressure through your line. Then a starsan run, and let it empty out and blow air for a min or so. When I hook...

    8’ beer line maintenance question

    Are the lines going to remain under pressure when not in use (I. E. During the week)? And are you using CO2 to carb and pressurize? If so, can leave them alone, if not you'll need to flush the line with water/mild solution of cleaner and then sanitizer after disconnecting, IMO. My cousin works...

    DIY stir plate Question

    How far are the magnets from the inside of the lid? They should be only about a millimeter. When the top is on. Also. It's hard to tell, but the stir bar looks shorter than the distance that the magnets are apart, but the could just be refraction I guess.

    Take them out of the fridge. Once the dough reaches room temp they will rise.
