Brewing my first Scottish Ale this weekend a Wee Heavy, and I am considering adding oak chips soaked in some Johnny Walker to the secondary. I brew 10 gallon batches on a HERMS system, anyone have any advice on the oak chips and Scotch? How much of each? I don't want it to be too overpowering...

By the way I plan to use these valves as well.

I have some experience with millivolt gas systems. A lot like using a 5v signal to trip a relay that controls a 220v heating element, you can use a relay to control a millivolt system. Your board will output a 5v signal when it wants to call for heat, which will trip a relay that would allow...

Awesome FAIL story!!

I have a spare keg I was thinking of doing the exact same thing with. Once upside down I wand to cut a hole in the shape of a corney keg lid to allow for easy cleaning an air lock and the ability to do c02 transfer. Anyone seen this?

Sweet stories! See that's what I'm talking about! I hope to get the stand that failed on here so we can all learn!! Oh... and pics please.. before and after if u have them!!

See...this is what I mean!! We will all learn more from the fails than the pretty brew rigs! Thanks for the share!! And we thank you for showing us what u missed!! We learn from out mistakes!! Nice rig by the way..

Sweet... for trade I have a first born male child... he real good at math.... alright I have a lil something left in the brewbank...

See this thread is already benefiting people... wait I need propane stuff... pm me!!

4 kids...need beer more now than ever!

Non fail! I like the proximity to the wash tub! Doesn't have to be pretty if it makes good beer!! Paint!??! Really!

For me time is money! With 4 kids now time is premium.... I'm going propane herms . Using uni-strut to build my stand I hope my system can grow/ change as my skills & $ change.

Way nicer than my current set up... (see above)

Now that's what I'm talking about. If you would have known... how much $ would you have saved!??!

I hope to get a pump for Christmas... and a coil for a HERMS system... as I plan to build a single tier system after the first of the year. With our 4th child being born a week ago mistakes are not an option as they can get costly, hence this thread.

That's sweet! Same as me. Needed three different levels for my set up so that's what I got!

I'm pretty sure I'm going the money saving route too but I'm going to use uni-strut. Its cheap, strong, and readily available. And there are a few great threads on here to go by.

OK.... my current set up. No stand equals a lot if heavy lifting.

Damn phone app.. it worked on my end! Well, fail #1
