Over $7,500 dollars worth of meticulously maintained equipment hitting the dumpster tomorrow. Had it marked down to $750 on Facebook marketplace and still no takers. Has the interest in brewing declined to this level or do I have equipment that just doesn’t fit the needs of today’s brewers? I...

Price reduced to $2,500

I will reduce to $3,000. There is over $8,000 worth in this sale if bought new. Very meticulously maintained.

I used heavy duty plastic wall anchors.

Yes. Mounted the pvc directly to the table support members with a screw. Then mounted the pumps to the pvc.

This is a piece of PVC 1x5 trim mounted underneath and the pumps screw into the PVC.

I’ll try and take some pictures tomorrow and post. Thanks to everyone for the kind post.

I thought I would share my completed brew room. K-Rims setup with Worthog controller ( I like this setup for those who are getting ready to tell about me all the negatives). I brewed for a year before hanging the drywall and tile. Glad I did because I got a chance to add in electrical outlets...

I have tried both rims tube and k-rims on mine as well as using a herms running through my plate chiller. I have two 20 gallon Blichman G2 kettles and two riptides. Mostly I’ll use the k-rims because I like to do15 gallon batches. Usually my volumes at mash will exceed 20 gallons and the k-rims...

I do exactly the same as Beholder with the exception being I haven't needed rice hulls (yet). I also, in addition to the false bottom, use a bag in the mash tun to make for easier cleanup.

TexasWine, I think I'm going to give this a try. Are you putting the PID temp probe after the "wort out" of the chiller before it returns back into the mash tun? I am going to try with my Blichmann Thermanator. Thanks

I tightened up all the connections before I originally dunked the regulator in water. Like an earlier poster said, the air from the gauges was just air displacement from the gauge itself. I should realized that at the time but I didn’t. Anyway I hooked it back up and. It’s not leaking. So the...

Not leaking any more. As much common sense as I THINK I have(maybe not); I’m embarrassed say that I believe it was just air in the gauge purging out.

Connection at the cylinder is solid with no leak. I’ll try again and leave dunked long enough to confirm it’s no just air displacement in the gauges.

I have a single gauge c02 regulator setup that has the pressure regulator and a tank volume gauge. I lost a whole 5 lb tank of c02 the last time I used it. Today I hooked up the regulator to a c02 tank and dunked the whole regulator in a 5 gallon bucket of Starsan in an attempt to try and find...

In a Kettle-Rims set up, there needs to be enough water in the boil kettle to at least cover the heating element. In an “infinity loop” recirculating between the two kettles, my understanding from reading this thread is that you might NOT filter all the wort through the grain bed thus leading to...

Could the cloudy wort issue here not be solved by moving the water in the BK over to the MT at the end of the mash? That way the entire volume would pass through the grain bed one final time as it's all pumped back over to the BK. Maybe even just recirculate the entire volume at the end of the mash.

I see the answer in post #12; the mash side.

I have an almost identical setup but not using an external heat exchanger. I have a Blichmann Thermonater that I use for chilling so it would be very simple for me to add this in as an external heat exchanger. Where do you put your temperature probe for your pid controller in this setup...
