    Anvil pump (or another pump) controlled by a Speed Adjuster

    Thank you. I figured there had to be a reason why people aren't using potentiometers with these pumps.

    Anvil pump (or another pump) controlled by a Speed Adjuster

    https://www.amazon.com/iPower-GLFANXCONTROLMAX-Variable-Adjuster-Controls/dp/B07P6NVNNT I'm curious if anyone has used something like the above to control the flow on a pump. It seems like a better option that restricting the output.

    using gelatin

    Can someone explain why the gelatin needs to be mixed with water before it goes into the keg to clear the beer? I ask because I recently made a nice IPA and I just put 1tsp of the powder in the keg before pressure transferring from the secondary. I'm wondering if that's why my beer is...

    BIAB Steam Mitigation

    Has anyone tried this with an all in one system? (Brewzilla 35L in my case) I was thinking about buying a lid like this (Homebrew Outpost - Homebrewing and Winemaking Supplies) . Attaching a 1.5" TC fitting to the top hole seems like the easiest idea but the suggestion has been to install the...

    Robobrew regrets?

    Round 6 and I just don't think it's possible to improve efficiency. I've attached the recipe if anyone wants to look it over. I've adjusted the water chemistry by testing my water and adding as necessary to get mash PH at 5.4PH as well as adding Epsom Salt, Gypsum and Calcium Chloride. I've...

    WTB Aquarium Chiller

    What do you think of something like this? https://www.ebay.com/itm/Aquarium-Adjustable-Thermostat-Chiller-300W-Cooling-Fish-Tank-100L-Chiller/223864038261 I'm looking for a cheap chiller myself.

    New York Like New - Spike CF5 Conical Fermenter

    I really thought the CF5 came with a thermowell so I didn't order one. It arrived with the thermometer which apparently is NOT a thermometer screwed into a thermowell. At least the one they sent me seems to be a single unit that doesn't come apart...really sucks that I now have to go spent...

    New York Like New - Spike CF5 Conical Fermenter

    I can't believe this listing popped up a DAY AFTER I gave up on finding it used and bought a new one from Spike. I posted on the wanted thread for this exact item weeks ago! That said, after spending $1200 on a new one, I still need the thermowell and the jacket. I live in NY as well but I'm...

    Where to purchase Glycol...now

    Thank you for looking into it. I'm trying to build a chiller using a fridge I got for cheap.

    Where to purchase Glycol...now

    https://www.walmart.com/ip/Super-Tech-RV-Marine-Antifreeze/17179674 Can this type of glycol be used? It's premixed but it's MUCH cheaper.

    Brewzilla 35L or 65L

    Brewfather tells me I should have 6.09 gallons of mash water and 2.5 gallons of sparge water. Does anyone know why Brewfather is reporting measurements that contradict the norms? According to Sparge Water Calculator | MoreBeer I should be 4.3 gallons of Mash water and 4 gallons of sparge water...

    Transfer from fermzilla

    I cold crashed but only to about 56F because my cooling system needed some upgrades. When I started transferring under pressure (12psi using a CO2 tank to hold pressure) the bottom jar which was previously full of trub suddenly broke loose and my nice clear wort became a mixed mess. Do you...

    Robobrew regrets?

    So I just watched this video and I noticed that he had time to talk a minute or so and the water was STILL above the grain line when pulling the grain basket. That's 100% not the case for me and the grain milling may very well have something to do with it. When I'm picking out the grain...

    Robobrew regrets?

    Thank you. When it does finally arrive, what spacing would you recommend for the brewzilla 35L? Do different grains need to be grinder at a different thickness?

    Robobrew regrets?

    I'd really like to see a video of someone actually getting higher efficiency on this brewzilla 35L. Video the entire process so I can see what the heck I'm doing wrong.
  20. Fidelity101

    Robobrew regrets?

    My efficiency this time was 59%. It's so crazy that I'm getting 59% no matter how much effort I put into this. Back when I just stirred in the grains at 149F for 60 minutes and then pulling them out and sparged with 172F water I was getting 59% efficiency. Now that I'm bringing the mash up to...
