I have a 15 gallon Megapot 1.2 and a Blichmann Breweasy setup. I like both brands a lot, but I think after dealing with weldless fittings I would opt for a welded pot. I know there are some different brands out there, but spike would be my personal selection. I've never done any business with...

It looks like a nice product, but $210 seems excessive. Does it look like it's a product that will last a long time HeFed?

I've toured the brewery as well, and was jealous of every person working there! Congrats!

Nice write up. That unit looks very cool.

Thanks for the idea Cranyx. I just received my stuff from stainless brewing and I'm looking forward to trying the setup out. Looks like it will work great.

I had similar issues to Gavin at first. But I'm a dolt and caught myself lifting it by the hopper a couple of times. I just loosened the screws, pushed the hopper back down, retightened and have had zero issues since. I agree with other posters that a small washer would also help. Otherwise...

Looks great.

This if my first time posting in this area, not sure how this works. I have never tried Pliny the Elder, but obviously it's something special and I'd love to try it. I live in north central WA and even when RR was distributing to WA, it never made it to my area. I'm hoping maybe someone is...

Thank you MC! I'll do that when I get home tonight. I never even paid attention to the add-ons tab/link before....obviously.

Cheesehed007 - I have the exact setup as you. The edemetall works great. I can't tell much if any difference between it and my blichmann burner. I don't have the leg extensions, but those look nice and sturdy. I might have to purchase the extensions this winter. As Cheesehed...

The MC - That is great! Where is the add-on section?

You still have some available? I have a 20 qt pot that I'm looking to do 2-3 gallon biab test batches in. Kettle is 12" wide and 11" deep. Let me know and I'll place an order. Thanks!

I can't seem to get a screenshot to work. Anyways, I actually closed out the program and reopened it. I must have done something to cause the error as it is working properly when I use 'adjusted water'. After reading more posts on Epsom I decided to scrap that and the baking soda. Taking...

yeah sorry, I did mean gypsum reduction. I will play around with the numbers again tonight. I think I'm using the RO tab incorrectly. Can I assume roughly '0' across the board on the water input from tab 1? I realize there will be trace elements, but should be very minimal. I figure that...

Thanks for that info. When I get home tonight I will eliminate the baking soda, and lower the amount of CaCl to get under 300. Then I should be able to reduce the amount of acidulated malt and give it a shot. I'm still unsure about the 'existing water' selection. Any thoughts on that?

I don't think I have that. I can see the upgraded pages which has that RO water selection on Tab 2, but right now I just have the free version while I try and see if I'm smart enough for this program.

I have poor well water (think rotten eggs) so I have been using water from a neighbor to brew for the last 2 years. I have decided to try a few batches solely using RO water with additions. With so many different water calculators out there I decided to start with Bru'n water, as it seems a...

It's a great beer. I have about 12 left from when I brewed it last winter. I had a couple last night and it made me realize that I need to brew it again asap. Very good stuff.

Well it's certainly worth the try. I never did that with standard BIAB, but I also increased my 2-row by 1 lb per recipe to skew the eff #'s in my favor. I probably won't be able to brew for roughly 3 weeks, but will post my results once I try a mash out.

Yes!
