    Northern Brewer Grapefruit Sculpin clone

    Love this beer too and agree that time is this beer's best friend. Mine has been kegged for 4 weeks and everything has blended beautifully. The grapefruit flavor was super forward at the beginning and now is very subtle. Also, I have drank/drunk a lot of the sculpin gf and would say the...

    New Brau Supply BIAC...with Brewboss option...

    Discussion started here: https://www.homebrewtalk.com/showthread.php?t=549060 but will continue here as it deals with the new systems. I think the systems look good and certainly cheaper than the Brewha system. That said, they are different. The Brewha uses a jacketed conical whereas the...

    DIY Beer Line Cleaner

    Made a one gallon line cleaner using these two purchased items. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000E28UQU/?tag=skimlinks_replacement-20 https://www.brewhardware.com/product_p/ball_lock_jumperpost.htm I had an extra ball lock beverage connector with barbed fitting. I cut the control handle...

    Unibrau 75l BIAC

    I'm interested in the 75L system as well, but not as currently offered i.e. with immersion coil for fermentation temp control. (i have the SSBrewtech conical with FTSS and am not impressed) They do sell a 75L jacketed conical as well...

    American Pale Ale Bee Cave Brewery Haus Pale Ale

    Well I hit all my numbers and cold crashed it with gelatin and carbed it to 2.7. It tastes like a sour blonde ale. Not terrible, but not very satisfying. I may dump it.

    Brew Bucket by SS Brewing Technologies

    I have the ftss on their 7 gal conical. It works well to keep fermentation warm, although I had to buy the extensions to make it work properly (i.e. eliminate high temp differential). I think they should be standard. Cooler of water and a cheap aquarium heater is an easy setup. Unless you...

    American Pale Ale Bee Cave Brewery Haus Pale Ale

    This recipe looked simple and good. So I bought all the grains and yeast. I also bought a pre-packed pound of Sauermlz to have around for when I decided to get a better handle on my mash ph. I crushed the pale and vienna and reached for the bag of crystal malt thinking, "I'm just gonna go...

    Brew Boss Systems

    I have not had the problem again. Things I did that may have solved it: Changed to longer temp probe Double checked to be sure I was using the correct parameters file (which I'm pretty sure I was prior) There also may have been a BrewBoss software update since I first experienced the issue. It's...

    Anyone getting (got) a Synek?

    While it may be a 1 gal kegerator, making a cost comparison to the pressurized growlers is not quite fair unless you include the cost of a fridge...which the synek includes. Yes, you can always do things differently/cheaper but the growler solution is not the same. For me, and I'm sure many...

    Brew Boss Systems

    So I attempted to reconfigure my system (15 gal w,basket and bag, no COFI) just a bit, mostly due to the addition of a chugger pump (I had two of the tan plastic 12v pumps fail). I had previously just had the pump directly screwed onto the kettle valve which was attached to a sight glass...

    Cheap compact wort pump

    I run near boiling water through it (and my CF chiller) after brewing is complete. Even with that, I've had to disassemble each brew session to free the impeller. I've also had them stop during each of the last two brew sessions. Has become annoying enough that I've stepped up to a chugger pump.

    Blonde Ale Centennial Blonde (Simple 4% All Grain, 5 & 10 Gall)

    I just did the 11 gal batch. OG was 1.041. Used one pack of Nottingham as in the original post. Rehydrated and it took off quickly and finished at 1.005. Two won't hurt you, but the OP had it right.

    SSBrewtech ferment temp control

    I have the FTSS and used it in an attempt to keep warm, not cold. As delivered without the additional cost of the extension system (which I have not tried), it is not very good for this application as the temperature differential from top to bottom is quite large, as much as 10 degrees in the...
