    Florida SOLD - SS Brewtech 10G Brite Tank FTSS

    Selling my Brite Tank as haven't used in a while. (Also willing to trade for a 7G jacketed conical with chilling coil. Like the bme chronical) Brite is in great shape and all FTSS parts included. This tank has the rolling caster wheels, but I still have the feet and the non-coil top that I...

    FTSS connections for chiller coil

    FTSS connections for chiller coil

    I finally got around to connecting up my glycol chiller to the FTSS coil. Wondering how folks handle the on/off of the tubing connections? I can surely just pull these off the coil whenever I move the conical but there has to be a preferred or better way. Maybe some inline plugs/clips? Would...

    Any more news or updates from any insiders here on Homebrew Con in Nashville this year. Looks like the stay at home order is being lifted on May 1, but what are folks' thoughts on what will happen to the conference this year. I'm not sure how feasible traveling from other parts of the country...

    End of the world supply

    laughing a bit as i read thru this thread as i felt the same way about my dwindling supply when our lockdown was coming. did get a brew session in, as well as bought a few pounds for the next brew day. On a brighter note, most of the breweries here in Tampa area have either found a way around...

    The Home Made Pizza Thread

    Been following and reading this thread for several months. Received a wood fired pizza oven for Christmas and had been trying various doughs and processes. Seemed to have landed on a good dough recipe using "00" flour, and cooking most pies at about 700 F seems to work best for me. Keeping...

    Brew-Boss Opinions

    I’m not certain that throttling down the pump increases efficiency, but for me it's more about changing the circulation channels in the grain bed using the pump velocity. Also, I pretty much mash with the top of the cofi basket off now, so I can occasionally stir up the grain bed as I was...

    Gumball Head Clone....WOW

    Got my hands on a sixer of this when traveling in Ohio last month. Really good single hop wheat beer. Going to be brewing up a batch this weekend, but need to check the freezer to see if i have enough Amarillo. Also, a lot of the recipes in the Beersmith cloud say "red wheat" but reading the...

    Glycol chiller in Sarasota 150.00

    Man, this is so close, super cheap and i've always wanted to switch to glycol chilling for ferment control. Anyone else out there have any info/experience with this model? Currently googling it, but not a lot of info other than it's use for dispensing.....

    San Diego's Must Drink and See

    I've done both and it really depends on where you are staying and then visiting. When I stay in heart of downtown/ gaslamp quarter I no longer get cars as the hotel we stay at charges like 30/night or something for parking. Uber there has always been reasonable. But if you are planning to get...

    San Diego's Must Drink and See

    Ah, San Diego. My beer home away from home. You'll get lots of recommendations and you'll have lots of options from folks on here, but one of the coolest things we did on one of our trips there was to head out to White Labs. Got a cool tour of the facility, with lots of access to the WL...

    Cold crashing

    i think it mentions it in that thread, but what i do when i go to cold crash i switch the post connections so the fermentor is connected to the gas post, then the connection to the liquid/out line goes into a bucket with star san/etc. (should have mentioned above, when fermenting i have the...

    Cold crashing

    you should be able to attach a tube to a 3 piece airlock connection. then just attach a ball/pin lock connector to the other end to use the keg setup. the setup is not for pressurized fermentation, but more to capture the CO2 gas, then to use that setup for cold crashing so as not to introduce...

    Cold crashing

    Not knocking this NorCal option as it works well, but if you keg (and/or have an extra keg) you can do the same thing as this harvester pretty simply with some keg connections and tubing. There is a good thread on here about doing it this way. Will see if i can find and post thread link. I...

    Amoretti craft purees

    Question on that homebrew con bottle of grapefruit. Did you use all 8.5 oz of that in your 5 gallons? I've a kegged 3G American Wheat and trying to figure out the dosing. I know you added to a gose, but could you tell if the grapefruit added more "pucker" or more "sweet"? Wife really...

    Beer has HUGE head when poured and is flat, but no fizz/foam when opening bottle

    Varying opinions on this but I usually don't feel like the bottle conditions beers I've made were done conditioning for at least 3 weeks. That is to get to the carb levels I'm expecting. Temp they were conditioned in also plays a factor. A good tip regardless of the length of time you choose...
