    That's very helpful! So it sounds like the certificate covers the products of a certain farm, is that right? Right now I'm leaning towards getting one certificate for the lot, and begging them to clean and bag the rhizomes separately, especially since the regulations I read seemed to say that...

    Welcome to the forums, Steve. Sorry I didn't reply earlier, it's been a hectic week. I haven't made the purchase yet (the certificates are a pain in the butt), so please PM me with 1) what rhizomes you want and 2) your address. Brendan, do we need to get a separate certificate for each rhizome...

    Pump sizes?

    First, here's my tiny little beer closet. I have to get everything into this space that measures 85cm wide x 186cm long. The doorway into this space is only 44.5cm wide. Thus my $100 mistake prior to planning out this project. :drunk: You can see my freezer on the right side. Unfortunately, my...

    Well, here's the news from AIH RE:certificates: So the Perle, Crystal, and Tettnanger that people asked for are not going to work; at least not through AIH. I'm looking around for other stores/farms that may be able to provide these cheaper and with less hassle, so anybody that wants to get in...

    I just noticed your response- somehow it got skipped over earlier. Thank you for giving me an idea what to look for. "Pond pump antifreeze" turned up some very useful threads, which I think answered my questions. This thread was especially useful.

    Last day to get in on the bulk hops pre-order. PM me ASAP if you want some.

    Pump sizes?

    The freezer was delivered yesterday while I was at work! I'm looking forward to fixing this up tomorrow while SWMBO is at her parents' house. However, one look at the inside of the freezer shot down any ideas of ever using it for kegs. Mini-kegs, maybe. 19L kegs? Hell no.

    Pump sizes?

    Yup, I've already got foam insulation to cover the distance between the chamber and the freezer. Inside the fermentation chamber, wouldn't it just impede the heat transfer more than the vinyl alone, and hurt my efficiency?

    Ok, yeah. I'll try taping it to the side first.
  13. Fencdar

    Pump sizes?

    Yeah I did think of that, but a) copper is waaay more expensive than vinyl and b) inserting and removing fermenters would be tough. I'm considering eventually switching to radiators to cool it, but those are pricey too.

    Are you sure it is consistently the same temp as your beer though? That's my biggest fear, but if that gets a decently accurate reading then I'll give it a try.

    so I'm working on a fermentation chamber, and I need to figure out how to place my temperature probes. Most people recommend putting them in a bottle of water in the chamber, but that only works if the whole chamber is cooled, whereas I am directly chilling the fermenters. Leaving them dangling...

    Hey all. I'm working on a custom-made refrigeration chamber, the reasons for which I have discussed elsewhere and don't want to get into now. Here is my design: The frame of this monstrosity is a W40cm x L45cm x H130cm metal rack from the hardware store, with walls of styrofoam insulation...

    For anyone that isn't watching the hops thread, I'm going to be making a bulk purchase of rhizomes this weekend. If you want to grow your own hops, PM me your order and address ASAP.

    I guess international markets just aren't worth the headache to some people. :( Farmhouse hasn't gotten back to me, but AIH says they can supply certificates for some varieties. Once I have a list of what all everybody wants, I'll email them and check. EDIT: Northern Brewer got back to me- they...

    Is anyone else going to the homebrew meetup at Popeye next weekend? http://advanced-brewing.com/event.html

    ****, if you're at an FPO, you'll probably get a lot cheaper shipping than I will. Yes, I can ship to you, I'll just have to get your Japanese address.
