a wrench

That's what I was thinking but figured I should be safe and ask.

So I'm sure that the answer is out there someplace. Done a lot of reading and thought I saw it but can't find the answer now. I am in the process of building out a semi automated electric propane hybrid brewing panel. The question I have is this. My power coming in will be 120, and I have a...

did you get my PM I sent you yesterday? Just wondering

Does that include the shipping costs?

Yeah I would steer away from the idea that it is from splashing while racking. You made a Pilsner and they aren't supposed to be fermented warm. 5 days in a primary is way too fast for the style in my opinion. My initial thought reading through the thread is that it stems directly from the...

Buy in bulk

The non-mashtun is sold. I still have the mashtun left. I will try to get a picture up today.

I have to 1/2 barrel kegs the tops have been cut. One is set up to be a mash tun already and the other just has the top cut off. I don't want to ship if I don't have to. I'm looking for $90 for the mash tun and I'll do $30 for the other. Make me an offer. I need them out of the garage to...

One more question Martin. I know to never use a salt based water softner, but what about the newish product on the market EZ Water? It is supposed to use an electrical charge on the water line to neutralize ions. What effect does this have on brewing water? I am considering one for the house...

I get the same thing. Took me a little while to identify the problem. I brew in the garage and crush there too. I've got an industrial fan, so I throw that on and crack the garage door when crushing. This helps but what I've found is to just plan a little bit ahead. One or two puffs on the...

Martin, I use 5.2, is this really having the effect that I'm looking for? Can you give me a brief explanation either way? Would using phosphoric acid still be beneficial?

I stick my immersion chiller in a 6g fermenting bucket full of water, and stick it in my deep freezer till it is rock solid. Then I run my ground water through that and into my counter flow. Works, not 100% but I agree I'm in Indiana and have all but given up summer time brewing.

count me in

Just got all the materials today, should be a good few days of learning from some smart people. Looking forward to meeting Ray Daniels and Randy Mosher.

I'm headed to Chicago next week for Siebel's SYOB course, and thought I would see if anyone else on here will be there as well.

I'm game.

Question. I put this together 2 days ago and pitched w/ harvested S-04 ale yeast. I harvested from a conical so I had more than enough yeast to get going. Checked after 24 hrs nothing. Picked up 2 packets of champagne yeast and pitched, thought I saw some krausen and then took gravity...

I swore off competitions after getting my scoresheets back from the AHA competition and the judges dinging me for qualities in the beer that were clearly stated in the BJCP as being part of the style. Pissed me off.
