I just got my stainless steel heads today for my two previously purchased Chuggers. I haven't used them yet but Mike at Chuggerpumps has been pretty great about responding to e-mails and has offered several deals on this forum. I got both of mine with the plastic heads for $79.99 each (no...

Craigslist is definitely your friend here. I picked up 4 a couple of weeks ago for a grand total of $50. Couldn't pass it up and it was worth a bit of a drive to pick them up. You can search multiple cities at once for Craigslist if you use searchtempest.com. I've found several great deals...

The pumps should already have a ground on the wires coming out of them. if you attach that directly to the stand then the stand has to be grounded somewhere. Otherwise, you can just run the ground wires to your switch or whatever you have powering your pumps. If there is a ground going to...

If you ground the stand somehow then yes. Otherwise, like I said before, you could potentially become the ground which = bad day.

If you ground it to the stand, what will the stand be grounded to? If you touch the stand, you could be the ground. Or, if you touch the stand and another electrical component, you could complete a circuit and get a nice jolt. Fortunately, the few times it's happened to me over the years, I...

I've had batches that finish in about two days. It doesn't really matter how long it takes for them to finish as long as you hit your numbers in the end. Maybe the more experienced tasters will say it has a lot to do with taste and mouth feel but it certainly won't mean you need to throw it...

I googled these systems and am wondering what the huge benefit is. Other than people that live in a place with non-potable drinking water, what does it do for you besides waste a whole lot of water?

The reason I suggested 6 is because it's exactly what I did. My CO2 tank is outside the fridge since it's a 20lb'er. My manifold is mounted on the inside wall of the fridge so the only hole is the one I drilled to run the main line from the tank through. Hopefully, next month I'll be removing...

Should be able to fit two more in there. I've got six in mine. It's a little tight but hey, 30 gallons of kegged beer is better than 20.

ScubaSteve, I'm working on building my wooden single-tier stand based on your original one but I'll probably make it a bit shorter and the dimensions will be just wide and long enough to sport the kegs for brewing one top and to store on their side underneath. I'll probably design in a way...

Whatever it takes.

I was fortunate enough to get in on the deal he was offering last week that said if you ordered the regular non-stainless version for $79.99 on eBay, he would switch to the stainless heads for free. Got two of the last 4 he had at that price. I'm pretty stoked, they get here tomorrow...

Thanks for all of the info. I was confused earlier about what you guys were talking about drilling out but I got it now. I thought there was modification on the actual burner when it's actually just drilling out the fitting that screws into the burner. I have seen the light and will be...

Good to know about the orifices kladue. I'll do a search on here and see if I can find how far to drill the orifice out. When you say drill out the orifice, are we talking about drilling out everything and having to even retap the threads?

Yes Lonnie, that was one of my main questions. I just got the back issue of BYO with the Brutus build in it yesterday and saw that you were running everything off of a low pressure regulator. I've found the 6" low pressure burners for $9.99 but can't seem to find the bigger BG-14 low...

Does this mean I can run low pressure and high pressure burners off of say, a 0-30psi regulator and control the low pressure one(s) with a needle valve?

Sweet...I'd definitely like to check that out. As far as all of the other threads that exist on the subject...I found many, but from all of the threads and the too many varying opinions, I was having trouble finding any discernible information. My question still remains as to what, in the...

I'm slowly piecing together my single-tier brutus type system and have been scouring this forum for all of the information I can get on burners, regulators, solenoids and pilot lights. I live in Florida where natural gas in your home is a rare commodity so I'll be using standard 20lb propane...

Check out chugger pumps on eBay. I just bought two and they're a good bit cheaper than the march.

How do the camlocks work? I've been looking at the pictures and can't really envision how they go together. I know how normal QD's and tri's work. When I say 'normal' QD's, I'm referring to ones that go together like the ones on my air compressor. Never came across cams though. What's he...
