Picked up a brewpi today to get some automation in my fermentation. I've been traveling so much lately and having fermentation automation is a great thought. Apparently I just stick a probe in the glycol as room temp, and a sensor in the chronical as the beer temp, and it will take care of the...

I had already settled on this pump, check it out.. http://greatbreweh.com/Beer_Pump.html

It's been holding up great ever since that glorious first brew. I found out that with the slimline torpedo kegs I can get 4 in there, which is awesome, and I'm contemplating adding a third tap, possibly nitro, to the center. I ordered some of the intertap faucets as I like all of the...

Sorry, these are all 5 gal.

Awesome feedback everyone. Thank you. I already use a sous vide system to heat my water, and I'm looking for the next level, I feel this is it. I also have a full woodshop in my basement next the brewery so tools are of no issue. I'm looking to automate the brew process a little further, so to...

Good find on those pumps. I was about to get a TD5 for $140. Can't beat this.

Ready to go if you are....

Thanks, JayJay, so I just need a step bit to drill through the pot, and I'm good?

Yes, please let me know.

Hello, So I brew on a grainfather and it works great for me. I'd like to build a brew stand soon that houses a pot that is heated via electric that will sparge for me, and then a mount for the CFC and then I'll fashion some tubing to go to the chronical. Can anyone point me in the right...

Chef Source in Canton has the puree I listed earlier in stock.

A great question....

Leaf hops would be ideal for a sous video setup it seems. I have as well, wrapped the bottom of the machine with cheese cloth or something similar if I'm going to be circulating. Although it's interesting as well that you could vacuum seal your wort and hops, then circulate that in your water...

This is how I did mind with some chrome extensions to match. You can use the shrouds still if you want to, but I sealed mine from the rear as I liked the clean look of just the extension. Here is the part as well - link

Pm replied to and I'm in Bloomfield hills.

Thank for the honest information and product. The notes on my usage were really just for the thread, but I appreciate the breakdown as it educates me.

@PenguinChillers Is there a runtime on these units? And being curious, what about the MTBF? Last time I cold crashed it couldn't get to 32, so I set it to 35.5 and it held fine there, the unit probably runs 5-10 minutes every 45-60 minutes I'd say. And the set temps above are what I had the...

A surprise in disguise! I'm thinking I'll be in the same boat soon. Just set up the glycol and ftss system and it's running more than I expected. We shall see!

Hey all... I invested in the torpedo kegs 5 in total and 3 are regular, 2 slimline. I only need the slimline as it allows me to fit 4 in my keezer. So, I have 3, 8 month old torpedo kegs for sale. As you know the retail on these is 90 shipped. They're all in great shape, and they'll ship...

Awesome read everyone, look forward to reading more. Perhaps jumping in for next year.
