    BG12 Orifices

    We are going to start selling the low pressure orifices ($5.00 each) because of our new manifold design. We are going to have a surplus of orifices that can be drilled out. (at least 12 in stock right now)...

    Plate Chiller for HERMS

    Electric RIMS Tube... lowest cost, most efficient. Inline flowmeter to protect the heating element and inline sight glass to see SRM.

    Plate Chiller for HERMS

    for a 3 bbl system they typically use two chillers. The first chiller is water being chilled by glycol and the second is wort being cold by chilled water. The water is recirculated. The plate chillers are much larger and designed to add and remove plates.

    RIMS Brew Cart coming along.

    The enclosure I posted in this thread had very little room inside. I can tell you just looking at the number of components you have that you are going to want a separate enclosure for all the relays and such.

    Sow me your pump/plate chiller stand

    Windsors - well built. Which pump model is that?

    Tandem Therminator Plate Chillers

    The port orientation changes from brand to brand. The goal for cleaning is a gravity drain of the wort side after clean-up. I don't orientation is critical for chilling.

    Another pickup tube option - elbow + silicone

    we used silicone on a customer's keggle to get underneath the pico false bottom It works great

    Boil Keggle recirculate/return location.

    diS has the right idea, you want the inlet near the bottom to create a proper whirlpool.

    Sparge coil build

    if you keep a 1" layer of water on top of the grain a simple hose is all you need. The layer of water is an insulator as well as the hose. That copper is going to drop your sparge water temperature rapidly.

    Scary moment with electronic ignition

    Yup... that's the way it's done.

    Where can I get an orifice

    That's weird, We have gone through dozens of banjo burners and never experienced that. The simple fix is a 3/8" to 1/4" brass bushing.

    Sow me your pump/plate chiller stand

    Each chiller should have separate cold in (parallel) and the wort from one to the other (series). The first chiller knock the temp down enough for the second to finish.

    Thermonator as Heat Exchanger

    Tried that. CFCs work better.

    Tandem Therminator Plate Chillers

    We started doing this last year... Breweries will chill the water with glycol in the first chiller and use that water to chill the wort in the second. The water is recirculated. How the big boys do it...

    Building a morebeer tippy dump replica

    One thing I noticed... you're not taking advantage of the air vents on top of the shroud.
