Was going to build a control for my Blichmann Boilcoil, but, I realize it is beyond my capabilities. I have a MYPIN TA4, a 40amp SSR with heatsink and an RTD PT100 with 1/2" NPT threads and detachable connector. These are all new in original packaging. I would like to sell together for $55...

Thanks Shred. I am going to move my storage upstairs. My house is typically 64 degrees this time of year, so, maybe I should build one of those aquarium heater control boxes! Just kidding. I will move it out of the basement though and maybe gain a couple degrees.

I am bottle fermenting at about 64-66 degrees. That first bottle I placed outside for a half hour to cool and then popped it. Will it make a difference if I chill it longer? I'm hoping it was just a bad seal on that first one. I'm hoping for a bench capper for Christmas!

I brewed my first batch of AG and wondering if anyone could give me things to watch with my next. The first bottle was opened after 17 days in the bottle. It was very flat, virtually no head, but, flavor was OK. I added 5oz of priming sugar to about 5.25 gallons before bottling. My fear is...

SOLD... thanks Bill B.

Nope, both Sch 40. I can't tell you how much it varied as I don't have the Menards pipe around anymore, but, it was probably just a fraction different.

An update on the bottle washer experiment. Still working well. Sometimes I put too much Starsan in and it bubbles up like a kids bubble bath, but, I have never had it overflow yet. One upgrade I am considering is to put some type of bottle stop on the lower end of each cpvc pipe to hold the...

My Boilcoil's (240v ten gallon from greatfermentations) first trial was as follows; In my basement which is around 66 degrees, 16 quarts of 57 degree water out of the tap into the covered ten gallon kettle. At 10 minutes I was at 118 deg. 16 minutes at 150 deg. 20 minutes at 174 deg. Full...

Great, thanks. I'm in no rush, the RTD probably won't be here for a week or so and I still need to build the enclosure. I appreciate any help you can offer. Tim

I have a Square D Homeline 30a double pole GFCI breaker, new, never installed that I would like to sell. I have the Square D QO panel and bought this by mistake and can't use without complicating the issue with a subpanel. If anyone is interested I will let it go for $60 shipped to lower 48...

Hi Augie, I have just received a MYPIN TA4 and an SSR (40a) and waiting for my RTD PT100 to hook to my Blichmann Brewcoil. Do you have a wiring diagram I could refernece? I am new to this and I haven't been able to find a diagram that makes sense for the TA4 and how to hook up the PT100. I...

Washing/sanitizing long neck bottles is a pain, so, I decided to try to build a bottle washer similar to what I've seen here and on youtube. I won't bore you with too many details here as I know just about anybody can build a 1/2" pvc grid attached to a pump... I have a spare 585 gph pond pump...
