That is what I did with mine.

To answer your question, yes that would work fine. I have a round cooler that I have used a braid and then later a false bottom in. Bazooka tubes work as well. But... if I had it to do over again, I would go with a rectangular cooler ala Denny. I got the round cooler because I thought that was...

Same. When I need a quick turn around, I make BierMuncher's Centenial Ale. I can go grain to glass in 10 days (but it gets better after another week or two)

Don't miss Tropicalia by Creature Comforts Brewery.

I grew up in Michigan. When I read your thread title, I immediately thought of the glass you show in your picture.

I hear it's an acquired taste...

Looks as if my contrarian opinion struck a nerve

Could be, but not all fermentation caused beer to taste like ass

And all of them spoiled. ;)

It looks as if photobucket wants me to pay to be able to share my pics... so this is what I did I used a 1" hole saw that allowed a little play for the shanks in the holes. It allowed me to get the spacers centered without having to be so precise that my holes had to be exactly in the middle...

Check out my build. The link is in my sig. I cut circles out of oak. Not precise, but it did the trick

No specific recommendation, but I would suggest that where ever you are, search out local brew pubs. I try to do that when ever I travel and have found some gems. Of course, I have found some dud too...

I can tell by the smell in my fermentation chamber whether the beer is done or not. I usually take a reading prior to kegging to get an accurate ABV

Nice!

Too bad they already reproduced

I just got back from a trip to the Quetico Provincial Park. I went on a canoe trip to the Boundary Waters with my Dad about 45 years ago and finally got a chance to do the same with my sons. We had a great time. Fishing was great and the weather was decent. Both sons caught their first...

Thanks all. We ended up going to Northbound. Great suggestion. Good beer. Good food. We checked out Third Base in Cedar Rapids Iowa on the way up, too. Good burgers and beer. Had a great time in the Quetico, too ;)
