Any advice on types/locations for a fair price. Largest pot I have is 10 gallons for all grain brewing. (For 5 gallons)

Nice thanks for the heads up

Thanks for all the advice! About to head to the hardware store and put together my MLT. I'm wondering though, what are the pros vs. cons for using SS or Copper pieces. I've heard to avoid Brass for possible lead issues. I'm going to do the SS Braid Method but was wondering for the valve and...

About to make the jump to All Grain. The LHBS told me a 10 gallon mash/lauter tun (igloo Circular Cooler) with a false bottom would be around 180. The false bottom looked like one of the official ones, very well made. Would it be cheaper to buy my own cooler and make my own CPVC manifold...

Pumped to try this one. I was thinking of adding wet orange peels for 5 minutes in the boil. I also wanted to throw in some peels during the secondary stage. I was wondering if dried peels are better for secondary?

I want to make high quality professional looking labels and am wondering what the best route is. Make my own and print? Design my own and Kinkos? A good website? Thanks!

Yea I'm thinking this stuff will be an investment for the future as well. I know down the line I'll want to expand/make something a little more legit. The better drill bits might be worth it! Thanks again.

All awesome advice and solid links! Two last questions... Is it worth buying a hole saw with a drill bit for cutting ease, (15/16 " is the size I've found which I guess makes sense because it seems most all shanks will be 1/8 ") and are the creamers worth it?

Nice. I've already got the fittings for one keg to be hooked up. This is a blessing in disguise and I'm just going to upgrade and get two freshy shanks and faucets and one extra fitting rig...for whatever reason I already have two "Out" Couplers. My last question is there any specific shank...

So if I get stainless steal perlicks, can I just get any stainless steal shank and that is all I'll need) aside from the line and what not...

I've heard that name before. I'm thinking when I upgrade my kegerator set up I can just pull the nice taps with me too. Probably the best bet as I see no stop to this obsession! Haha, the tap that came with the preowned kegeator was apparently copper, and I was changing the keg out/recleaning...

Whatever else I need for the complete pouring aspect of my kegerator. I have an old stand up refridgerator style kegerator and I need to buy at least one new complete set up, probably two though. I'm not sure my LHBS is the best route and was wondering if anyone has a good online site. I...

yea I went for the 1028, thanks for all the advice folks! Thinking I made a good decision here!

I'm leaning on more German ingredients and it's kind of a robust porter/stout that I'm going for. Thanks so much for all the advice and if anyone has anymore input with this info being brought up that would be awesome!

a Porter type beer. The hops I'm using will be going for earthy/floral. I plan on using a good amount of grains using chocolate/crytsal/black patent malts. From past experience and a little reading I'm trying to decide between these two. I've never used the 1028 London before but it sounds...

Too awesome you made this thread! I was brewing the other day and my roommate brought some people over I didn't know too well. Saw everything out and were a little awkward. Finally asked if I was a chemist, "or something..." I laughed and poured them a homebrew!

dzlater knows what's up! On a side note, dunking cookies into an espresso stout...cue Homer Simpson's "mmmmmmmmmm"

thanks

Any good books out there about the brewing industry/about breweries and start ups??? Thanks!
