These got planted as tiny Cascade rhizomes this May so I'll take it. I screwed a few shelf brackets to the posts and another one at the peak to hold the twine away from the building. Lots of cones..

Brag:

I don't purport to know the history of moonshining or distillation but I do know most of the chemistry involved in mashing and converting starch into fermentable sugar. What I'm curious about is the common usage of cracked or flaked corn in otherwise sugar only wash fermentations. To be clear...

I don't know if this is interesting to anyone, but I was tasked by a customer to solve two issues with absolutely no hose changes...

I was always a bit envious of the Basic Brewing Radio guys when they tasted their hop sampler beers. This is definitely the long way around vs. mixing up DME. I mashed about 23LB of grain in the big BIAB kettle, pulled the bag, boiled for 30 minutes and dropped a whirlfloc tab and let the wort...

If you've got a solid 40 minutes to spare and you want to explore the Spike Solo, Blichmann Brew Commander, and Auber Cube, this is for you. Feedback/Questions welcomed.

In my 18 years of brewing, I never heard of this or thought about it on my own. https://academic.oup.com/femsyr/article/9/2/226/568736 The basic idea: Most of us know, at various levels of understanding, that yeast needs oxygen, hence all the shaking and pour wort and whatever other gadgets...

Cabernet sauv pyment project. Go Ferm Protect Evolution 7 packs of RC212 The juice was Wine Expert Private Reserve (actually the VineCo branded version this time) California Cab Sauv. The kit's juice is concentrated at 33 brix @ 3.75 gallons which I split between two fermonsters. Each...

Just a little build porn for ya's. Have you noticed how much hose is required for many of the big system builders' HERMS systems? It's like their compensating for something. This 15G x 3 HERMS build has a grand total of 6 feet of silicone tubing and it runs through all the required port...

The conception of the system if interested; https://www.homebrewtalk.com/threads/multiple-concurrent-small-batch-brewing.729207/ This brew day is looking at what effects and/or differences there may be if you get a LOT of the fine mash particles into your boil (cloudy wort runoff from the mash)...

Maybe it's silly but I think it classes things up vs. a gallon water jug on the floor. It stays with the fermenter if you ever have to wheel it around.

A friction fit whirlpool for 1.5" TC ports machined out of a single piece of stainless.

My friend Larry's drool-worthy brewery being flexed by the master himself.

I'm sure you're all seeing systematic closing of many of your local homebrew supply stores recently (if not a year or two ago). The ripples of homebrewing shrinkage are even being felt via some larger mailorder houses like High Gravity and Northern Brewer deciding to close their walk in stores...

Out of sorrow and desperation, I tried to fill the homebrewcon sized hole in my soul by attending the CBC. In fact, I'm sitting the Las Vegas airport waiting for my redeye flight back home right now. The CBC was weird because I'm not a pro brewer and I went by myself. It had its positive vibes...

From this: To this: For $5... Currently available for 15 and 20 gallon kettle sizes. 10G coming soon. https://www.brewhardware.com/product_p/cal_blichmann.htm

I'm just showing off one of the biggest pains in my ass fabrication projects I've completed. It's not pretty, but it also doesn't leak so that's winning. 3 separate 30ft coils of 5/16" OD stainless running in parallel. It's kind of similar to Jaded chillers but the stainless ones have been out...
