    Dark Star Burner?

    Still don't like it. I scraped it off, too.

    Dark Star Burner?

    I used it for the first time today. I agree with itsratso, it's difficult to regulate, at least this first time. I was able to dial it in eventually and it burns very hot. I was able to keep a rigorous boil easily. I don't like at all that the paint burned off.

    Outdoor burner placement

    Thanks guys, I feel better about my spot. The wall is not flammable :) I plan to keep the burner in my basement when it's not being used.

    Outdoor burner placement

    Wasn't sure if the wall counted as a structure or not, to be honest.

    Outdoor burner placement

    I've moving my brewing outdoors for the first time and was wondering if this location was ok. The burner flame ends up being above the retaining wall. I could get the burner a little higher. This is in between our house and the neighbors. The neighbors said it's fine with them. It's level and...

    In response to PMs, giving it a chance to sell all together or how I split it up for now.

    Pennsylvania 40 plate chiller, camlocks, therm, and other SS parts

    SOLD The SS hardware was all purchased new at the end of 2012, used once, and then has been sitting around. My brewing has headed in a different direction (no chill because of time constraints) and I'm not using any of this. The plate chiller was also purchased at the end of 2012, from...

    Brewery names--what's your story?

    We decided on Beauxmont's Brewery though we're still working on a logo. Beauxmont was the nickname my wife and I used for my son while he was in utero. I also barrel-aged whisky from New Year's Eve until the week he was born in May and called it Beauxmont's Batch. Surprisingly good.

    Universal Stopper with 2 Drilled Holes

    I want to freeze it in my chest freezer, which sits at around -10°F normally.

    Universal Stopper with 2 Drilled Holes

    I'm looking to do the same thing. I've read that freezing the stopper before drilling will make it easier to drill. I also don't have a drill press, so I am planning on figuring out the best way to clamping the stopper down and then going freehand. I bought a couple solid stoppers in case I...

    Came across this while Christmas shopping

    Considering that the details of the deal say to text STOP to the same number you're texting to get the promo code, I'm betting yes, you'll start getting spam texts after doing this deal.

    Made a lightbox - first time using it

    Yeah. The sheets are probably more just blocking the light rather than diffusing it. In the reflections on the glass, you can see how the light still forms a bright spot. When it's diffused properly, that spot wouldn't be there. Do you have a diffuser for your flashes? That might also help...

    Made a lightbox - first time using it

    I built this same lightbox a couple years ago. I would really recommend getting tracing paper from a hobby store like Michael's if possible. It'll diffuse your light much better. The glass makes it tough because of the reflections and you need to diffuse it as much as possible.
