    Blichmann Pro Pilot vs Spike System

    Looking to up grade my current system to either the Electric Blichmann Pro Pilot RIMS or the Spike System. I like them both, but I’m leaning towards the Blichmann System. What are your thoughts? Has anyone on here used both? This is a picture of my current system.

    Blichman Pro Pilot VS Spike System

    let me first say I love my 15 gallon Spike Mash Tun, I also am the proud new owner of a Spike CF-10. As far as the brew systems go, I like certain things about both. If I go with the Spike System I’d definitely go with the 20 gallon kettles and a 50 amp panel, if I choose the Blichman System, it...

    Mistakes water addition

    Ok guys I've been brewing for a while now but I'm just now starting to adjust my water. I recently brewed a Pale Ale and instead of adding 6 grams of Gypsum and 2 grams of Calcium Chloride to the mash I added it in my HLT strike water. What will this do to my finished beer?

    Moved now beer in keg is not clear

    I recently moved, I didn't remove my kegs from the kizer. I expected my beer to be a little cloudy for couple days. It's only been 3 days but my beer is still cloudy and it has some sediment floating in the glass. Will this clear up?

    I have on tap a Hefeweizan, Double IPA, Raspberry Wheat & Irish Whiskey Cask Chocolate Milk Extra Stout. I only use one regulator which runs to a manifold that feeds 5 kegs. My keezer is set to around 35 or 36 degrees. Being that I only use one reg at this time, where should I set the PSI for...

    AVB to high

    I kegged my 3rd all grain beer today (1st AG that I did all on my own) and my AVB was way higher than I was hoping for.
