    NHC 2016 Location?

    I swear my googling sucks when I can't find the announcement page for next year's NHC, but such is life. The only thing I could find was a Reddit post that linked to a Facebook post that apparently doesn't exist anymore. Where is NCH next year? Can you point me to an announcement page so I can...

    Replacing mechanical thermostat with STC1000+

    I was tired of the two small project boxes fitted with STC's that I was using to control my fermentation chambers. They were clunky and had to many wires coming out. After spending some time on this website and taking some notes I know what I wanted to do. The problem was execution. I knew I...

    Replace the relay in a STC1000

    I was dumb and burned out the heat-side relay in an STC1000 (plugged a heat stick right into it). I was bored so I desoldered it from the board and was wondering if I could run some wires out of the board to drive an external mechanical relay or SSR. Seems that's all the board is doing right...

    Pin Lock to hose barb

    My google-fu has failed me. I'm looking for a male thread to hose barb that would screw into the keg side of a pin-lock post so I can put a post on my keg washer pump and use that to recirculate PBW through my draft system. Anyone have link for such a piece of hardware?

    Dead relay on STC1000?

    After about a year of light use I can no longer get my STC1000 to power anything during the heating cycle. Assuming I have a multimeter and assuming I'm an idiot when it comes to electrical stuff, how to I go about diagnosing what the problem is? I did check inside the project box and...

    Cut the compressor hump or build a collar?

    I'm looking for opinions on if I should cut the compressor hump or build a collar for my mini-fridge (essentially which will be easier given the story I'm about to write). I'd like to expand the fridge to hold 2 pin lock kegs for storage/lagering purposes (I have a separate kegerator). I've...

    Female 1/4" MFL to male 1/4" NPT

    Ok, so something like this has to exist but apparently I can't google well enough to find it. I want a way to connect my threaded pin lock gas side QD (which I think is 1/4" male flare thread) to a brass Tee with female 1/4" NPT. What should I search for and can I find it on amazon? Please...

    Add an acid to Palmer's water spreadsheet

    I did some googling and came up empty, but is there a way to add an acid to Palmer's water spreadsheet? Specifically I want to add 2N H2SO4 as an option (~10% wt/wt). Thanks!
