I die a little inside each time I see someone drinking BMC.... hahah

it looks like a basic immersion chiller, just has tube (hot used water) coming up through the middle instead of the outside the coils. Wanted to take some strips of copper and attach them to the outside/inside of coils to make them rigid.

no, all extra money goes to beer equip... to poor to have a camera

So I built a wort chiller, just basic 25' immersion chiller. I call it the beast because it looks like a tangled mess of tubing, BUT, it did take a 2.5 gal boil from 207F to 80F in 6 MINUTES!! I have really really cold tap. Any good ways to improve structural stability, on this thing? Was...

wow nice pad, wish I could buy. Don't be suprised if you get banned for having a bud light neon sign behind the TV.... jk

Just threw together a immersion wort chiller. Did a vinegar solution boil to test it, worked well, but when I brought it out and wiped it down, it left a yellow residue on the rag. Is this still ok to put into wort??? Is there a better way to clean immersion chillers? Was going to use on...

haha great!

Yeah, just do oxyclean, bottle brush, rinse w/ hot water, and star san for 1 min, always worked for me. Foam is your friend!

so are you in the industry?

St Paddy's is my SWMBO B-day, so, STOUT! yaya! She rocks!

Cean it, and put a fresh airlock on asap. the airlock is not sterile anymore and if you have any blow back you could pull nasties into your brew. My microbiology class did that (and let if ferment in a LIGHT HOT ROOM, not a cool dark basement), I am not going to try their beer because I know...

HAHA, rolling pin method sucks! I didn't get 5 wacks into it when I just went for the coffee grinder (works well). Jeeze dudes, use common sense. This ain't microbiology, its engineering... ha Actually does a coffee grinder pulverise to much? Or why exactly is it bad/not ideal?

with a recession on the horizon you could just wait to get laid off... then you really would have to start your lucrative brewpub, no other jobs around. j/k,

its for mini mash, I may just try to raise the old one from the dead and make sure the cord does not get wet. Or just buy that sweet one mentioned earlier! Now just have to break SWMBO to spend more $ on beer stuff.

Yes there is, MORE BEER!

+1 on good recovery. I would have pooped myself. Go around again and have stewardess bring up emergency change of depends. Then ask tower to give an accurate crosswind speed next time. That guy was crabing pretty good.

the stove tops off @ 209 F, but thats probably close enough, no one ever hits their temps right on. Good point on getting liquid into the probe, that is probably the problem. Thx

So I JUST started my boil when my china made probe-wire thermometer just stopped working. Subbing with my roast-thermo yay... Any brands out there that work for over 1 yr? -The one I have is a Taylor Wire probe style. It was nice because I tied it onto my pot handle and let the probe hang...

Anyone want to say recession?
