    Mushtun Plumbing

    The cooler doesn't have a hole, so I'll just use a spade bit and make it fit my shank. I was worried about the zip-ties but i keep reading about them and nothing really scary comes up. About the lead in brass. It says it on the package, but I paid very little considering, so i'm assuming it...

    Mushtun Plumbing

    So this is my plumbing for my mashtun. I took the simplest valve i could find at my local hardware store. They don't have much in brass, and nothing in stainless. I couldnt find a stainless washer so i took a cork and two rubbers, which should provide a tight seal. There also wasn't any SS...

    So, I want to brew, but I'm on a broke ass budget...

    Right you are. The internet is a funny place where people get misunderstood often. What I aim to do is this : 1- Invest 100$ (approx) on basic equipment and start brewing batches. Simple manual work, heat water, dough-in, refill HLT and heat again, vorlauf, batch sparge, boil, rack...

    It's in the plans rest assured. Fall or winter. But for now I'll make due with my twisties. Can't imagine it's bad...

    I like the idea of bulk grain and a Corona mill. And of course the Hydrometer, it's a given. Maybe I'm not as broke-ass as I led you to believe, I just want to equip myself slowly. I get why you might feel like BIAB is the single most easy and cost-effective way, but it just doesn't appeal to...

    Haha well Maybe I should say it's a mid-level budget but spread across a long period. Now this is interresting. You mean to say it's made from the clear type of tubing? And it holds well under boiling temps ? Because at a quarter/foot, it'S a no brainer until I get the copper.

    Yes I thought about this. Although The Son of Fermentation Chiller looked easy enough to build on the cheap side. I'll have to compare both options. And I thought also about using my aquarium air pump (I also love aquariums) for aerating, though it seems it's not exactly necessary if you do...

    So, I want to brew, but I'm on a broke ass budget...

    Yeah I looked into BIAB, but I don't know, I like the idea of HERMS, so I want to navigate that way while building my setup. I'm looking into reusing the yeast and am looking into building my stir plate from a computer fan. I'm not looking to spend as little money as possible though. I'm just...

    So, I want to brew, but I'm on a broke ass budget...

    Hey guys, I’m currently putting my brewing setup together, and since I’m going to invest very small amounts of money every month or so because of my financial situation, I wanted to make a priority list of some sort, to figure out what I need first, and then how I can expand slowly. So here it...

    Dingos ate my title

    Hey guys. I'm Jon and I'm from Montreal. You'll have to excuse my english as I am a frenchie. I've been passionate about beer for a long time and have decided to try my hand at brewing it for the first time this summer. My favorite styles are high gravity beers from europe. I like...
