I have had an idea for a refrigerated counter flow chiller and I am going to make it my goal to have that built and perfected this year. I am tired of wasting hundreds of gallons of water to chill 5 gallons of wort.

One note to bottle sanitizing. Speaking from my own mistake. If the concentration of Star Sans is too high it will impart a "soapy" taste in the beer. I bottled a couple of cases of beer from a keg using the pump reservoir as show in the video above to sanitize the bottles (works great) and sent...

This is what I was thinking of when I made the original post. I have a convoluted counter flow chiller and I would like to adapt it to something very similar to this. I would defiantly need to educate myself a little or employ someone familiar with how to tune such a system for chilling wort...

Do you have a similar link to directions for "no flow meters"? I have been sitting in a hold pattern wanting to get mine up and running but have not had a set of directions that will get me to a working menu. Unfortunately I only have enough computer knowledge to get me in trouble. Thanks...

I'm curious if anyone has tried taking a counterflow chiller and making a closed loop system with an ac pump and some kind of refrigerant? Currently in the winter time with 54 deg ground water I can chill a 5 gal batch to 65 deg in 6 minutes. In the summer months chilling down to pitching temp...

This is total BS! Somebody had way too much time on there hands.

I can't get past the Chromium installation. I realize now that it is probably fixable I just need to search through this thread to get the solution. I can't tell you how many times I have just started over and reformatted my SD card because I may have made a mistake along the way. This last time...

Just want to throw this out there as a possible solution to the difficult installation I am having. Your feedback would be greatly appreciated. Since Raspian Wheezy is no longer available and Jessie doesn't seem to be compatible with the installation instructions currently available on Raspberry...

I have. that is what got me inspired to give it another crack. I get to the Chromium install and that's where I run into a snag.

I copied and pasted the string and deleted the -y. I still get the message gpg:no valid OpenPGP data found. I tried Sudo apt-get install chromium-browser by itself and I get the message: Unable to locate package chromium browser This is the point that I got to months ago and gave up. Upon...

I've been working through your install instructions. When I get to install chromium I am getting his error message: tee: invalid option -- 'y' Try 'tee --help' for more information. gpg: no valid OpenPGP data found. Any idea what I may have done wrong? Thanks, Tom P.S. I copy and pasted the...

I do realize that the lack of response to my request validates the absurdity of it. I knew that it wasn't as easy as copying it to a disk and sending it on its way. I just wanted to see what the response was. I guess if I really want it done I will need to read through the 2000 or so posts to...

Anyone have a working version on Raspberry Pints with out flow meters that they would consider copying to an SD card and selling to me? I have worked for hours to try to get mine working and have not had any success. I know it is because I don't have the right OS but I've gotten to the point...

Even though I am blessed to have Northern Brewer and Midwest supply so close to my house I decided to stock and crush my own grains.

Final cleaning of favorite carboy and go to flip it upside down to drain and it slips out of hand and crashes on the floor into several pieces. Damit!!!!

Thanks so much! You have given me hope! I will go through the process you have given me and let you know how it goes.

I have been working through installing Raspberry Pints using the step by step instructions. I can use a computer, install software and follow directions but I am by no means adept at working with Linux. I have worked through the installation process and started over reformatting my memory card...

Thanks JonyMac, My new brewery project has just begun. I am so pumped to get this info.

Hey JonyMac, Can you tell us a little more about how you created your menu board/computer screen? What software did you use to create it etc/ Thanks, Tom

Absolutely Awesome! I too spent last year building an electric brewery/pub in my basement but mine pales in comparison to yours. Very nice design (I see some similarities to Kal's) and I love all the rustic accents. Tom P.S. Here is my build...
