    A moment of silence for my brewery.

    Thanks I appreciate aLloyd of the advice and support. It's been a crazy week and I just wanted to think about something else besides the cleanup for a little. There's already a number of ideas running through my head for the new and improved brewery. I guess that's something to look forward to...

    A moment of silence for my brewery.

    Well haven't had time to go through everything and check but there was a bunch of stuff that was damaged and wasn't salvageable because of the mud or it was just broken. One of the main concerns I had was my fermenters are scratched. I was concerned that that would harbor bacteria.

    A moment of silence for my brewery.

    It is with great sadness that I must report on Sunday August 28th, 2016 that my homega brewery met it's untimely end. I live in Connellsville Pennsylvania and last Sunday my house was one of the ones affected by the floods in the area. Fortunately there were no injuries or loss of life. It had...

    Fermentation Chamber Door

    OK, so I got most of the chamber completed the issue I ran into now is the fan. I installed a computer fan for the air flow, but I do not think it will be powerful enough to cool the chamber. The fan I have now is the Insignia 120mm case cooling fan from best buy. Is there another fan I could...

    I was thinking about using the BrewPi but I opted for a Inkbird 308 instead.

    Fermentation Chamber Door

    So I have the foam cut and the box completed (and its relatively square). One issue that I found was that the boards were bowed. To deal with this issue I decided to just glue the lid to the top and I am also going to cut out an access panel to change the ice. To hold it together I used glue...

    Fermentation Chamber Door

    Sure, the outside dimensions are 48" long x 24" wide x 36" tall. For the near future I plan on cooling based on the SOF design. In the future I plan on using a floor model ac to keep it cool in the summer. I was going to use 2"x6"s on the bottom for support and to mount casters on. For the...

    Fermentation Chamber Door

    I am currently building a fermentation chamber using 2" thick foam board. I want to have a door on the front in order to open and load my carboys. The only issue is I'm not sure how to do this. I do not just want to try something and it not work. Also are there any issues with gases from...

    Porter Critique

    I am fairly new to the home brewing process with only about 10 sessions under my belt. I started off with extract kits and quickly realized all grain was the way for me to go. Here is a recipe for a porter that I designed using BeerSmith and brewed my last session that I was looking for some...
