This was more accurate for my temps than beer smith. I am going back to this, ever since brewing with beer smith my beer hasn't been as tasty. I may have settings wrong, but that calculator gave me great beer.

Do you mean that you put it across the top of the pot and the lid on the top of that? Or do you push it down lower in the pot?

Beautiful panel on the door, love how it ties the whole look together. What dimensions did you make it and where did you get it from? Great job.

Hey, I have a 5500w heat stick from brew hardware and I love it, but I am also terrified of it. After bringing the mash up to temp and shutting it off, I leave it to hang far out of the way so I have no chance of bumping into it. When I go to put it back in to boil I know that it is cold. But...

I need to plug into a l6-30p outlet. Could I just get an l6-30 extension cord, strip the middle and cut the hots, use the two hots in and two hots out? Does this device replace the dspr1 and ssr+ heat sink? Seems super cheap. My goal is to dial my 5500w heat stick down to 60% once I reach boil.

Currently I am using clarity ferm and regular grains. I want to move into 100% gluten free grains though because I don't know if there is a cumulative effect from clarity ferm. There is a Canadian website who said their supplier of GF grains hasn't sent them any or been in contact with them.

Yes please! I would be interested in millet and buckwheat, I am in Ontario. I only brew 5 gallon batches once every 4 weeks.

Congrats on taking the plunge! Enjoy the process. Just tasted my first all grain and it is delicious. Take notes so you can improve upon the small errors.

I love my wort chiller. But you can DIY easily and cheaply to fit perfectly in your pot.

Can you post a photo and quick thoughts on your recipe now that you have left it a few weeks?

Home brew supplies.ca says they will have gluten free all grains soon. Does anyone know of other suppliers in Canada?

Got home and it is doing well and looking healthy in the chamber. I was hit with a nice wall of hops when I opened the lid.

I brewed a west coast ipa recipe. 12# 2-row, 1# victory malt and 1# carafoam. The hops were 1oz centennial at 60 and 2oz citra and 2oz simcoe at 5min. The yeast has yet to start but I am going to relax and go to work and hope that tonight I see some bubble action on it. I started with some good...

Great, thank you for taking the time to address my concern. Glad to have my first full brew session under my belt.

Thanks, I will attempt a reading at the end of this just so I can get better at taking them. Thank you for the link. I used some old ski pants but I think I'll keep at eye for something a bit bigger. This is a big kettle so there is a lot of empty space up top. The 5500w stick got it to a boil...

Ok thanks. She's a bit big to go in the oven. I wrapped some ski pants around her though. It is at 50 minutes and 142 now

First off, thanks for all of the info you have all provided. I have been silently reading for a few weeks and after 1 extract i jumped into biab. I am using a heat stick and I think it caused pockets of hot water. My temp was reading really nicely perfectly at 150 during my mash (currently 25...

Hi Bobby, I have a 16 gal kettle which is 19" inches high and 15.5 inches wide. I am looking to order your hot-rod stick with a 5500 w element, would that be able to fit under the 14" false bottom if I put the 3.5" feet on it? I plan on putting a 90 degree bend on the hot-rod. Or would it...

new to your podcast, going to give it a listen! Thanks
