    Raspberry Kolsh - Raspberry in secondary - how much time on fruit?

    Hey folks, I let my kolsh sit in primary for two weeks at 62F. Transferred to secondary and dumped in my 3 pint can of raspberry puree. How long should I let this sit on the fruit in secondary for max flavor? I'd read that you pull most flavor out of the puree after a week. Is this accurate?

    Chugger Pump Shield?

    I've used a cut out gallon milk jug for a coffee bean funnel for seven years now. There's a lot of good materials that go in to our recycling bin.

    Chugger Pump Shield?

    These are great for a multitude of uses. I used them as washers between two pieces of wood so they could pivot as well as a slider for another piece of wood with felt pads on them.

    My mini son of a fermenter inspired build

    I don't want to dedicate room for a fridge in my house at this time. This stores with the fermenter in it so it doesn't take up much more room. This has evolved a bit. Uses the 6.5 gallon Genesis fermenter. Next thing I'd like to replace is the plywood partition with a plastic cutting board...

    Brewer's Edge Mash & Boil

    This. I have an eyelet in a stud in the ceiling. I use a strap like this which is easy to pull down on to raise the basket outta the kettle. Push the lever to lower, etc. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000X1YUZC/?tag=skimlinks_replacement-20 Also, if you build a stand for your M&B, you can have...

    This is about what it was. I'll see how this next run goes with scraping that area occasionally when I stir in the future to knock off build-up.
