so i finally got the holes drilled and the element wired and capped off and sealed and i know i need to ground it to the pot, but what's the best way to do this? ideally i'd like to be able to still remove the element easily but am up for anything. was thinking just to jb weld it to the...

About to go off to a new years party, but made my resolutions while running tonight: 1. Run at least 10k a week for the first 6 months, 20k for the second 2. Enter at least four competitions 3. Brew more! 4. Make it to the second round of the NHC :fro: Happy new years every one!:tank:

So I finally got myself a new drill and finished boring the hole for my electric heater element and everything is water tight without needing any jb weld etc, which is pretty awesome. BUT! I have two (hopefully simple) questions: 1) There's about 1.25 gallons of "dead space" in the kettle...

1. A dry stout (maris otter, a little munich, some chocolate, black patent, oats and a bunch of fuggles) 2. A ginger saison with late addition sorachi ace hops 3. An IIPA chock full of amarillo, centennial and cascades

hey guys, i'm trying to find a rotary switch (15a) that can be used for switching ac power -- i want to be able to direct the power to only device at a time through my "control box" since i'm running this off a single 15a circuit in my house, and each device connected draws 15a, so i only...

is there any reason not to use a bi-metal hole saw to drill a pot? i see most of the posts here mention using a step bit (which i used for the first two holes on my pot), but i gotta drill a 1" hole and i figure why not use a hole saw to save some time?

i mean it's not beer, but it may be the best thing I "brewed" this year! fermentation is done in the summer!

i just hit over 100 gallons of home made beer this year, and only 10 gallons of which were either infected or dumpers. feeling pretty good since it's been just over a year that i've been brewing!

so a few of the locknuts, couplers and elbows have the words china and some other stuff written in what looks like dot-matrix ink on them. should i try to get this off before i use them? how would i go about doing that? thanks!

Hey. Does anyone want to drill a 1" hole in my stainless steel pot for some money or beers or food or something? I just drilled two holes (for a weldless bargain fittings sightglass/thermometer adaptor and for a ball valve), but I need to get the heating element into it. Drilling the...

so i live in an apartment in new york, so i'm a little tight on room (and very envious of those with patios, porches, garages, yard, brew huts, etc). Anyway, I just finished my heatstick, got 10 gallon pot, drilled some holes, attached a spigot, bazooka tube, sight glass and thermo, but I...
