Yeah we use 2x6s to make our riser and found that we should have used 2x8 or 2x10s instead. I have also heard of people drilling through the freezer by using milk or some kind of glue/paste to find the coils. Then drilling between the coils. But I would rather drill through the wood riser and...

I'm in for free goods

One cleaned up well and had no contamination but the other got contaminated again so I will be cleaning again!

Just saw this on minibrew.com: "Easy to Clean and Sterilize All popular cleaning and/or sterilizing agents can be used on our plastic (HDPE) fermenters. They will not harm the inert plastic material. Water at 180 degrees is an excellent sterilizing agent; pour it down the sides of the...

Thanks again guys. And thank you for inexpensive fittings I always buy from you!

Ok will do! We are brewing this week and would love to have good beer asap!

Got an infection during fermentation. See blog and here: https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f11/infection-contamination-diy-conicals-137607/

So we went all out on brewing and are paying for it now i think. We got an infection/contamination on our 3rd brew. And the culprit seems straight forward. Here are our fermenters: We made them out of chemical hoppers and are made of MDPE and this might be the killer. So to start things off...

Updated the blog with recent brews we made. Mustard's Homebrew As for the brutus I am hoping on updating it with a 15.5 Gal Sanke for malt and love controllers very soon. TJ Mustard

More updates soon. Just got a few more things. TJ Mustrad

Does he take orders? I will be looking in about 2 years. TJ Mustard

As to imsoweetadid's reply: that totally sucks about the heat but it looks like if we ever have a problem with an android uprising I'm counting on you! Lonnie Mac, I got the whole idea from you and also saw the redundancy in the B10 design of the extra tank. The only major advantage of the B10...

Yeah we couldn't get the silicone 1/2" tubing and we had to get PEX tubing insted and were very happy that we could even get them to bend this way. (we call it the octopus) The burners are a little high I know, we are thinking of changing to natural gas. We hope this conversion will be a...

I don't think it matters. The resistance changes with temp and if there is no diode then it wouldn't matter. I am known to be wrong alot though. TJ Mustard

Photos are now up and I will update the recipes asap.

Oh yeah the garage is my Uncle's work. Big farm needs a big shop.

Thanks, we just did our first brew day tuesday and I am uploading photos now. The system worked great ecept we couldn't find silicone tubing and had to go with pex for its temperature rating (and relatively cheap). We brew again Saturday and I will have photos again. TJ Mustard

I made two of them from parts much cheaper. TJ Mustard
