    Full 10 gal Eherms set up

    Not sure how to update original post but I have added a 1.5" tc port at the top of the boil kettle to accomdate a steam condenser. Steam condenser not included in original price but could be added or I can provide a parts list. Have videos of the condenser in action works great

    Full 10 gal Eherms set up

    $3000 willing to deliver in the south east for travel expenses. Located in the birmingham al area. Not looking to separate unless all items are accounted for. Full 10 gallon eherms system. I have been building this system for years. It is my dream set up but over the past 6 years I have...

    Boil kettle condenser - no overhead ventilation needed

    Yes exactly. My initial test, when running the wrong hose type for my water supply, I had a lot of the mist entering my kettle. At that point there were a couple variables that were different. #1 I had the T fitting mounted directly to the kettle. I have now added the elbow to move it away. I...

    Boil kettle condenser - no overhead ventilation needed

    Yes it is pulling steam at the angle shown in the pics. I did have too much hose sitting in the sink at first which filled with water and blocked the flow. I trimmed the hose where it just hanging into the sink and it flowed great after that.

    Boil kettle condenser - no overhead ventilation needed

    Boil testing right now seems to be working like a champ. Only snags I got were forgetting to turn the element down which caused steam to escape and drain hose was too long and filling w water. All of my fittings are 1.5" TC do it looks like it doesn't have to be 2"

    Boil kettle condenser - no overhead ventilation needed

    about to pull the trigger on this unless I'm way off base. The fittings are rated for misting systems. My concern is plastic screwing into metal NPT cross threading / leaking. Again this is out of my comfort zone so I may be worried for nothing.

    Boil kettle condenser - no overhead ventilation needed

    Thanks for the help. I have been brewing a while but not used to playing w this pressure range. Sorry to be a bother but all of the fittings I am finding are either bulky plastic non threaded or push fittings that are specifically for "air only" I have been searching a couple hours and am not...

    Boil kettle condenser - no overhead ventilation needed

    So I tried tried putting one of these together w a 9.49gph nosel and have blown 3 hoses. I am just running straight off my sink on cam and groove fittings. What am I doing wrong here? Is there a different hose something reinforced? I'm currently using standard hose w stainless hose clamps.

    My Brewery... laundry mud room build

    Ahhh I see what you/he did there. Yea we may have have to “accidentally” trip the breaker a few times to ensure there is no laundry on brew day.

    My Brewery... laundry mud room build

    Luckily this being and old spa room it had a spa panel so I was able to run the panel off it plus have room for a couple of outlets on separate breakers. I ran a new line from the main panel for the dryer so I could keep it on the same breaker it was on previously.

    My Brewery... laundry mud room build

    I had looked at this option I was not sure I would have the head space in my keggle to keep the wort from spilling into it during the boil. Plus I already have a vortex inline fan I just need to build a box. Really cool though when I up grade kettles I will be looking into this for sure.

    My Brewery... laundry mud room build

    All the “wood” on the walls and floors is actually ceramic tile, but to be honest I’m glad you couldn’t tell from the pictures!

    My Brewery... laundry mud room build

    Thank you! Not quite as epic as some stuff I’ve seen here, but I think it’s going to work really well for me and make my brew days a blast.

    My Brewery... laundry mud room build

    Yes it is. 65 gal African ciclid set up. Was planning on using that wall for my conicals and some more cabinets, but we had to move the fish tank when we were laying hard woods in the living room. I might move it back at some point as I need more room, but I’m not in any rush after the pain of...

    My Brewery... laundry mud room build

    I have been out of brewing for a bit but have always been planning on getting back into it. So over the past few years I have been collecting parts to build my dream set up. There is nothing new or all that exciting about my build. It’s a Kal clone (I would say plain and simple but that sounds...

    "polishing your keg" is more than a clever euphemism

    Sorry to keep hashing this thread up, but I am working on polishing a couple kegs and I am burning through polishing pads like no one's business. I am three stepping: Med, Fine, Polish. I thought it was because I was using the new pads (by new I mean not gator grip) that lowes carries. I went...
