    Anybody having issues with Brew Buddy App (iPhone app for BCS)

    Just started two weeks ago. As far as I can tell, no updates to the phone. I open the app, it crashes, open, crash. iTunes store links to a page with no email address of contact info. ECC doesn't have anything to do with it at all. Anyone else having issues or--more importantly--know how...

    30 amp or 50 amp? Pros and cons

    Putting together the pieces for a my new electric brewing rig and now need to install my breakers and spa panel. Before I do, I'd like your thoughts on the pros and cons of a 30 amp vs a 50 amp setup. Not sure if this thread exists elsewhere, but I did search a bit and came up with a few close...

    BCS460 electric build from square one

    As the title says I am going to be starting a BCS build. For the impatient, this is probably going to take a while. I’ll post on occasion as I build/buy things or make improvements but I expect this project to take up to a year. My schedule has me finishing this summer but I am slated...

    SA Barrel Room Collection and 13th Hour

    I had occasion to visit the SA brewery tour yesterday while in Boston. They were selling 3 packs of the Barrel Room collection for $30. All are sold in 750ml bottles. http://www.samueladams.com/enjoy-our-beer/barrel-room.aspx While on the tour the guide also mentioned their new Thirteenth...

    Need some help identifying/sourcing an obscure dip tube for corny keg

    Lurking around here I saw this corny part in a post...Apparently it's from an older corny design that's hard to get. I searched the keg suppliers but no one seems to have this. I want to use this to repair a stripped off post by drilling it out, this looks like it will fit the bill. Anyone...

    My boss lost a bet and has to send me California beers, need recommendations

    Guys, my boss and I have a running bet...Niners versus Giants. We started the argument with who was going to have a better season record. Since the Niners are really bad, I am thinking of offering to break it down into smaller sub-bets to be a nice guy. It's more a gentlemen's bet than...

    Coffin cooling and other lessons I learned while building a keezer

    I am seeing a lot more coffin keezer designs on here recently. Thanks to innovative designs from many great HBT contributors more people are opting for the coffin box design versus the more common ‘through-collar’ design. A coffin keezer means more materials and more work time. For...

    Splicing 3/16 beer line?

    So...I used all the various keg balancing equations for my setup and they all pointed to lines about 5-6 feet long. So I made 6 ea 6 foot runs (mistake) When I hooked up everything and gassed to 12 psi, just kept getting foam. Dropped to 10 psi and still foam. So decided to 'lengthen' a few...

    Show us your electric brewing rig

    Gang, all I have done thus far is acquire a sanke. But I've spent HOURS looking through threads here and saw some great pics and descriptions. When I built my keezer, the most useful thread to me was the 'Show us your Kegerator' thread and I would love to have something like this for electric...

    Kegging-3/16" liquid line on 1/4" shanks/tails?

    Been mowing through kegging forums and the search engine and couldn't seem to find this answer. How concerned should I be with 3/16" line on 1/4" inch shanks/tailpieces? It seems like most vendors only carry the 1/4" shanks. Should I look around more for 3/16" shanks or is this a...

    Easy DIY method to prevent crushed braids

    I inherited a few ½” braids and set about making a cooler Mash Tun, about halfway through I could not decide on a manifold or a braid, as I read a bit on drawbacks for both. In this case, I wound up with a hybrid design, but also reinforced the braids to prevent crushing and stuck...

    DOG LOVERS: I have a year to teach my dog to fetch a beer from the fridge!

    Ok guys, here's the deal... I made a bet while drinking with my buds. He said my dogs are too dumb to learn to fetch a beer from the fridge. We've all seen the beer ad and said that one day we would teach our dog to do this, well my time has come. Allow me to introduce Ike and Bella...

    Hello from New Jersey!

    Hello gang, I've been lurking here for a few months now and decided to sign up. I've read quite a bit here and recently inherited my brother's brew setup. I've been bugging him for 15 years to turn over his setup. Ironically, he stopped brewing when his son was born and decided to cling...
