Hello, I have a brew stand which has been giving me issues. When there are no pots on it, it lights up great and gets really hot; however, when I put my kettles on it, the flames are really weak and I can barely get anything to boil. I'm wondering if the diameter of the pot is too big and it's...

Hello, I have a single tiered, 3 banjo burner stand. I use 30 gallon Boilermaker pots and not only does it take forever to heat them up, I can't ever get a rolling boil. I even use a heat stick, but it doesn't seem to do any good. I assume I'm not using the burners correctly. I have adjusted...

I just scored 2 medical O2 tanks and a regulator from Craigslist. I wanted to test it to make sure, so I hooked everything up, used the wrench to turn it on, and it seems to be leaking. I think it's leaking from the regulator as the gasket seems to be a little worn. Does anyone have a local...

Hello, I purchased a Love TS from Brewers Hardware and am having issues getting it to work with my Arudino. I'm following the Thermistor examples on the Arduino site; however, I can't seem to get it to read correctly. I used the calculator to get my a, b, and c values, but I can never get it to...

I had bought a 19" drip tray for my bar build, but didn't think to get one with a drain at the time. Well, I decided I was having none of that, so I added one (sorry there aren't more pictures). Parts: 1/4" NPT to 1/4" hose barb (<$4.00) 5 1/2" Washers (5@$0.20) (You can get away with a nut if...

I've done quite a bit of searching, but I can't seem to find an answer that satisfies my situation. I got an STC-1000 for my fermentation chamber. I've read about sticking it to the outside of a carboy, but I don't like that option. It just doesn't seem like it can effectively register the...

Hello, I'm brewing a Tripel recipe below and thought about the possibility of combining these two yeasts together. I've never done a combination blend, but figured it might be interesting. Has anyone tried these two before? Should I combine them together and pitch together, or start with one...

I just got off the phone with the chemist at the Cleveland Water Department. This is their current profile: Name: Cleveland, OH PH: 7.70 Ions: Calcium: 33.00 Magnesium: 7.10 Sodium: 10.70 Sulfate: 44.00 Chloride: 20.00 Bicarbonate: 97.60 (calculated using HCO3 (ppm) Alkalinity as...

I'm trying to plan one of a few recipes for my wedding. This is a rosemary saison with rosemary from my fiancee's mom's garden. She sent over a huge stock of them, but I have no idea how much is too much. Additionally, I wanted to get the slightest hint of honey, so there's some honey malt in...

I am trying to clean up some of my past brewing equipment, so I'm listing it here: 4 used, but cleaned, economy faucets $13 each. One is missing the back O-ring, I'll let that go for $10. 1 never used sparge arm $20 (similar to this: http://www.midwestsupplies.com/rigid-copper-sparge-arm.html...

I have practically finished my keezer build, but I am stuck on the tapbox. I built stock that's 19" wide that I'd love to dovetail, but my dovetail machine can only handle stock that's up to 12" long. I'm wondering if there are any brewers/builders on this forum in the OH area (specifically...

I bought a Brewhemoth IC back in the day when I got my Brewhemoth, but found out that I have absolutely no idea how to properly hook it up, that is, I don't know how to keep what would be circulating in there cool. I read Yuri_Rage's thread on building a chilled conical and was wondering if...

Hello, I'm having an issue with some of my kegs. I have my pressure set at 12 psi. When I start dispensing, everything comes out fine, then all of a sudden, I see foam coming up the line, it bursts out, and then foams up everything that's in the glass already. It makes it take very long to get...

Hello, I brewed up a batch of beer that's now in kegs. I tried it yesterday and it's underhopped. I'm wondering about how to hop it after the fact. I know I can get some hops oils, but I'm wondering if I can concentrate some hops pellets I already have and add them to the keg as a liquid? I was...

Hello, I did a search, but came up short. I just went to dump my trub from my conical (lots of dry hops in a hop bag and yeast) and it seemed like it dumped a little out, but was just pouring beer out while not doing much to the rest of the trub. I noticed the V Vessel has a yeast collector and...

I made a starter for a 50 gallon batch a week ago on Wednesday for a friend. He won't be able to brew it until next week. The starter was 10 vials of white labs belgian (excessive, probably). Anyways, we're wondering if we'll need to get new yeast or if theres enough for them in there to not...

Hi, I'm looking for 1 or 2 of either. Preferably ball lock and preferably the 3 gallon, but I'd take 2.5. Thanks!

Hello, I bought a greenlee punch from Amazon a while back to punch holes for valves. I finally got my pot today and went ahead to punch the hole. The punch started turning on the thread and then got stuck. I've tried everything I can think of to get it to keep threading, but I can't seem to...
