Yeah, I actually listened to that pod cast last night while coming home from NH. It has tons of information. After listening to both parts of it, I think that I may switch sanitizers to StarSans. Does anyone have any advice or suggestions related to that sanitizer?

So according to the Iodophor Bottle, it says a cap full of sanitizer per 2.5 gal of water. If you add too much, does it make the sanitizer not work as well? Also I was just futzin around MoreBeer.com and they say Iodophor is a 5-10 minute contact time, I think the bottle says 2 minute. what...

I've been thinking about this for a while now..... Imagine a 10Gal rubber maid cooler, with a hoop screen outlet port. (It seems like everyone is doing this now...) but what if you put a thermocouple in there with a hot water heating element, and a PID controller that was programmable for...

How much is the correct amount of yeast? Also, yes I found sassifrass in a health food store. The best bet is to look for a health food store or a tea shop.

I'll have to try the plastic bottles for the next batch.

So...I made some root beer this Sunday. It is supposed to carbonate for 2 days. My batch yielded 6 Grolsch bottles. Today i was supposed to burp them to check carbonation. There was a krausen layer on the bottle. I ignored it, and burped it. I was on the phone with my girlfriend, as i...

What size hardware do you suggest, 3/8", or 1/2"?

I need to upgrade to this style. I've been fighting with a plastic false bottom.

Just to let everyone know...Solid Edge is free off their website. Its a 300Mb file. I haven't gotten into it, but it is the full program from what I have seen of it. http://www.plm.automation.siemens.com/en_us/products/velocity/solidedge/free2d/new_user.shtml

Hey, I am trying to make a temperature controlled mash tun with a hot water heater element that is able to do step mashes automatically. Does anyone know of a controller that could work? It needs to be a PID controller, and programable.

Got one of those too...It broke after 2 weeks of solid use.

I just want to get one for buying the old school TURBO GRAFIX and NES games.

I think that American Idol should have been in the "WTF: Help me understand this recent cultural phenomena" thread

Buy 2 lengths of tubing, make two chillers and submerge one in a bucket of ice water and another in your wort, and run water through them in series. This will chill it wicked quick.

You sound like a friend of mine...."Hey wanna put new shocks in my car this weekend???" At least he pays in beer.

I've never used one of these, but I am a total fabrication geek, that works as an engineer, I totally want to build one of these one day (with my own tweaks of course). One question though....HOW DO YOU CLEAN AND SANITIZE IT??? You have all the valves, and pipe or hose, do you just circulate...

Nice setup! When I move up to a keggle I think I'll have to build one of those!

I have used my 1 pig once. I got it for a b-day gift from my parents that wanted to get me some brewing stuff. It foamed like crazy, and I don't think I'll use it again. for 50 bucks, I could have gotten the refractometer I've been wanting.
