    Keggle electric setup with 25g coleman cooler mash tun (full system)

    Hello all, I have recently upgraded my system to a 50 gallon spikes system, so I am selling off my old keggle setup. I've brewed on it for probably 5 years and brewed countless beers. Just brewed a batch as recently as last week on it. But alas I don't have the space to store it, so it must go...

    **FREE*** Bottle collection

    I probably have roughly 350 bottles in my collection, they're just taking up way too much space. They range from things like sam adams winter lager to Lou Pepe 2008 gueuze to Russian River Framboise for a cure. So there are definitely a good amount of rare ones in there as well as some off the...

Does anyone know where i can...

    Question about dry hopping

    I know i screwed up, so lets get that out of the way to begin with. Im trying to figure out what to do with this beer now. Ok, so i made an IPA seemed like a pretty solid recipe. I dry hopped for about 5 days with pellets in the secondary. Siphon got all jacked up and i end up stirring up...

    Heat stick questions (im sure im gonna get flamed for this but im confused)

    Ok, got just a few questions about this. I've read through numerous DIY threads and i think im probably over thinking this. Ok, first im working with a 15A GFI, and i was going to build a 1500W heat stick to supplement my electric stove. Im assuming to use 14/3 wire on this application? Also...

    Electric stove questions/options???

    Ok so i've been AG brewing for about 6 months now, and i've got a good process going with my gas stove. The problem is i have to move in about 2 weeks, and my new place has an electric stove. Now i've been doing a bit of research and it seem i might give a canning element a try first and see how...

    Muntons Carb tabs

    I picked up a bag of these because i figured it'd be easier for the little experimental batch i did. The thing that throws me off is their scale for carbonation. 5-lots of carb 4-normal 3-light. Who's opinion is this? I would've rather them put a carbonation volumes per tab. Does anyone know...

    Fermented out in 3 days, wow!

    Ok so i brewed up my first stout on Friday, using wlp013 (london ale yeast) and for the first 2 days it bubbled like crazy, really slowed down by monday morning, came home wasn't bubbling at all. Took a sample and gravity seems to be ~1.015. OG was 1.065. So is it possible its done already? I...

    Issues with washed yeast flavor

    I recently made a batch of wheat beer and decided since i was going to be making more this summer, i'd wash it and save it. I made another batch of the same beer only this time i used the washed yeast. Im thinking possibly not enough healthy cells or possibly something else. But the fermentation...

    5 gallon mash tun question

    Im thinking about making up a smaller 5 gallon mash tun for small experimental batches. I can probably build one up for under 30$ thats why im even contemplating doing it. Yay or nay? I have a 70qt. coleman xtreme, and i think it'd be a little overkill for a 2-3 gallon batch, side question...

    Waterproofing thermometer

    Ok so i have a thermocouple style thermometer, there is a plastic shielding that the wire goes into that is two pieces. I've noticed bubbles coming from the end and i'd like to seal it off. I wasnt sure what would be ok to seal it with though. Super glue? High temp silicone...

    More flavor out of a wheat beer??

    Made this recipe, and it tasted great and all, but it seemed a little light in flavor. The flavor of the beer was very good, although it just seemed like the flavor wasn't as pronounced as i would've like it. Now im trying to figure out what adjustments can be made to give it a little more...
