I just built a new eBIAB system, so I've stepped up from doing 1 gallon batches in a small thermos mash tun, to two gallon batches. The problem is, I've got room for 2 gallons in my fermentation chamber (small mini fridge with temp controller) So, now instead of being able to do a batch a week...

I've just gotten my eBIAB system built, PID tuned and rocking along. I put off the pump and recirculation until I had everything set up, but now I am ready. I think I understand the basic design from what I have seen. A 1/2" NPT T, with the pump in to one side, the thermocouple in the other and...

Thanks for the feedback everyone. I ended up getting a new Bayou 24qt with the basket, it was cheap enough (about the same as custom false bottom like the one above), and I won't have to worry about much. I've put in the order for everything except the pump. I figure I'll get the system up and...

I turned my old mini-fridge into a temp controlled (STC-1000) fermentation chamber for my small 1 gallon batches awhile back. It worked great, and still is holding temps perfectly, but I'm getting a ton of condenstation leaking now as it cools and shuts off regularly. It is located in my attic...

I've got my parts list assembled, and I think I know what I am doing now. I'm aiming to build a small (2/3 gallon) eBIAB system using 120v heating elements, a PID controller and a re-circulation pump. I've read plenty here and understand 95 percent of the process. I just have a few last minute...

I'm on my second batch, my first in a 5 gallon, more legitimate kit then my first Mr. Beer batch. I noticed heavy bubbling from the airlock a day after beginning fermentation, but it has since stopped entirely. There is no foaming on the surface (krausen, right?), and I totally forgot to take an...
