I am getting a 15 inch false bottom made so I can make Keg Mashtun. What height should I get the stand made for the middle of the false bottom so that it supports the weight of bigger beers? Cheers

I actually cleaned it before I took a picture but here is 15 inches of Krausen on 12 gallons of beer.

I need 4 of those neoprene black washers that go between the nut and nipple on the shank that's connected to my perlick faucet. Being that I live in Canada the shipping from any online retailer is between $16-29 for the $1.50 worth of parts. Is there anywhere I can get these locally?

Toasted my cheap ebay 40a SSR today. And yes it stuck open when it quit which made me thankful for the element power button. (Thanks again PJ for the diagram) So ebay has cheapy SSR's for around $5 and more expensive brands up to $15. Should I buy 3 cheap ones or 1 more expensive. The...

Is this my first infection? Brown ale brewed sept 11. I usually keg it after 30 days. It looks like small clumps of little bubbles. There is a creamy haze around the outer edge. I recently bumped the temp to 70f. Yeast is wyeast 1272. Cheers

This is kind of a sideline question. If I put the Kombucha Scoby in wort or beer what will happen?

So I am going to build a 4ft x 2ft x 8ft Chamber so that I can comfortably ferment/lager 48 gallons of beer at all times. I am going to use 2x6's and 3/8 ply wood and build insulated panels filled with R22 pink insulation. I will calk all joints. The panels will be made separately and then...

So I want to buy an electric shaver so I shave more often. I don't know the first thing about them. Any must have features?

This is my first time using a liquid yeast and according to the mr malty calculator I need a 2 gallon starter for my 12 gallon brew. Is there a reasonably easy way to make a 2 gallon starter? I don't really want to make a batch under 10 gallons if I don't have to. I am using Wyeast 3878...

It's hard for me to get anything but Nottingham where I live. I love Belgians and plan on purchasing some Wyeast Trappist High Gravity 3787. Does this make sense? Or is there a better way? 1. Make a appropriate starter with the original pack and brew a small beer ~5% Beer "A" 2. Wash...

There's a marathon on tonight and it's a good show. But is it really real? Is the stuff stolen? Sometimes there is a whole store's worth of stuff in there. The one guy pulled out $9000+ worth of fishing stuff. The other guy pulled out $6000+ worth of coins. Who the hell leave...

So I got a couple of coopers kits for Christmas. Not my thing since I brew all grain but I figured I would use the LME. I made up a couple of recipes to Dr them and brewed them up. The red ale came out with an OG 1.042 and FG 1.012. I used the Coopers yeast. The stout came out with an OG...

Will one of these cheap ones work? I will use a 12v dc computer fan and a dc cell phone charger. Cheers

Just another reason why we love beer! Some links for your reading plesure Link Link Link Cheers :mug:

I changed the setting on my barley crusher to the smallest setting. .015 according to their website, I don't have a feeler gauge. It took forever to crush the grain and it came out like flour. I did my usual BIAB 12 gallon starting at 159 degrees. I had to mash in really really really slowly...

I made my first 10 gallon batch today and everything was perfect. Except I put the keggle in my big Rubbermaid container full of snowy/slush. This normally works great and chill the beer very quick. after 30 min I cam out to look at it and the temp was perfect but the wort was down a bit. I...

I have been AG brewing for a bit and my beers are turning out awesome. For Christmas I was given a few coopers kits ( Stout, Canadian Blonde and Dark Ale) I'm pretty sure Coopers Kits are LME with Hops added but I have never used one. I know that the kit requests 2lbs of sugar added and...

Yeah so I blew it tonight. I want to tell the story so please feel free to laugh. It's the kind of story that is funnier when it happens to someone else. I wanted to make Ed Worts Haus Pale and I changed it to a BIAB recipe. This would be my 2nd BIAB and the last one, I think, worked out...

K I read all the threads and the wiki and I still don't understand. Is it adding hops to the mash? Before doughing in?
