Does anybody know what these are made of? My guess is Buna-n. http://www.kegconnection.com/beer-washer-shank-tailpiece-washer/ It might be a part of my OCD'ness but I would like to have it in silicone. Thanks, -G

I just wanted to show y'all how I rack my beer out of my sanke fermenters, it is the same basic hardware that I have for my Blichmann beer gun. Here is my CO2 setup that I am purging the keg on the ground after sanitizing so I can transfer under CO2. P1000414 by HDIr0n, on Flickr...

So I built a keg cleaner to clean my sankes/cornies/plate chiller. I have noticed that after cleaning and storing it for a few days that it smells horrible. I was really hoping to be able to store it and re-use it to save some money so I didn't have to make up a fresh batch every time I needed...

I was wondering if anybody could recommend some fluids for my pH meter. I have found these sachets but couldn't find any reviews on them. http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00DEPJEL4/?tag=skimlinks_replacement-20 I do kind of like the idea of sachets, and then I might get a 500ml bottle of the...

Does anybody have any experience with one of these? http://www.thermoworks.com/products/ph/8689ph_meter.html#ProductDescription I have been looking into a pH meter lately and this one seems pretty decent. Any feedback would be great. Thanks, -G

So usually in beer I cold crash my beer to get the yeast to drop out where I want the FG to be at or just before. Do I use the same process to drop out the 71B yeast? I am a few points above where I want to be 1.006 ( I am at 1.011) I am going to keg the mead so I can carbonate it to where I...

I am getting rid of a bunch of extra stuff I have had laying around since I downsized to a 2 vessel Brutus 20, along with other stuff I have changed in the past few years. 1x Fermentap Sightglass that I am asking $15 for, I no longer need it since it was on my HLT. 4x 0-250F thermometers...

I am looking to buy 1 or 2, 7.75 gallon slim sanke kegs for fermenters. I am in the Houston, Tx area but can pay for shipping. Thanks, -G

I currently have a Hurricane/Banjo 10" low pressure burner. I have been having problems getting the fuel/air mixture right and I want to try out one of the 10 jet burners from http://www.topfoodservice.com/restaurantsupplies/KECABJ.html I am running a 11" WC LPG propane regulator from...

I always have kegged so I don't really know the answer to this one. I have a beer that is finishing up fermentation, and I am going to keg 5 gallons of it and force carbonate that amount, and I am going to fill 2 x 1 gallon polypins/cubetainers for some cask beer that I want to naturally...

I am having a tough time trying to wire up my buzzer alarm to my timer. Can somebody help me figure out which terminals I need to wire into my buzzer. I already have the timer part working along with the reset and pause switches. Now I can't for the life of me figure out how to wire up my...

I am tearing apart my previous weldless failure, and changing the format to a Brutus 20 ish setup. I have a Bottom draining MLT, that has a false bottom and I am going to use a BIAB to speed cleanup. I am going to incorporate my 50' IC for my HERMS coil and use my Auber Ins. PID to keep my mash...

I am looking at upgrading my weldless disaster of a stand to a Blingman Top Tier. The versatility of it has sold me on it, my only problem is my bottom draining MLT. I will still have 3 vessels that I can utilize for very large beers that need the extra sparging. What I am envisioning is...

I am trying to figure out what is the thread pattern/size on the back of bottling spigots. I am debating on trying to make a racking port with one, and I am offshore at the moment so I can't just run to my LHBS and buy one and take it to HD/Lowes. Thanks, -G

I am looking at getting 2 50lb one for when I do a 11 gallon batch and installing a better bottle racking port like autobaun70 did in this thread link I am also looking at getting 2 for fermenting 6 gallons as well. Does anybody know what size that would equate to? Thanks, -G

So I am curious as to what y'all have for a return on your MLT for recirculation/sparging. At the moment I have a hole drilled in my lid and it is connected to a piece of silicone tubing that I set on top of the grain bed. I did have a ring that I made from loc-line, though I didn't like how far...

So we are buying a new house, and now the uncertainty begins. I now have a HERMS setup for electric/propane with an E-HLT using 110v and a propane BK. So a lot of the houses I have been looking at/ have a contract in have Natural Gas in the Garage. There are less that have 210v to the garage...

Can you switch a RTD (Auber) from one thermowell to another thermowell, do they even have RTD's that can fit in a thermowell? What I am not sure about is how long it takes to auto-tune a RTD. I was curious as to using one in my BK auto-tuned and one in my MLT to just to show the temp in the...

So I will be buying a house soon, the one we are considering the most and the way I am leaning towards configuring my brewery is having 30A service and a 15A service in the garage. So this is what I am thinking as a setup. Having everything controlled by Auber PIDs, a 5500w/4500w in the HLT , a...

So, I know the name is pretty oxymoronic but I would love to do a sessionable golden strong i.e. not 9%. So if anybody has done this before I would love to hear about it. This is the recipe I was thinking about Mash @ 158 for 60-90min Pilsner (Belgium) 8lb Cara-Pils 1lb...
