    Spice, Herb, or Vegetable Beer Bourbon Vanilla Porter (AG)

    I have some that's been in a keg, under pretty constant temp, and constant temp and it's friggin amazing. Fantastic. I have some bottles that have not been cold since they were bottled and I'm curious how they are, but the stuff that's been cold since it went into the keg over two years ago is...

    I need one bend in my stainless HERMS coil

    Is your Pottstown location in your info outdated or are Collegeville and Pottstown where you live/work? I don't have a weekend available to run out that way until Labor Day at the earliest.

    Anybody in Lancaster, Reading, York, etc?

    I need one bend in my stainless HERMS coil

    You're farther east than I thought. My wife works in Coatesville and that's already almost an hour. How much do you think it'd be to ship it to Lititz if you'd let me borrow and ship it back?

    I need one bend in my stainless HERMS coil

    I'm north of Lancaster and I ordered a coil from Stainless Brewing to match up with my current ports. I've decided I want to move the exit of the coil to the bottom of the keg for better drainage and cleaning. Anyone have a tubing bender or whatever you want to call it, guessing it's...

    Anyone have a tubing bender for 1/2" stainless? I'd like to relocate the exit port for my HERMS coil.

    Replacing my heating elements

    A couple things going on that prompted me to replace the elements - my 50A service seems to be stretched to the max when running both 5500W elements and two pumps on 220. It wasn't tripping the breaker, but things were smelling pretty hot in the spa panel. Second, it's been over a year since I...

    Who offers made to order stainless coils?

    Saw them, too. Waiting on Zach to get back to me with some questions about my specific coil. I've been pleased dealing with them in the past.

    Who offers made to order stainless coils?

    I saw that and it seems more suited for their HLT build, not a half barrel keg application.

    Who offers made to order stainless coils?

    Looking for a HERMS coil for my HLT. No special bends, just the two ends lined up for 90* elbow compression fittings. Ports are 13.5" apart and the current copper coil was formed around a ball lock keg. I'm thinking 25' x 1/2" should be plenty since I use a pump to recirculate the water during...

    Side-By-Side Fridge - Fermentation Chamber (with heat)/Keezer combo?

    Was out of town for a bit and hadn't been on the site. I didn't not install any preventative measures to stop air flow. I have a dedicated beer fridge for the kegs and rarely have the temps that far apart that anything runs very long keeping appropriate temps on each side. I simply drilled holes...

    Equally Obnoxious Hockey Trash Talk Thread, eh?

    Man, the intensity of the Leaf hating has reached new levels lately. I like it.

    Equally Obnoxious Hockey Trash Talk Thread, eh?

    Here's to the Hawks being on a losing streak! I don't care for ties, but I hate much worse that a SO win gets the same points, although not counted in a tie breaker, as a regulation win. If the shootout is here to stay, scoring should be 3 for regulation win, 2 for OT win, 1 for SO win, 0...

    Need help canning chili

    Chili was a success. It passed the sniff test after opening the jar and tasted wonderful. No symptoms of botulism or other food born illness.

    Equally Obnoxious Hockey Trash Talk Thread, eh?

    And at 6-2 with under 3:30 to go, we can finally stop talking about this damn streak. I'm sick of the tards calling it an unbeaten streak. Flyers' 35 game streak will never be touched.

    Equally Obnoxious Hockey Trash Talk Thread, eh?

    How about Dan Carcillo's goal last night? Kind of reminds me when I was at Game 3 against the Devils and he scored in OT a few years ago. He scores few goals, but when he does, they're usually meaningful. Saw the Phillies at 1 and the Flyers playoff game immediately after. Not a bad day of...

    Need help canning chili

    I figured I'd post here so y'all didn't think I died or something. We have not tried the chili since canning, but I think I'll get some out soon and report back, hopefully not from the toilet or hospital.
