I've been using mine for an extended amount of time now without a hitch

And link to the original build thread: https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f51/easy-stir-plate-362308/#post4515959

I just happened to grab this canister and thought, that looks the same size as my new flack! Presto, 20 minutes later I was done.

Here is an easy and cheap way to build a stir plate that just happens to be just the right size for a 2000 ML Erlenmeyer flask. Parts list: 1) A 2000 ML Erlenmeyer flask. 2) Large empty can of coffee creamer 3) A left over 12V 1000ma power supply from some broken appliance. 4) A rare...

Just a follow up on the build. I have discovered that there are is an aspect of the build that I would change should I do it again. As detailed in the OT, I built metal panels to encase 2 inch hard insulation and just laid them against each other and secured them in place. I have...

No, it is just some of the common home style gasket for around windows and such. It works well beacause it compresses well around the various cords I run inside for temp readings, small fan etc.

It's a 6.5 gal. Mini-Brew Fermenter made by Hobby Bever Co.

I coiled a SS wire onto a round rod and then pulled the coils out lengthwise to form an open and elongated coil spring. I then inserted this into the SS braid. Works perfectly supporting the braid and is uneffected by heat. By the way, my 5 gallon Rubbermaid cooler has seen 6-7 batches without...

I have been using a hair dryer. Heats quickly, has its own fan and was super cheap.

I put a coiled length of SS welding wire inside mine to keep it expanded. It works really well.

I did the Dawson's Multi Grain Red and it's the best I've brewed so far.

Cooling is supplied from a salvaged mini-fridge and regulated with a home built temp controller.

Just enough room to clear my 6.5 gallon conical and the airlock

No wasted space!

Built from light guage galvanized sheet metal and 2" foam insulation. The original mini-fridge t-stat I retained on the side of the cabinet.

Growing up in central VA, my dad had a "well house" that basically was an enclosure to house the well and its pump. It was an 8x8 block wall room 6 feet tall that was roughly 5 feet underground and the remainder above (picture a tornado cellar with a small peaked wood house on top for storage)...

Thank You dcp27!

I started out brewing 3 gallon batches in all grain and have all the related gear sized to this volume. For Christmas, I received a 6.5 gallon Mini-Brew conical and am now on my second batch. The first was an Irish Red, which is my best to date, and I attribute this to the new conical. I...
