Well, this is a tale of a brew day that I will not soon forget. At least till the muscle soreness wears of at least. The plan was my doppelganger bock recipe that was the best beer that I brewed last year with my cooler system. A few tweaks to adapt it to my new RIMS rig. Sounds simple enough...

I have a question about an element that I have and plan on using in my MLT RIMS tube. It is a Richmond RP10868LH 120v/1440w resistored stainless steel element. I can't seem to find out what watt density this is. I have even called their tech support but they have untrained phone operators and...

During my last brew while I was sparging my Chugger Pump started seizing constantly. It would start making a horrible noise like it had lost prime. I would turn off, prime, and when I would turn back on the motor would not start. I checked every connection multiple times. After a few minutes it...

My wife Dana and I are going Saterday. Should be a nice day. I've never been to one but I heard it's pretty cool.

I am entering a few of my old brew day notes into Bru'n Water to get a feel for how to use this program and compare the estimated results to my actual measured results. I can't seem to figure out how to enter anything into the desired water profile. It won't alow me to enter any nubers into line...

Hey all. I bought one of these freezer temp controllers from AHS a couple weeks ago. I have a Frigidare 15 cf commercial freezer that I wanted to make a giant keezer out of. This controller replaces the original themostat of the freezer so there is no rigging required. I popped in the thermostat...

I made this last night to help eveny disribute the return from the HERMS. I don't know if it works any better than my old silicone tubing but we'll see.:)

Hi all. This is my first post on HBT though I've been lurking here for info for a few years. Thought you may like seeing this. The stand is built from Super Strut available in the electrical section at Home Depot. All the fittings and camlocks came from Bargain Fittings. Pump from Chugger Pumps...
