Check BREWTREE web site. Even though they are not really in business they have reams of details about their stuff including photos, schematics and full plans I believe. If space is not an issue go for it if it is the price of a pump or two is really not that bad. I have a hybrid system to...

Wow! That is sweet!

What do you think the best method for finding said leak? Disconnect everything and start over with more Teflon tape?

So I am on my second brew with the single March and installed the purge valve like many others. That seems to work to get the initial prime but then I seem to loose prime during my fly sparge a couple of times. I then need to quickly open the purge valve to get things going again. Any ideas...

WOW! Completely Deserved man! Nice work...between you and Lonnie I have my work cut out for me!

Thanks! That helps a lot.

Great Rig 5 Thumbs! I am getting ready to start planning mine and would love to get some more detail about how your system works? For example. Have you just incorporated the lids like Mr.Mac? Or are you doing things another way? Thanks for the information. Great build... and beutiful. I...

Is that with the Plexi still?

Any problems with your sparge arm staying put? I have a similar set up but have not developed a means to hold it at the height I want. That means I end up sitting there holding the damn thing with a hot pad! Super Fun and inefficient!

I will gladly add to these props! SWMBO and I have not brewed in over 8 years and finally got back into it. I honestly felt intimidated with all of the advances that have happened since I last brewed. Thanks to all on this forum and in HBT.com in general for putting me at ease with all the...

There are a few threads that discuss this. I added the bleeder valve and had a very successful brew day. No problems all day with the exception of losing prime once during the sparge. Closed the out flow, opened the bleeder, then then closed it off and all was good. I went with the March...

Thanks B. When you say "hex" you mean the pump head? Thanks! :o

Few extra McMaster fittings will be on my doorstep tonight so I will rig up the purge valve and see how it goes. I too watched Bobby's Vid and it worked the first time but then I kept having problems through out the rest of the brew. I will definitely try a few times before we get the brew...

I am curious about the pump head orientation. I have only seen them with the "OUT" pointing up or horizontal. Have you had any problems with this losing prime or starting prime with it? Thanks!

Here is mine but it had a crap load of problems last night. You can see the list of problems on this thread. https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f51/brew-day-disaster-179287/

Wow! That is great information. I really appreciate it. Well done and credit well deserved! Thanks for this. I think I remember you posting a parts list earlier with suppliers so I am going to go check this out. I can't wait to brew so I will have to try and replicate this in phases. Just...

Count me in! This is REDUNCULOUS!

Thankfully my SWMBO is the Brew Mistress! I am in charge of equipment and dispensing... and of course the all important taste test. She saw this, just looked at me and said, "mother's day is Sunday, when are you going to build me this!" Plans, parts list and other details would be much...
