Hello everyone!! New to the forum, thought I would post a picture of my set-up.

Nice. Is that in your living area or basement? My family always complains about the odors of active fermentation.

Spare bedroom closet. So far only one batch has been blown off a sulfur smell (reductive?), and that was pretty well contained.

looks like that shelf is going to fall and make a mess!

Sure does, why so much headspace in the fermenters?

Yeah need to fix that... as to the fermenters, it was either that or one carboy full enough to touch the airlock. Overdid the sulfite addition and wanted room for that to blow off as well. Primary has been... sluggish to get started. Finally have some movement in the airlock today (pitched 4 days ago, repitched yesterday).
