Homebrew coach?

[racehead]

Working out kinks in my new brew-room and looking for a commercial (or alternatively VERY experienced homebrewer) to hang out for my next brew day (Fairfield County, CT).

e-HERMS 20g setup

Will supply homebrew and snacks plus maybe a slave to clean up.

Any takers?

Perhaps you could J oin a homebrew club, should be some experienced Brewers found there.

What’s your level of experience?

Started extract in early ‘00s, built my new brewery this spring and started all-grain. Never brewed a beer my friends (and I) didnt love. Brewed about 100 gals so far all-grain - looking to get better.

Beer Troll Coach asking...How are you getting the moisture out?

This pic was from just before the vent hood was installed.

Beer Troll ...change all the plugs to GFCI.... Not bashing you ..it is really sweet set up.. you asked for a coach.. I don't see why after 1View attachment 601899 00 batches..

100 gals or so (maybe 80), not batches! Just looking to smooth the edges of the process by having a pro look over my shoulder.

Do you like the quick connect.

 

[racehead]

Batches are 15gals - grain bill is typically 30-45 lbs total

I like the quick connects - never used cams

 

[racehead]

Are you kegging to 15 gallon kegs? Are you from ferment ing in a 15 gallon keg

1/2 bbl conical -> 5 gal kegs

I could prolly help you out if I had more brewing experience than you do, but I don't

I might could be able to help you improve your drinking skills tho.

EDIT: That's a really nice brew room you got there.

did you have problems with the pumps ?

I have basically the same setup. Follow the "Brew Day Step-by-Step" instructions at theelectricbrewery.com

Ha, I'm right in South Windsor, CT and I have the same spike system and fermenter! I brew in my garage though... I wish I had room inside the house for this. I have had this system for about 2 years and have done roughly 25 batches. Someone posted above to follow Kal's brewday step-by-step, which I agree with and is what I used to get used to this system (he also has a 20 gal HERMS). You can also check out the spike system thread on this website that I and many others have posted very useful information into (https://www.homebrewtalk.com/forum/threads/spike-complete-system.599487/). After you peruse these (if you haven't already) feel free to message me if you have some questions! I'm probably an hour or so away from you and have a 7 month old, so it's a little tough to brew right now, but I have been! Always looking for people to brew with, but not sure how much you know (I'm sure I could teach you some things, but I'm sure I could learn from you as well).

Can you share your typical process?
Recipe?
Water profile and treatment?
