My new hop filter, made to my custom dimensions and 400 micron stainless screening, from Chad at Arbor Fabricating. Can't wait to use this over the long weekend.

Ordered this over the phone on Monday. Chad said he'd try to get to it by Friday. He had it done and shipped Wednesday and it arrived on Friday. Now that's some great service!!!

He does great work and super fast.

Nice! I picked up a 6" hop filter last week but haven't used it yet.
 
That sucks!

But I'm supposed to go in tonight. I hope they cancel that.

Our day shift got sent home a few hours ago.



Stay warm and safe.

Chemical plant operator. Plant runs 24/7 365. Been nice and warm for the last couple hours. Bout to have to get back out in it for a bit. Very glad I'm on days this week.
 
New 5# Aluminum CO2 Tank
Taprite Regulator
CM Becker Ball Lock Gas Connector
6' Hose
Ball Lock Carbonator Cap for Pop Bottles.

This is a carbonation setup for my dad. He doesn't drink much alcohol, but he loves carbonation. So I set him up to be able to carbonate anything he can put in a bottle.

Tested it out and it works like a dream.
 
2 new 5 gallon ball lock corny kegs from Adventures In Homebrewing! Can't wait to start kegging!

Sweet. I brewed twice with it over the weekend. The thing is a miracle.

My ground water is 41f so I can run my convolutus chiller practically wide open if the hops are blocked. That has never been the case before now. My chill sessions used to be 30 to 45 minutes, half of that for the last two gallons so I didn't lose vapor lock on the damned hop stopper.

Now I chill 5g into the fermenter in 10 minutes.
 
Bought a fermostat to use on the redbull refrigerator that I picked up. Should make a decent fermentation/lager chamber I think. The grain mill made me excited enough to brew a cream ale at 0200 when I got off work and found it on the door step. My first grain mill, but it seemed to do a decent crush using NB's recommended settings.

Does that Red Bull refrigerator fit a 5-gallon keg? I've seen those on eBay and thought it would look cool with a different wrap on it and a tower on top...
 
They will fit a 5 gallon if you take the basket out. I think you may want to move the fan too. Double check your keg height. Some of the squatty ones would work best. Pin locks they are around 22-22.5 inches I believe. The cooler has 24" to play with
 
I got nothing today. :( UPS won't come down my road because it's covered with snow. So I have 5 of the best cigars I've ever tasted freezing at the ups terminal for a couple more days. They are right next to my daughter's guitar lesson book I assume.
