What came in the mail for you today?

[Johow]

Got these glasses, two sets of four of $9 each, 8 nice 22 oz glasses for under $20. Seems like a good deal to me. Bed Bath & Beyond.

 

[Brew_G]

Yesterday (from Farmhouse):

1 lb Cascade
1 lb Centennial
1 lb Amarillo
1 lb EKG
8 oz Galaxy
8 oz Mosaic
8 oz Citra
4 oz Ella
10 lbs Avangard White Wheat

I usually make one big purchase every 8 months or so, in order to take advantage of shipping. I've never used EKG before, and I'm really excited to try them.

A notice from the DMV that if I don't pay a $200 fine for "super speeder" I'm going to have my license suspended.

 

[woo_pig]

Measures liquid flow rate, can be used for a variety of things. Probably HERMS/RIMS.

Probably HERMS/RIMS.

What's it's max temp rating, and where did you buy it?

As previously mentioned they are used for measuring flow rates. Slightly different versions exist for liquids and gasses, but they are basically the same in principle.

I am going to be attaching this to my RIMS rocket so i can monitor my dough in rate (which i run through the RIMS rocket to ensure my strike temp is dead on), then monitor my recirculation flow rate, and finally my lauter flow rate.

It's rated up to 200F. McMaster P/N 4400K63. Mfr P/N Blue-White Industries F-45376L-8. It took me a long time to find this one. Most of the time they are very pricey since their target market is industrial. This is the only one i could find that had a high enough temp spec, the right range, correct fittings, and a reasonable-ish price.

New hops!

 

[Pantherjon]

What do you have to do to earn that title?

Be clocked going 20 over the posted speed limit...

 

[Stillraining]

Big bottle of AstroGlide.

 

[Yeastieboy]

Be clocked going 20 over the posted speed limit...

Is that really what it says on the paperwork? Man, I might speed just to earn that title and hang it up in my brewery. Get a SPRSPDR Plate...

 

[Scout]

Picked up a couple inkbird controllers off eBay. I've got my kegerator plugged into one, and ill use the other on a small chest freezer for fermenting. I just need room in the shop for it.

 

[Onkel_Udo]

Finally upgrading to actual beer faucets from cobra taps after...two decades. The cobra taps are going into a portable 3-keg trashcan-based set-up for taking beer to the track.

So I got, a 2-tap budget kit from AiH, some extra QD's (for transfers), my new favorite dry yeast Mangrove Jack's Newcastle Dark Ale and 10# of Carared (since my LHBS does not carry it)...all to get over $250 to get my $50 off!

 

[BigMack]

I got my insulated fermentation bag. Should make temp control a whole lot easier going forward.

 

[arnobg]

As of now my brewing will forever be changed for the good.
