What came in the mail for you today?

[kingmatt]

A spunding valve, a clear beer draught system and a new glass for football season!

 

[jimyson]

A replacement glass from @imasickboy. The box happened to have some beer in it too!! Thanks dude!

 

[raclark69]

Just unpacked my new burner and 10 gal kettle. Going to give BIAB a try. After I brew a Blue Moon clone for the wife (bribery gets you everywhere)

 

[JCasey1992]

A day late but worth sharing. Ten gallon batches are in my future! Also got a counterflow chiller and some butcher paper and a bbq thermometer for a brisket I'm smoking tomorrow.

Ha! I think he’s actually the one that broke it or something else so it never came my way. I think it may have even been like 6 or 7 FotD’s ago. I honestly have no real memory of the details but he pulled through and sent a box. Class act!

 

[imasickboy]

Yup. I chipped the glass prior to shipment. (Actually did the exact same thing to the same glass intended for @Homercidal way back.)

In each case, the receiver got some additional beer in the second shipment because of the delay. @jimyson got a bunch because his was waaaaay late.

I'll probably stop offering teku's in FotD, because of how terrible I am at safely getting them into the box for shipment.

Bunch of TC fittings to convert the electric BAIB tea urn and fermenter to a proper set of sanitary fittings from AliExpress.

In the photo, bottom left to right clockwise, hose barbs, blanking plates, seals, carbide holesaw, sampling port for fermenter, dip tube, bulkhead TC ports, thermowell, 1/2" BSP males to attach to my ball valves and clamps.

All well machined, clean with no sharp edges, swarf or cutting chips left behind. Very impressed.

 

[Abrayton]

3 pounds of delicious

 

[JCasey1992]

5 pounds of Apricots from @TwistedGray. Thanks for the stickers and the bottle of your Pluot Sour! Per your recommendation, I'll drink it as a day late birthday beer on the 26th! Also I'll be sure to send you some of what I use the fruit in! Debating on throwing it in a cream ale or an American wheat at this point!

It'll probably take a week to bottle condition; just leave it in a corner somewhere (not in a fridge, of course). Enjoy! I only used the apricots in a pale and in a sour, but wheat and cream would be good, too!

 

[Brewbuzzard]

I thought the post office had lost this but it arrived.

 

[Cavpilot2000]

1 liter of Sinamar and 100 grams of Whirlfloc G!

 

[Cavpilot2000]

Clear Beer systems for 4 kegs.

I have I think 8 or 9 of the things - it's a sickness.

 

[Phildo253]

To use with my CuSS Tricoil immersion chiller View attachment 641335

I have the 1/3 hp pump from the same manufacturer. Worked very well cleaning kegs and kegerator tap lines for 10 months and then the motor failed. Called the company on the one year warranty and they are replacing. No hassles. Would recommend.

Hey I got 2L of Sinamar, 100g of Whirlfloc G and 100g of PVPP last week. Somebody's been busy.

 

[Robert65]

I bought the 4, then got another when I realized I could have 5 kegs in the pipeline at any time, now I'm thinking about getting one for the fermenter. It's kind of like when I started rigging things up with EVA barrier tubing, just can't stop.

 

[firerat]

QD fittings.

Yeah, I got one, verified I loved them, bought four more, then recently realized I was short (I just had 8 full kegs and I sometimes use it in the fermenter too). I think I'm all set now.
I think...

And I'm going to run my 4mm EVA beer tubing tonight. Tomorrow my 5mm should arrive that I plan to use for gas lines.

Any reason you chose 5mm for the gas? I just used 4mm all around because I had it in good supply. (Wanted to make a spunding valve with the Blow Tie, had to buy 39 feet, so I've got 38 feet left, made another spunding valve, still 37 feet, and just kept finding things to do with it! [emoji23] )

Just because it's easier to fit on standard 1/4" barbs. I'm not yet going full with the push fittings yet. Now I'll have 39' of each for any purpose I may need.
It's so relatively cheap, why not have a supply!

 

[Brewbuzzard]

I think we're getting off course

 

[pshankstar]

I know @TheEagleRising has a package at his front door today. [emoji6]

 

[walker111]

3 pounds of hops
45 ft of beer line
4 muslin bags
4 bags of candi syrup

 

[TwistedGray]

Some homebrew and commercials from @ehk089 - I'll share the NEIPA's with a friend who can stomach them better than I.

ps: If you find yourself near the beltway, check out Franklin's (I think it's in Hyattsville); they have some neat stuff there (paid parking, if my memory is correct).

 

[jturman35]

My first set of labels from Grogtag! Impressed with quality and how fast I received them!

You certainly pay the price, but their labels are quite nice! (And you can reuse them easily)

 

[jturman35]

$31 for 36 shipped to my door in 3 days ain’t bad in my opinion.

 

[Cavpilot2000]

3 flow control ball lock QDs and a blowtie spunding valve.

I'd need 55 for the average batch and only a few would be able to be reused. I don't repeat brews very often - so for me that is extremely expensive... I use a sharpie and write on the cap.
