So...... how did it turn out? Sorry to necro post but I'm interested for my RIS.

Hallerobin, So as I said I'm interested in Cider and have been looking at a Caramel Apple Cider recipe on here. I'm wondering, it calls for 2 cups raw sugar and I have a ton of corn sugar that I'm not using, do you think it would be OK to use this?

Thanks I understand it now. I also have brewer's friend so I'll have to check that out. I also need to take time and determine my boil off/losses but that's a different issue all together. Thanks again.

Threesheets, can you explain this a little better? I'm confused. So say I'm brewing a 5 gallon batch with an estimated S.G. of 1.056 and I measure 1.047 at flameout then I would add 1 pound of DME to bring it up to where I want to be? If that's correct, do you keep boiling for another 15...

Welcome hallerobin. I'm down in Sanford so a bit of a ways but my wife works in Durham and when I happen to be up that way I'll stop into Bull City. I have done one cider but I didn't like the recipe I did (had hops which maybe it shouldn't have) but I would like to do another in the future...

IN watching your videos I think I might try the super seal method that he mentioned. I noticed that our Keezer's only hold 3.5oz. of refrigerant where he was working with an 8.5oz. system so that will make things tricky but I'm sure I can figure it out. We make Heat Pumps where I work so we...

Jason, I have the same model and the same thing happened, right down to the green oxidation on the drier. When you refilled it, did you hear any additional leaking? Also, did you put one of those valves on both the suction side and the high pressure side? Thanks, Dave

Awesome build. Where does the drip tray "drip" to or is it just a pull out and dump it?

So I'm a little late to this party but I wanted to run something by everyone. I'm currently working on my system and I was hoping to get away with one pump and a series of solenoid valves (electric/automated). Do you think it's possible ot use this method? I was thinking maybe I could drain...

I will say it's a little crazy but being from the pool industry I'm a little biased. I think froma thermodynamics standpoint it makes perfect sense (huge body of water and lower temperature). I would suggest that you take a return fitting and modify it so it runs through a counterflow chiller...

@Brewitt, Thanks for the tutorial.
