I just bought a Tramontina 126-can beverage center fridge from Sam’s to use as a fermentation chamber for my Brew Bucket. I intended to put this in my unfinished basement and plug it into a 20 amp GFCI outlet that I’m having installed. Well, I got home and read the owners manual for the fridge...

Yes, I was twisting it before attempting to unplug it. After some struggling, I was finally able to free the female end of the cord from the element. In the course of doing so, I must have bent the offending prong enough to get it aligned with the plug. I can now plug and unplug the element...

A good alternative is to buy an inexpensive 12” stainless stockpot lid from a restaurant supply store. Here’s how mine turned out: The view on the underside of the lid: Upon reading your post more closely, it seems you already have the herms coil configured to install in the keg wall. So, my...

Counterflow chiller and hop strainer are sold

Rdenisjr - have you gotten any of my PMs? I am using the HBT iPhone app and not sure if the PM function is working.

Sent you a pm

Sale of chiller and hop filter pending.

Actually, yes. Ames and Ankeny both have municipal airports. Both are within 15 minutes of where I live.

I’m parting with several components of my old system as I am building a 3-vessel E-HERMS. 1- Brew Bag mesh bag for brew-in-a-bag all grain brewing. This is sized for an 82-quart gallon Bayou Classic kettle which was 19 inches in diameter and 17 inches tall. $15.00 1- Arbor Fab 10” tall by 6”...
