Those are pricey 😳

Maybe it's down to flow rate, he mentions the flow rates of 1-2 gpm, he's also very inconsistent with his documentation of flow rates I might add. Lol I wonder what this kid would think about all these people trying to brew beer and critiquing his paper. Even the lower end wort pumps are...

Yea I wonder what factors would lead to better performance in line with even cheapo amazon plate chillers? I believe he says the plates are made of 24ga steel, which is inline with some commercial heat exchangers, accord to my quick googling.

Wow that's pretty cool! I wish I did something interesting like that for a school project.

Ah nice, thanks!

Just curious, why isn't there a commercially available plate chiller that can be disassembled and cleaned, similar to what professional breweries use? I assume the obvious answer is cost, but is there another reason I'm missing?

Sorry to hear that, looks like a lot of nice stuff! If you do break it up, I'd be interested in the PH meter.

Question for the group, I've got a working setup using cbpi4, and don't have any issues. From what I gather on the various pieces of documentation, there should be a mobile view for phones/tablets, but when I go to my cbpi instance on my local network on my mobile device, I never see the mobile...

I’ve done it plenty of times with no ill effects. If you are worried about leaving them in the keg too long, you can suspend the Hops in a bag with a piece of dental floss (clean off the mint flavor first), so that when the beer level gets below a certain point, the bag will no longer be...

Also located north of Atlanta - Once I got my ward labs test, I just did my adjustments based on that. No issues here, but I actually think our tap water tastes pretty good. Can’t really tell much difference between filter refrigerator water and what comes out of the sink.

I was sick of my big mouth bubbler transfers taking forever, so I made this top so I could use a floating dip tube and CO2 to get a somewhat closed transfer.

I came across these at a local auction and there’s no way I can use it all, so I figured it’s time to offload some. These are a bit old (2020 crop, 2021 pelletized) and I haven’t always been in control of them, so I can’t guarantee proper storage condition prior to me getting them. Asking $200...

Oh interesting, that might work! Didn’t know that was a thing.

Had this lid fabbed up with a 1.5in tri-clamp welded in, but want to go with a different design. The bail (wire) was reversed to make room for the tri-clamp. This does cause an issue where the black o-ring isn't compressed enough, so it doesn't seal under 0psi. If you put something under the red...

I’ll take it. I’ll also get the label and email it to you if you can give me the box dimensions and weight
