I made one of these for a buddy and am open to custom designs. It is CNC cut from cedar, the main back portion is 3.5" thick, 27" wide and 16.5" tall. the barrel is also 3.5" thick is hollowed and flips open for access. A temperature control unit is going to be installed to the right of the...

Hi. Res old thread, I turned on the machine again. I use Rhino 3D which is about the hardest software you could use. I could use Blind Squirrel but its not ideal as far as geometry that I can do. Are there other people interested here

Plochers looks easier but needs an outline. Or I guess it could be left as a square tap handle. The cup wouldn't be too hard to model in 3D. The problem with Otter is the bear requires NURBS which is really time consuming and it might be possible to raster to vector the bear but raster to vector...

Retro is an easy one, otter is a hard one

This one would work good

Located in Winnipeg, Canada. I'm happy to ship. If you are interested go ahead and post a pic I would like a good community suggestion and also I need to decide that its a good first candidate.

Hello, as examples of recent work in development: I'd like to do a handle for someone for free to demonstrate to the community. Or if someone wants a sign that's great too. So I will do 1 free handle to see how it goes and if there is interest in buying some. I think many of these...

Sugar water and yeast wash - to stir it properly put my hand in there, and this will be boiled so should it matter? thanks

Hi. I bought some canned Bock German lager. According to the can, no boiling was necessary, just hot water into the fermenter and then malt and sugar. Then the 21 or so litres of water it took to make up 23 total volume. Yeast. So this is what I did and it bubbled good for about 4 days and...

Hi. I made 8 litres of pilsner and then mistakenly chilled it after moving it into 2 litre bottles from the fermentor (at about 3 weeks of fermenting). I did this because the beer tasted ok coming right out of the fermentor. The day after they were chilled, the beer tasted horrible. After I...

Thank you very much was mostly concerned that I had contaminated the malt and had get on this. Now there is time to learn properly before beginning.

Hi, brand new to all this. Is it ok to use chlorine tap water to rinse out a fermentation pail? I would take more time on this but not knowing what was in the malt I opened it and stuck my thumb in by accident, so now I need to brew sooner rather than later. I hope this doesn't destroy the...
