I am adding a sub panel to my brew room. Having an electrician come over to hook up but did all the manual cable pulls, etc. I had a 30A GFCI in my old house but it does not work with my sub panel and having a hard time finding one. I guess my question is why do I need one? If I have a sub...

I have a 30 AMP GFCI. Cutler-Hammer Cat No. GFCB230 Had it in my old house, bought a new one and brought it with me to set up in the new place. Not compatible with my panel so had to get a new one. This one is about a year old and only used for my electric set up about 4-5 times. Figure someone...

Going to order a bag from Wilser. However, for those of you with a heating element in yours, how did you 1. Measure the length of the bag? 2. Keep the bag from hitting the element? Want to get one for my 15 gallon kettle but worried about the heating element.

I have been wanting to harvest yeast for a while now. My last brew I emptied the trub, yeast and beer from the conical. Let it sit in the fridge for about 3 weeks now and wanted to start harvesting. However I do not see the distinct line of yeast (Or the three lines everyone talks about...

Starting to do a DIY Stir plate build. When looking at powering it I was curious if it would be safe and ok to use? Thought I would run it by you here to see if anyone might know if it is safe or not.

Hoping to get some helpful insight... Quick background. Started with a 10 gallon kettle, gas to do 5 gallon batches. Purchased one of those 15 gallon clearance Grounded Brewing kettles and had it stashed for a while then ordered their controller (30 AMP) 1 kettle 1 pump. Purchased a Spike...

I am sure I missed the post with this information but can't seem to locate it. Got a Spike CF15 and purchased the carbing stone. First time using the carbing stone and first time kegging as well. So I have watched some videos and also read up but still feel like I am missing something. SO...

Been busy with life, finally brewed a batch in my new electric system. However, boiled it to hard and boiled off 2 gallons instead of 1. Curious what you all set your temp at for boiling, or is it one of those just mess around a few times to figure it out?

So its starting to get cold. Had my beer fermenting and then was going to cold crash for a few weeks. So the blow off tube is starting to suck up water. I have a great idea lets take the tube out and let the water drain out a little to bring it down so it can start to get colder. I assume you...

So I had to go out on a week long work trip. Today is bottling day (just got back a couple days ago). I went in to get the beer and take some readings see if it was ready. Noticed the blow off tube is out of the water. So might be exposed to air.. Is it ok to still bottle or should I just dump it?

Starting to brew more frequently now and trying to fly sparge. I know there are other ways and I plan to try them all but this is my process I have used twice. Once numbers were on, and the next they were off (I wasn't happy overall with the second recipe but thats another story). I watched...

Looking to get the last few pieces for my brewing set up and need a couple pieces for my kegerator. 87112 Looking for a Grain Mill, Perlick and a shank if possible. Thanks!

Searching the word wide webs has me more confused then anything... Got a SS kettle and a fermenter (both SS Brewtech) and both need passivation. Kettle came in, still waiting for the fermenter. So, from what I read, and everyone disagreeing there really is no best way to do it...

I have not brewed a batch in probably 3 years. Between having a new kid, buying a new house and a new job it just was not something I had time to do. However I want to quit my job and open a brewery. Wife said I have to brew all year long first. SOOO.. Here is what I have right now, pretty much...

Came across this forum researching on building a kegerator (or keezer now that I found this place). Used to brew consistently years ago but have only made a couple batches the last 3 years (and one batch of wine). Looking forward to getting back into it! Really excited to build a keezer. I...
