Just picked up a blichmann Brewcommander and I’m having someone wire 240v/30A circuit. The Brewcommander 240v system OOTB has an L6-30 plug which plugs directly into an L6-30R receptacle for power. The guy doing the wiring told me that I can’t wire 240 to an L6-30R receptacle, that I’ll need...

I was recently gifted a used keg that I intend on converting to an HLT. Upon cutting open the top I discovered the entire interior surface is "pitted" with rust spots (photo attached). Is this a lost cause? Should I attempt to find another keg in better condition? I don't want this imparting...

Any advice on how to best de-burr the strut edges after cutting? A metal file? Sanding drum? Thx!

Do you think something like this would work for a reservoir: My plan is to add a "T" connector to the same glycol line that I had to fill, and then run this tubing up to where it is more accessible. I've added a valve to the tubing to make opening it pretty easy. The question is, is it best...

SHE'S ALIVE! My Zymatic works like new again. Thanks for your helpful tips & teardown guide @Mike Howard! Now to just add a reservoir similar to others have described and I should be good to go for the next time.

Hi all, I'm in the same boat as most of you with the hex loop/fatal error#1/glycol issue. If anyone has the zymatic tear down instructions to fix the hex loop/glycol issue could you please email to me at [email protected]? Thank you thank you thank you in advance!!

It seems it is getting harder and harder to find jugs of pure RO water these days. Most manufacturers are now slapping a "with minerals added" on their labels. This results in it being very difficult to start from a "clean slate" water profile when brewing. If you are taking water chemistry...

Hi All, my 15gal brew kettle has 3 ports; current configuration is: ball valve (bottom #1), sight glass (bottom #2), and thermometer (middle). I am thinking of removing the sight glass and instead installing a whirlpool return arm, however most of them are designed for top ports, with the arm...

Has anyone used this information to come up with a more accurate recipe for Sculpin or had any success? Seems none of the clone recipes I can dig up include CTZ or Galena, for example.

I'd love to give it a whirl as well and will let you know my thoughts. I work with helping to QA pre release software and would be happy to provide advise. Feel free to PM me a login. Thx!

What did you use to drill the hole in the lid? Would a generic drill bit suffice or should I spring for an expensive titanium/carbide bit?

Looking to try and brew a Baltic Porter-esque GF recipe. Does anyone have any ideas as to where to start? Quinoa? Malt some GF Oats? I mainly brew AG at this point but if anyone has any ideas or recipes it would be much appreciated! Thx

I've traditionally used store-bought spring water to brew, but I'd like to build a water filter hose attachment for future use. My question is, what do we need to worry about here in the Phoenix area in terms of water additives? Chlorine? Chloramine? Something else? I just want to make sure...

Before & after. :) Freezer was big enough to fit a 20# co2 + 3 corny's with room to grow. Promised my wife that 1 tap will always have a gluten-free variety and she was happy.

Just moved up to Cave Creek. If there are any other brewers in the area that would like a brewing partner then drop me a PM!

I'm helplessly in love with this IPA from Buelton, CA... Has anyone been able to come close to cloning Figueroa Mountain's "Hoppy Poppy IPA"?
