    New Spike Fermenter Issues

    I just wanted to update the post. Spike accepted the return, and I ended up upgrading to the CF10. They were more than accommodating. But I agree with most of you. I am a little OCD and don't like marks on my new equipment. Over the past few months, I have spent thousands on new Spike equipment...

    New Spike Fermenter Issues

    Here are pictures of the marks. They may be hard to see, but they are all around the side of the inside. They honestly look like something was rubbing really hard on the inside, and they wouldn't come out with cleaning or a barkeeper's friend.

    New Spike Fermenter Issues

    Hey guys, This past month I bought the Sike Solo bottom drain system and the whole setup including the cart, cooler, pump, etc. I am super happy with the hot side! I also purchased a Spike conical fermenter that showed up this week. When I opened the package the inside of the fermenter seems...

    New Kegerator Help

    I found this little gem on morebeer.com. It should do the trick for my clearance issue.

    New Kegerator Help

    Yea, I noticed that also. Luckily, I confirmed it wasn't leaking from that point, but I will still fix it. I didn't find out about the clearance issue until after getting the keg :(. But it works right now; luckily, the leak stopped when I removed the ball lock post, then reseated the washer and...

    New Kegerator Help

    So I just got myself a new Komos kegerator. I currently have a Sanke keg connection with ball lock posts on it for easy swapping. One problem I am having is that I get a leak if I tighten the beverage ball lock too much because the rubber washer between the sanke coupler and ball lock post pops...

    Grainfather G40 vs. Brewzilla Gen 4

    Personal curiosity: I seriously am stuck. I am an engineer and overanalyze everything. I'm hoping to get people's honest opinions and thoughts because I don't own either and can only do so much research.

    Grainfather G40 vs. Brewzilla Gen 4

    Many brewers have likely pondered this question, and the answer could significantly vary depending on the user's preferences. Currently, the competition for the top spot in brewing systems is fierce. The Grainfather, with its app and automated brewing process, certainly leads in innovation...

    I don't mind doing multiple dumps. I'm wondering if Brewzilla Gen 4 has an accessory to help with that. I'm not a fan of hop spiders, but I can use it if it's a problem. The G40 seems really nice, but I don't really know if the price is ACTUALLY worth it over the Brewzilla.

    Do you guys put anything in the water to prevent bacteria growth? My cooler would be in my basement, so I just wanna make sure the water inside of it doesn't get nasty.

    Help Me Build My Home Brewery Setup on My Budget.

    Let's say I went with the full spike setup. Do you know if its possible to use their TC-100 Cooling kit with some Cooler setup while I wait to get a glycol chiller?

    I make 5-10 gallon batches. I agree Spike seems to have great gear, but it is extremely expensive.

    Help Me Build My Home Brewery Setup on My Budget.

    For the past few years, I've honed my brewing skills using a modest setup: a kettle on the stove, alongside some plastic buckets and carboys. After diligently saving, I'm ready to invest in my first all-grain system, adhering to the philosophy of prioritizing quality to ensure a lasting...
