I have used this recipe multiple times with different yeasts and every yeast variety has worked out great. The American Ale yeast was very good and the Okto-lager yeast was very smooth. My favorite has been Ommegang brewery yeast.

Which "golf ball" did you end up going with? Can you share how you are using it?

I know I'm reviving an older thread, but what size immersion chiller do you have that allows you to cool 25g in 15 minutes. I currently use a plate chiller and always worry about how clean it really is. I would be all for using the plate chiller as a pre chiller.

Have you brewed this in a while? I'm a huge Vienna malt fan.

I have to give this recipe props b/c I've brewed it multiple times and it is great every time. Thanks again.

Keep us informed of your findings. Great thread.

Mike...that is great news.

I'm getting myself confused b/c I have independent outlets which is causing a whole bunch more wire nuts.

Yeah, that is what I thought. The entire thing is insulated with R-32 and sealed with HVAC sliver tape. There is no cool air moving out or hot air moving in. I pulled the a sanke out to rack it over and noticed the freezer was an ice block, so maybe I need some air movement inside the chamber...

Ok. I built a small fermentation chamber that will hold two sanke fermentors and two cornies. It will hold 48* consantly running, so now I need to buy a bigger fridge to see if I can get the temperature to drop and have the fridge cycle on and off. So, with that being said, is there a way...

thanks.

How did it turn out?

Ok, I'm about to make the ebay purchase from one of the recommended ebay sellers; however, I've got one question...after looking at each seller, they have multiple temperature controllers (that look the same...

I just completed building my chamber and I'm having issues getting the chamber to drop below 48*. The fridge stays on the entire time and it just won't drop. I cannot find any leaks, but when I built the chamber I have the fridge enclosed except for the back and 1" up the side. Am I "choking"...

Randar, I'm just following you around on HBT. Can you explain your transfering under pressure techniques with both the Carboy caps and the Brewer's Hardware kit? On a side note, what size (model) fridge are you using for your fermentation chamber? I'm having a hard time getting mine to...

Weirdboy - You've got it, I haven't had any issues with mash chemistry, but then again, maybe I do and just don't know it. I might just have to go with the silicone, but I was trying to find other options.

I've been connecting a potable water hose to the hot side of my washing machine hook up in the garage. It really helps speed up the strike water heating. However, due to the hose not being rated for hot water, over the past year it has burst a couple times and over the past two weeks it has...

What kind of heating times are you expecting? Which elements are you going to use? How long did it take to receive your stuff?

Have you received the Stout Tank setup? How is it?

Mike, Any updates on the burner?
