Any experience in keg or fermenter spunding and never using CO2 for distribution? I have had a few batches that got a lot less fresh after force carb or keeping on tap for some time. I think this is due to oxygen ingress. I have some 10 liter beer kegs to use for this. I am OK with...

I've done several searches with no luck. I built a controller for a 240 V element with SSR/PID in the past, I've got that down. (thanks to info gained on this site, thanks all :mug:) My question is can I put a SSVR for phase control in series with that SSR ? motivation/ features I want...

So I've been working on a design for a single vessel setup. Anybody use a tubular flexible heating element before? Any last minute things I should be concerned about? I am going to coil the element (bend it yourself) around the bottom of a Bayou Classic 82 quart pot. (I realize I could do...

I know they exist, http://www.repairclinic.com/PartDetail/Heating-Element/8057077/762937 , this one would be perfect if I had a giant pot. I want a circular element like the following link. I cant tell if this is stainless, I dont think it is. (Frigidaire costumer support was no good.)...

First of all, Auberins makes good products and have great service from my experience. What I am about to say is probly true for most PIDs that a homebrewer would use. After several successful runs with my SYL-(SSR output) PID unit on a heat exchanger I decided to use the unit in COOLING mode...

I had a good belgium IPA at delerium cafe in Brussels, and I can not (for some reason) remember what the name of it was. It was on tap/ the page for it was a green logo (I know that sounds dumb) and it was bout 10%. Oh yea and that was this summer about the end of July. Anyway, has anyone...

It seems I just missed the bulk grain group buy for the Atlanta people. I make the drive from Atlanta, GA to Cincinnati, OH a couple times a year. Q? Is there are shop/supplier with good deals on 50/55 lb bags of grain along this route. I can get this grain locally for $55-65, but have...

Is there a resource that can tell me general information about how Specific water profiles will work with different beer styles?? I've been looking but can only find specific water profiles not paired with beers they will accommodate. Thanks, David

I have a Auber SYL-2352 as seen here. 1/16 DIN PID Temperature Controller (Relay Output) [SYL-2342] - $44.50 : auberins.com, Temperature control solutions for home and industry So I had everything connected, and I am fairly certain it was correct, but when I plugged in the power the...

Where did you get your PID, SSR, Thermocoupler??? I was planning a HERMS build. What components do you guys have?? What great deals are out there?? I've been trolling through so many posts and it would be good to get everybodies ideas in one place. Im looking for good deals, I dont need...

Anybody built a rotating arm similar to what is seen here NORTHERN BREWER: All-Grain Equipment ? Is it even worth it to have the thing rotating? Please post your pictures of Rotating Sparge arms David

Suppose I legally obtain a Sanke keg. Would it be possible to weld a 304 stainless steel funnel, such as the one listed at mcmaster.com, in order to make a semi-conical fermenter. The funnel: 4359T6 Corrosion-Resistant Type 304 SS Funnel 64 oz Capacity, 8-3/8" Top OD, 9-1/2" O'all...

Has anyone ever grown hops in alabama? Also lets say that I had a well established crown, if I had hops in a field unattended, how much poorer would plant production be that properly cared for / trained hop vines?

Lets say I want to ferment a regular 5 gallon batch in 1 gallon jugs to do some experimenting... will the fermentation still be efficient? Just curious
