    Garage fermentation temp control

    Ok, so, update. Moved into a new house and have a huge basement. Still thinking of building an insulated box to house either the Fast ferment conical or carboys and using a heat mat to heat the inside of the box. Now my question is, can I just put a heat mat in the box, close the door or lid...

    Collapsible Wood Gravity Fed Brew Structure

    Great set up, exactly what I'm looking for. Do you have the plans and dimensions that you could share? I can't seem to figure out the whole sketch-up thing. How tall is the piece that stores under the main piece?

    Boil time

    Hi everyone, I have a question I have never really thought about until now. Do you start your brew timer after the hot break, or, do you start it at the first sign of a boil? Example: 60 min boil, do you start the 60 min after the hot break, or at first sign of boil? I've always started...

    Garage fermentation temp control

    Ok, so I'm getting this unit from a friend of mine, it works, I know, I've used it. :mug: It has a Inkbird controller, which has a plug for heating and cooling, along with it. It holds up to 3 kegs and a Co2 tank. Up to this point, it's only been used for a keezer. My question is, what do I...

    Water Chemistry Calculator

    Hi guys, do any of you know of a program that will let you start off with a water profile, input the water profile goals, and then it would tell you what you need as far as brewing salts and amounts to add? Like hoe many grams or tsp and so forth? I've tried to understand the most common ones...

    That was the idea I had, just use the controller to heat it up.
