hello, I am having an issue with my love controllers on my brutus stand that I just built. My problem is that my burners will not kick off when they reach the set point. I am not real familiar with temperature controllers, so im hoping that I am just overlooking something silly, and that...

No reason to only boil 3 gallons if you have this kettle. Do a full boil, no top up water. You will get better hop utilization too.

Seems a little sweet still. any thoughts on amalyse enzyme? If I added just a little, would it drop it just a little, or would it go crazy and drop it like crazy, and dry it out way too much?

I brewed a russian imperial with an og of 1.110 almost 2 months ago. It fermented down rather quickly to 1.040 and stopped. I added a packet of nottingham as i racked to secondary with hopes of it dropping quite a bit more. The new notty has been a beast, and i thought it might do the trick. I...

I have 4 soda kegs for sale. 2 ball locks are in excellent condition and are $40 each. The other ball lock and the pin lock are $35 each due to having loose rubber bases. They still stand fine, just loose which a little epoxy will fix if you so inclined. I have soaked and scrubbed these and...

The other ball lock and the pin lock are in great shape except the rubber bases are coming loose. These two are $40 each. This is nothing that a little epoxy wouldnt fix up if you...

I used that yeast and brought it up to 90°. It still stopped at 1.035. I just left it sit at around 70° and it continued on by itself.

when my non beer geek co worker tried my cream stout and replied " I do not like it, it's too, pause pause pause, stouty"

i get them at a brew pub. they buy them in pallet sized bags, and let me buy at cost. Homebrew club perks! Plus, i get 10 % off at a lhbs opened by a member of the club.

my last couple batches cost me $13, and 18$ for 5.5 gal batches. I get my 2 row for $.50 a pound, and wheat for $.55 lb. Also I used harvested and washed yeast, so I had no cost in that. Most of my money in a batch is in the hops.

I suppose you could try sandwiching the lid with two magnets. That might work.
