I have always done 5 gallon batches and just pitched a single packet of dry yeast. I am upgrading equipment to a 20 gallon system and want to start making starters. I also want to over build them to save some for the next starter. All this will help keep the ingredients cost down. I just can’t...
no it worked.... and worked well. answered all my questions and i have come to my conclusion.
I am going to stick with the breweasy and if i want to i can add 50 bucks worth of stuff to turn the BK on the system into a BIAB for 10 gallon batches and 15 gallon lower gravity ones should i...
I am looking at getting a full Tower of Power to control a 240v heating element. I would like a system that is capable of doing finished volumes of 10 and 20 gallon batches.

I have been kicking around the idea of adding a submersible pump in a approximately two gallon tank inside and running an output and return line through a stainless conical fermentor for...
I believe I attached the image correctly, but I am in the planning phase of making my own press. The picture shows a trailer jack being used as the ram. I don't want to use hydraulic, as I like the idea of spinning something on top, but don't really want to go with the normal shaft design...
