I sent them an email just before posting this. I saw that there were some issues with the gasket falling out of the lid so maybe this was a “fix” that was incorporated into newer vessels? We’ll see I guess!

Hi Everyone, I got the green light from the COO (my wife) to use a storage room for my brew space. I found a Viking 460CFM range hood for sale in the local classifieds and I'm looking for people's experience with this as a way to vent the room. I have a 7Gal robobrew right now and I'm curious...

Hi everyone, I've been brewing for about 2 years now. It all started when I found a 1g kit from BrooklynBrewShop at my local Home Goods. After being totally shocked that I could make my own beer, I jumped in head first. I brew all grain with a Robobrew v3 and I own 2 catalysts, an SS Brew...
