Possibly interested in the camlocks but I cant see the pictures on my phone, it says the attachment could not be found. Can you give me a list of what you have or upload another picture?

My last brew with a 15.5Lb grain bill I calculated the same and came up with 80% efficiency. I set my bag in a collander that sits perfectly into a 5 gallon bucket and squeeze/push till nothing comes out. I do it in a few steps. Squeeze to get a good bit of wort out dump into kettle. Rotate...

PM sent.

I brewed a Maris Otter Amarillo smash yesterday while I was working from home. It's happily bubbling away in the fermentor now. I might make this my working from home rititual on fridays.

I'm in the rinse and shake vigorously after pouring, place in dishwasher with all other dirty dishes crowd. Store upside down wherever I can find space. A day or two before bottling fill dishwasher with bottles only and wash on high heat and dry. Bottling day starsan in the vinator a couple...

Whoever designs these tiny sinks that cant fit more than a plate obviously doesnt cook and utilize the sink. I wash my equipment in the tub right now and haye it, it makes it a chore. When i get around to my brew room i'm getting the biggest sink possible.

I brewed the original recipe on a wim and my LHBS had Brewers Best Sweet Orange Peel on the shelf so thats what I used. Myself and two others that have tried it think it taste good. I think its very drinkable and I'm definitely making another batch. Below is the recipe I followed. I might...

Blue Moon clone, bottled it last week and it is very drinkable.

My last brew session was one of those, what do I have to do tonight while everyone is asleep on a friday night so I started my "starter" when I got home from work. I dumped everything into the fermentor 5-6 hours after initial pitch, it sat on the stir plate working its magic while I did...

First picture is pre-boil. I was a little short going into my fermenter. Had less than 5.25 and i was shooting for 5.5. I need to adjust my boil off to a minimum of 1.25g/hr and grain absorption to .07 or .06. Gravity was 1.055 corrected. My effiency took a little hit because of my boil off. If...

Below is what I put together from scouring through the thread. I based my recipe off the IBU grabity readings Wayne gave throughout thethread. The grain bill is basically a 50/40/10 split. I set my mash and boil to 60 ninutes. I have notbrewed this but I am planning too within the next week...

Brew day was 3/18/2017 5.5 gallons into the fermenter with a gravity of 1.063 sitting at 69 degrees. I pitched us-05 and let it sit on the kitchen tile for a day and a half and the temp dropped to 65-66. I then moved it to the basement with a concrete floor and forgot about it. I checked...
