    Irish Stout Ode To Arthur, Irish Stout (Guinness Clone)

    Great video- If you don't have a carbonating keg lid buy one- it makes a world of difference. Make sure to leave the carbing stone on until the keg kicks. Connect to beer gas- I usually start at about 35 psi and I will adjust as needed. I normally dispense pressure between 25-35 psi- I...

    Electric Brewing Question

    Thanks for the reply- I would use a PID to control the element. It looks like in your design (every design that I have seen) the 5500 watt element is only capable of putting out of 1375w as it is only being pushed by a 120v circuit. I guess my question is more along the lines of- Can a 120V...

    Electric Brewing Question

    I was just curious if you could power a 5500 watt element using an SSR with an AC adapter for a laptop: Something like this...

    My E-BIAB Setup

    Yes, I am using 120V 15 amps. I am using a 1500 watt element which draws a bit less than 15 amps. I only have 15 amps to work with in my Apt. I've been brewing a finished 3-3.5 gallons of beer and have had had no issues with boiling the total column. I have boiled up to 4.5 gallons of wort with...

    My E-BIAB Setup

    This is my setup for 3 gallon BIAB batches. I use an electric heating element and a controller with a PID. I also use a small pump to reticulate during mash. I recently moved into an apartment and could not bring my all grain brewing equipment. This setup has made me fall back in love with...

    American Pale Ale Cascades / Orange Pale Ale

    I brewed this today. I was using a new PID and did not run an auto-tune……overshot my mash temp. Mashed a bit high….ok quite a bit high… so it will be interesting to see how this comes out. Other than that another good brew day. Thanks for the recipe.
