Do you have a link to the 1.5" solenoid valves? I've been trying to find some reasonably priced for my bottom drain.

Have you run this pump yet? How loud is it? I'm looking for something with higher flow to try to get a better whirlpool going through my chiller but am also trying to find something quiet. I'm setting up a brewery in my basement and feel like the chiggers I have now are too loud.

I have some kegs without spears and I'm starting to keg in sanke

I'm located in western PA.

I'm looking for 5 total.

I'm looking for a few sanke D drop in spears and retaining rings. If anyone has them laying around from making keggles.

I did a test when I first got mine with just water and the coldest I could get the fermenter was 36F with the glycol at 26F. It wasn't because the chiller couldn't handle it, but because there was ice forming on the coils inside the fermenter and reducing the heat transfer. Probably be able to...

Then I would wire it to any digital input with the 4.7k resistor the same way that it would be wired to a mega (like in the schematic you have on the BruControl website).

That's sounds like a good idea of adding it on later. I ordered the wemos you had linked and will stick with them. I think the only thing that I don't have figured out is the temperature sensors. What would you recommend and how do you have them wired? As you can tell all of this is new to me...

@smort Thanks for all the info. I'll have to start getting parts ordered up. Instead of the wemos you linked could I use: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/Wemos-MINI-D1-ESP32-ESP-32S-WIFI-Bluetooth-ESP8266-Module-CP2104-For-Arduino/32834344071.html?spm=2114.10010108.1000015.6.625278840RJ63E I...

That is an awesome setup you have. Do you have anymore information on the pressure sensor for your Fermenters? Parts list would be great and how everything is wired up (I don't know much about electronics, programming etc but I can follow directions :-) ) Does it just open a solenoid valve when...

I'm looking at getting two jacketed conicals, and I am trying to decide on what sizes to get. Right now I'm looking at getting them from Brewers Hardware, but I am open to other options. The few big things I want are jacketed, able to hold pressure 15psi or so, and welded fittings. Brewers...

Just getting into coffee roasting and brewing. Built a roaster about two months ago and have been enjoying good coffee for once. Until this point i have been using a hand grinder and doing the pour over method with good results. Anyways my beautiful wife got me a new grinder for my...

I would be in for 5# as well. Just started roasting so I don't know much about different beans. So whatever everyone thinks is good . . . I could probably be talked into 10# if it helps out.
