    Length in Primary when bottling

    I am checking gravity daily during my fermentation. Most of my beers seem to stabilize at final gravity by day 3. It seems that the trend is to let the beer "clean up" for a few more days before packaging. Can anyone see an issue with bottling once final gravity is reached and stable for say 2...

    Switched from Dry to Liquid yeast...weird!

    Hello, Here are some things I noticed from switching to liquid yeast with starters after using mostly dry yeasts for the past year. 1. Fermentation kicks off way faster and finishes really fast! I did a 1.060 NEIPA using a 1L starter of 1.036. WHOA! Airlock activity within hours and final...

    Can I use this as a Grain Mill Motor?

    Can anyone tell me if these specs are adequate to use this for a 2 roller Monster Mill crusher? Saw it in a thrift store but no idea if it is suitable.

    Daisy Chain 30 amp Receptacles?

    Does anyone know if daisy chaining a 2nd 30amp 240v receptacle from my oven receptacle for the purpose of brewing would be safe? We would NOT be using both at the same time and there would be a 30 amp GFCI breaker installed on the panel. Thoughts?

After pulling apart multiple sockets, I also discovered that the 15 amp receptacles are split duplex receptacles. So now I have changed out my 2 x 2000w elements for 1500w and bought 2 inline gfci cords to...

    240v switch?

    Can anyone tell me if this switch could be used to switch a 5500w element on and off? Just looking for the simplest method to turn my boil element on and off. I guess I am a little confused about the "120/277 V" in the description. 30amp GFCI breaker already in place. Also, would any other...

    Switch for 2000w 120v element?

    Looking for some ideas. I have a Kal type 2 gang electrical box housing my 2000w 120v element. If is fed by a 20amp gfci protected circuit. I don't want a control box but I want to have a switch to turn the element on/off. I plan to fix the switch to the gang box cover plate. Will a 20 amp...
