Looks like MoreBeer is recalling Slingblade curved elements. Got an email from them a couple of days ago requesting I stop using it immediately due to a recently identified safety issue. They have offered to replace it (No ETA when new ones will be in stock) or refund purchase. AND they are...

Just checked my decanted wort from a completed (24 hrs @74F on a stir plate) and refrigerated (24 hr) starter. Gravity was 1.018 - 50% attenuation. Final attenuation (Wyeast 3726 Farmhouse, 74-79%) should have been 1.008-1.009. Anyone know of a way to calculate growth rate based on apparent...

I have been using a home-built 3-kettle eHERMS for a few years, and am very happy with it with one exception: Step-up mash temp changes take too long (15 gal HLT, 5.5kW element, 50'x1/2"OD coil). To improve this, I am thinking of one of the following two changes: Option #1: Use my stainless CFC...

Opened 2 packs of WLP500 this morning, with a Best By date of 4/15/20 (mfg date 10/17/19, 86% viability per my calcs), and both liquid packs were med-dark brown. I'm used to seeing a creamy white or off-white slurry, and I'm concerned that the yeast might be dead, or partially dead. Both...

Anyone used these yet? Looks like they use the standard 1.5 TC ferrule fitting. Huge benefit - they will not interfere with the trub cone after whirlpool, like the ripple ones do. Slightly lower wattage (4500w) for my 15 gal kettle, but I run my current 5.5K element at 55% during the boil.

Brewbuilt 10 Gal with 2 welded fittings, incl thermowell/thermometer, 3-piece valve, false bottom with quick-connect dip tube. Has been used in an eHerms system for about 12 batches. Selling because I am moving up in batch size. Recirculation port (weldless from brewhardware.com) was added to...

Brewbuilt 10 Gal kettle and Brewbuilt false bottom, incl QC diptube and fitting. I have used this for 8 batches is my e-HERMS system, and previously as a boil kettle for 4 batches. Meticulously cleaned with PBW after every brew. Has worked flawlessly as a MT with chugger pump running at full...

Hi, New to this forum. I'm going to be putting an e-brewing panel together this weekend based on the enclosed diagram. Any thoughts/suggestions would be welcome. My equip is the standard 3-pot setup: 240V/5.5kW element in HLT with re-circ, MT recirc through HERMS, 2 pumps, 240/120 30A power...
