    iBrewmaster vs. Beersmith2

    Beersmith2 is a Windows app, plain and simple. It's directly ported to Mac but looks and runs like Windows. This alone made me shy away from it, despite it's power. I have not used iBrewmaster, and I've found that BeerAlchemy is the most "macish" of them all and does most of what I want it to...

    Help Wiring 240V Heating Element

    In my experience a 2000W element will barely boil 5.5 gal. I start with 6.5 then drain off 1.5 and boil it on the stovetop. I'll add this back in the last 10 min or so of the boil...

    Hobbit Brew?

    I am so ashamed... I'm only finding this thread now. I don't have much to add that has not been already said, but I have to say that I agree that the basic ale of the Shire would have to be a Mild. But other options would be there, especially for special occasions. Some kind of bitter, porter...

    Accelerated Fermentation Schedule (In time for Christmas??)

    Just brew a smaller beer like a bitter or mild. These would be easily ready by Christmas. See the most recent issue of Zymurgy.

    2.5 Tier Brew Stand - Design Questions

    I have a similar setup that I really like. I have a burner under the mash tun and HLT doubles as electric HERMS. I'm glad I have the extra clearances though, because the HLT gets hot if either of the other burners are on...
