    Who all makes an all metal Counterflow chiller?

    If you're concerned about looks, from what I've seen the copper/copper CFC's are typically a fairly large (and I'd guess slightly cumbersome) overall diameter. Also much harder to get wound tight & neat. If you're just after something that looks sexy, I'd probably just drop the extra coin on...

    Cheap Copper at Home Depot

    My haul: 50' 1/2" ID for $15.03, 60' 3/8" ID for $25.03, 60' 1/2" ID for $27.03, 60' 3/4" ID for $40.03. I feel like a sketchy copper piping stripper with all this tubing in the trunk of my car.

    Helo with Banjo burner and high fuel consumption

    Here's what I did for a windscreen on that burner. I had a huge amount of heat that was coming up the sides of my kettle, causing problems with my sightglass/3 piece valve. I had some small pieces of aluminum flashing laying around, so I pop riveted about 7 or 8 of them together then drilled...

    schramm s mead.

    Michigan's a great place to visit, aside from the quality mead & beer being produced here. Having said that, within a 15 minute or so radius you'll have Schramm's place, B. Nektar and Kuhnhenn to visit. Worthy of a mead-cataion.

    Silicone Camlock Dustcovers

    Anyone ever come across silicone (or rubber) caps/plugs that could serve as dust covers for a/f/b/d camlocks? The SS ones are nice and all, but seem like a lot of overkill. If not, it seems like there would be a market (albeit small/niche) for these things if there was somebody who had a...

    Pump projects and brain farts

    If you're hesitant about cutting the end off the pump plugs you can use a small 3 outlet powerstrip like this for in the box (you can plug power plug for fan into it as well): http://www.amazon.com/dp/B002P5YIC4/?tag=skimlinks_replacement-20 I would just use a pluggable GFCI outlet like this at...

    Wort Pump + CFC Combo Toolbox

    I wanted to share a recent project that I've almost wrapped up. I'd recently acquired a Chugger center inlet pump and a used CFC. I had been piecing equipment together over the last couple months and decided I needed something that was portable. Here it is (almost) finished: Started out...

    Overheating (up the sides) Issue

    Greetings, I'm four brewing days into using a Bayou Classic KA-B4 burner and I'm having some issues with heat control. Specifically, I've got excessive heat coming up the sides of the pot. My setup is 15 gallon generic pot for BIAB. Pot has two welded ports stacked one above the other...

    thermometer tech question

    I'd like to piggyback on this question. I've got a Blichmann 1/2" npt brewmometer that I used one time and ended up with a considerable amount of condensation, that settled into a good 1/2" of standing water in the bottom. I assume that it's sealed with a gasket and somehow crimped, so getting...

    First brew, critique/sanity check

    Greetings, Last night made my first attempt at brewing a beer. I've been lurking HBT/RB Homebrew/BA Homebrew/reddit homebrew forums for a while, and decided to take the plunge last month and picked up one of the MWB beginner kits. Had the gear on hand for a couple weeks and went ahead and...
