I got my hands on 7lbs of fresh local blackberries today. Last year I made strait blackberry wine and loved it, still have a few bottles put away. This time I wanted to do something different. I am going to try and make a good melomel. I am looking to have about 13% ABV so using a mead...

I bought a false bottom cooler conversion. The cooler I have is a gott. Is this too much space around the outside edge. It's .25 to .50 inch all around gap.

So I built a counter flow chiller, one issue I have always had with the normal way is the refrigeration coil is so thin I know I would break it before to long. I instead used a reducer like normal but soldered it on the inside line as well as on the outside to the outer coil to support it. I...

Found these foldback 4500watt 240v elements for $5 a pop at the re-store. Any reason these won't work for a HLT? Thanks.

So I am slowly upgrading my equipment. I am still going to do my boil with a gas fired propane burner, however i am going electric on my Mash so I can control it better. I was initially going to build a recirculating heating coil like built in this thread...

Well I finally got out of my apartment and into a house I own. And the Fiancé has been gracious enough to give me free reign over one particular room in the house. It is an unfinished room, about 120 sq/ft that needs some TLC and a little direction. This room sold the home to me because I had a...

Does anyone use the Herms coil in their HLT to cool their wort as well? I see the coil and I see a wort chiller, would it work if you filled the HLT with icewater and recirculated till the wort was down to temp? Just wondering because I have an immersion chiller i am getting ready to try and...
