So overall I’m kinda a novice home brewer... anyways here’s a question about pressurized fermentation and Wyeast 2633. I wanted to brew a quick-ish Oktoberfest and did some research that suggested pressure fermentation could get me there. I looked up a recipe that sounded good and didn’t think...

I’ve got an InkBird instant read thermometer and it’s friggin awesome! A Bluetooth one would be awesome for my smoker!!

DEFINITELY NOT!!! Haha - I have a 'whole house' exhaust fan that's located in the utility room. It's for ventilating moisture specifically - not sure where you live but up here around Calgary/the rest Canada it's quite common. They work well in the winter for keeping the humidity from condensing...

At some point I'm going to tap into my whole house exhaust piping - people usually only ventilate due to smells though, right?

Hey Guys, Just thought I would post some pics of my Herms system. I just finished running all the tubing this evening. I built the electrical panel and everything is wired up and seams to be functioning properly. I have a few more things to tackle before I take her for a spin. I'm thinking of...

For sure I agree with keeping it covered. I did have it covered, just took it off to take a temp reading and the quick picture. I was a little paranoid that a few of the neighbourhood cats could be potential 'off items' as you said haha.

So I was making this beer tonight and ran out of ice (I really need an actual wort chiller), but anyways I just tossed it in a snow bank on my deck - kinda thought I might be funny for some who have never seen snow!

Hey guys I'm Kevin from Calgary, Ab. New here to the forum and fairly new to home brewing. I've only made a two batches so far - one of if which isn't quite ready, it's quietly bottle conditioning in my basement (Can't wait!). My wife thinks I've taken a shine to this new hobby a little hastily...

Just an update on the progress I've made. I have all the tops cut open (stainless is a Biatch to cut with a grinder - it took about 30 - 45 mins per keg) and I polished them up all nice with a wire wheel. Might end up going over them with an orbital sander - for some reason it wouldn't take off...

Hey Guys - new here to the forum and pretty new to home brewing. My wife thinks I'm a little too over zealous/excited with my new hobby... might be true :). Anywho, I scored 3 kegs for pretty cheap and I want to turn them into a HERMS system somewhat like what the Black Heart Brewery guys have...
