    Heating element enclosures.

    Hello there! I've got some heating element enclosures for sale. All items are new, I bought different types for my rig, but had to use what was available here. 1) ADE or Moonshine Stils (USA). Kettle connection - tri-clamp 2". Heating element connection - 1" NPS. It closes with 2" clamp, it has...

    Stout God stole the body from my beers :\

    Grain bill is fine, however my recent research asks for MUCH more oat malt (6%>15-20%) and even more caramel malts. As for conditioning, it has been 10 days after I kegged it, with all fermenting periods longer than usual (had to abandon brewery for a week). 1) Unfortunately, I have no access...

    Stout God stole the body from my beers :\

    Hi there! I'm struggling a lot to brew full-bodied sweet stout. Maybe it's because I missed last Stout Day (and the one before) and didn't made a black liquid sacrifice :( Or maybe because I miss some very important concept, however I have already read and tried a lot. So, any help is welcome...

    Recirculation issues with same crush

    Is it? 0.45mm is 0.018", considering the grain to be 1-2 mm in length it will be ripped into a miliion pieces. I've never seen such small gap advised in any BIAB thread. And Cobrew baskets has a 0.4mm mesh on the bottom, so 0.45mm milled grain will most likely flow throught it. So, I highly...

    Auber PID (or no-PID) with solenoid valves for glycol

    I don't really like the looks of STC-1000 and I want both temperatures to be always visible, and I want to pay extra for it :ban: The question is, will it still work fine or it is technically unacceptable?

    Auber PID (or no-PID) with solenoid valves for glycol

    Hi everyone! We are building a bar-based brewery, and I really could use some advice, because I do this solely and for the first-time and my head is literally exploding with information :fro: I need to design a controller for glycol-based chiller system for my FV and brewing heat...

    Leftovers\Mis-buys from an all tri-clamp build

    Hi, fellow homebrewers! We are from cold mother Russia, and we ordered one extra 5x-kit for our heating element enclosures by mistake ~_~ Here they are, along with some leftovers from our build: (all images are "click-to-expand") All stuff is brand new (never used). 3x of...

    40gal e-BIAB 99% sealed tri-clamp madness!

    Today we tried to assemble everything we've got, to find out where exactly the fittings in the pot must be. As it was assembled, it looked exactly like... fluggaenkdechioebolsen, if you know what I mean :p Anyway, all the chinese fittings fitted just the same as the american ones did. They look...

    From homebrewing to a Nanobrewery

    My system will be so limited in size because I have the total rent-free place with all neccesary documents, but it only can provide 25-30kW peak, and making it a 30-40kW (it also will be used for cooling fermenters, cooling finished beer etc) will cost me quite a lot - ~200$ per 1kW. I decided...

    40gal e-BIAB 99% sealed tri-clamp madness!

    I hope so, becase the tinkershop is legally authorized to construct breweries here, but they do it on a much larger scale (10bbl is minimum). We will try to make it all look like made by them. :fro:

    From homebrewing to a Nanobrewery

    As for what I'm going to use, I'm building one myself based on this design. I'm writing about it here, at least I'm gonna to when more parts arrive ;) Currently it cost me €4.5k and will cost 500-600€ more to put all together (this includes all the supporting stuff - Thermapen...

    From homebrewing to a Nanobrewery

    Sorry, I mistyped, it will be 110l batches with blowoff, so dont really need that extra space. I decided at start that no local grain will be used, due to poor quality and stability. So, I'm all in Castle Malting (Belgium) and Weyermann (Germany). Weyermann's Pale costs 1,085€ per kg...

    From homebrewing to a Nanobrewery

    I'm from Russia, and I'm currently facing just the same situation here - 50l kettle, homebrewing a lot and with some success, big plans and some deeds to make next step to brew ~3000l a month. And I happen to look into the exact equipment company (Letina, here in Russia they have an official...

    40gal e-BIAB 99% sealed tri-clamp madness!

    Oh! First of all, thanks for you answers, guys. I couldn't reply for some time, because I was under some pressure these days ~_~ My current homebrewery, located in our office on the basement, was drowned in boiling water from our neighbours right on the NY holidays. 400 pounds of grain in...

    40gal e-BIAB 99% sealed tri-clamp madness!

    Quality is what bothers me. I've looked for clamps on Aliexpress and found 4 sellers that look quite adequate to me. 1 have insane shipping costs, so there are 3 left (one, two, three). Do you know something that may help me choose the better one? I'm worried that I might get low quality clamps...

    40gal e-BIAB 99% sealed tri-clamp madness!

    Hello everyone! I brewed my first ever batch in a 5gal BIAB on induction stove this september, and today I just finished my 20th. I rushed into all-grain so hard, because I'm an alcoholic and drink that much. (you definately should invent the [s] tag here!) Oh, and also because I had in mind...

    Nervous BIAB newbie

    When I make smth more than 1.05 OG, my 5 gal BIAB batches fit very tight in my 9.5gal (36l) kettle with the amounts provided by beersmith. When I make 1.07+, I have to lift 1-2l from the kettle and pour it back later. Though I have a high (0.5 to 1 gal) trub loss due to poorly placed valve, I...
