My fiancé’s father is building us one of the coolest wedding bars I’ve ever seen! If you’re in the PNW check him out on Facebook at Woodworx he does awesome work. He’s just got some trim and staining left and then the rest is up to me. I’m planning on each wine barrel having a draught faucet and...

I’m currently fermenting in glass carboys and really need to upgrade to a larger fermenter. Splitting up 10+ gallon batches into multiple fermenters just isn’t working. I came across this picture of a glass carboy converted into a conical fermenter, and I don’t see why it couldn’t be done with a...

Does anybody have experience with this “Corny Killer” 5 gallon keg with a 4” tri clamp removable spear? https://www.kegoutlet.com/16bbl-5-gallon-sanke-keg-with-tri-clamp-removable-spear.html Would solve the problem of myself, my dad, my father in-law, and my friends needing to swap liquid and...

I have brewed 6 batches now on my 3-vessel electric herms rig and I am having a blast. 4 out of the 6 I have either hit my original gravity or gotten very close, but two of the batches came out much lower than what the recipe called for. The first was a whit that came out at 1.039 when it...

So I've never actually brewed beer before. I was planning on starting out slow, but I am at a point in my life where I had the time to do it so I pulled the trigger and built a 3 vessel eHERMS with 15 gallon pots. You can check it out in the DIY forums. Anyways I am just finishing up the...

Well I've been asking questions and kicking around ideas on here for a few months now and I finally started my build this afternoon!! I picked up enough 18 gauge SS for 3 15 gallon pots with lids, a false bottom for my mash tun, and a 10 gallon conical fermenter and got to cutting. This is as...

I'm in the middle of ordering parts for my 3-vessel eHERMS build. I've seen a lot of guys put Auber PT100s in-line before or after the ball valve on their pots. http://www.theelectricbrewery.com/temperature-probes Are people liking this style of RTD? I like the quick disconnect at the probe...

Been planning a 240v 30amp 3 vessel eHERMS for about a month now, but I need some input before I make any purchases. Some of my questions may seem stupid- I have no idea what I'm doing since I've never actually brewed beer before. Because of this I will gladly welcome any and all input! Well...
