    Cannular Pro vs Oktober SL1

    Hey Rob, I deliberated on this very decision for weeks. Finally went with the Cannular Pro mainly due to the ability to use 12, 16, and 32oz cans. I can even get the adapter for steel cans - coffee/ food, etc. As much as i loved Oktober as a company and the idea of supporting an American...

    Jockey Box — Build It or Buy It, and Where?

    Ditched my jockey boxes and went with Pancho’s keg cooler. Works great, but i got an email the other day saying he’s halting production due to material shortages. 😖 that said, i don’t see a way around the expense - buying will cost a little more than building so if you don’t want a project...

    When to brew a pumpkin ale

    oh BTW, IMO. a good amber ale at ~8% requires at least 6 weeks in the ferm. soooo start early september, mid sept at the latest, to enjoy finished product (hopefully a dead ringer for Pumking) per #4 above) in season.

    When to brew a pumpkin ale

    let me lay out the facts of this thread: pumpkin beer IS delicious. those of us that like it appreciate it more for the characteristics of the season in which it’s enjoyed, vs the actual execution of pumpkin in beer. you don’t need actual pumpkin in the beer. just the idea, or illusion, of...

    New Jersey Southern NJ - 2-tap Coleman Xtreme Jockey Box

    Up for sale is my home made jockey box. I built this in 2018 using a brand new Coleman Xtreme 70-quart cooler (spec'ed to keep ice for 5 days per the manufacturer). It's got two 3/8" x 50-foot stainless coils and two tap handles on the front. I used this ONCE and it worked flawlessly with no...

    New Jersey Southern NJ - SS Brewtech Unitank 1/2 BBL w/ FTSS Heating & Cooling

    For sale is my 1/2 BBL SS Brewtech Unitank conical fermenter with the FTSS heating and cooling packages. Will ferment under pressure – rated to 15psi. The entire setup was bought new and used about 6 times (by me) before I decided it was drawing my brewing focus too far into “equipment” and...

    Deciding between Kegco or monster 3 pro mill

    yep. when a malt bill calls for wheat i have to crush the barley then take the mm3 apart to tighten gap for the wheat. then back again for the next time. painful. requires a wrench and annoying finger bolts.

    Deciding between Kegco or monster 3 pro mill

    mm3 is no doubt a great well made mill. but you’d think for the $ they would have build in an easier way to adjust the gap other than taking the whole thing apart. 😖

    Specialty IPA: Rye IPA Denny Conn's Wry Smile Rye IPA

    I just brewed up my second batch of this today and felt like I was visiting an old friend. This is by far the pinnacle of my brewing career and the best recipe I have ever brewed. Granted I’ve made a bunch of mistakes on other really good recipes, but this one even at 80% correct is just an...

    forgot to mention - anybody have a good solution for crushing >5lb of wheat without having to adjust your super-annoying-to-adjust monster MM3?

    Brew day today... dub batch.

    Brew day today. Double batch on the Anvil Foundry 10.5g. Frickin love that system by the way. First up was an English Mild recipe from Brew Guru/ AHA. At 3.5% it’ll be an easy drinker. Hit all my numbers perfect and the wort tasted freakin amazing. Brown malt, pale chocolate. YES! Second batch...

    Indoor venting

    I had to upgrade to a 6” duct fan from a 4”. the 4” just couldn’t pull the steam effectively and at least half escaped. dehumidifier worked well but took time. the 6” duct fan takes care of my boil off rate of 1gal/ hour. pushing outside through about 6 feet of flexible duct. condensate gets...
