HI Has anyone ever done a cast ale? I understand the idea to be that the final fermantation is without an airlock so the pressure is retained and it carbonates the beer. It is a similar concept to the carbonation produced in bottle conditioning. I use a corny keg, add some priming...

Has anyone tried using a 120v under sink water heater to maintain the temp of a mash? I think i will try to run the output of my mash tun thru a pump and into the input of the on demand water heater. I am not sure what the max output temp of the heater is though.

Has anyone used this to regulate mash temp on a HERMS setup? Basically I want to use a March pump to circulate my mash liquid through a coil in my HLT. I want to automate the circlulation by plugging into this controller and putting the prob in a trermowell in the mash.

Great Thanks

Its been stopped for a week. No bubbling and no change in gravity. Should I re-aerate?

HI I have a temp drop and it seems to have stopped my fermentation short. OG 1.067 FG 1.041 Any ideas to ferment the remaining sugar? thanks

I have checked several times. I even tried to hook up only the power and nothing. I think I fried it. Can it cause problems if the wire is overheated? i.e. solder iron was applied to long

I followed this wiring and everything was operating correctly. Then I decided to solder the wire splices and now nothing works. It doesn't even power up at all. Is this because I left the leads wired in to the controller?

Well put "electrons" I am going to mount the controller into the side of the ferm chamber and use a junction box on the inside for the cords. Everyone tends to over complicate things on here, lights, receptacles , bells and whistles. Give me function K.I.S.S.

I would like to use this controller with out wiring in the outlet. I will be using a small heater and a fan on the cool side. I want to cut the plug off of the heater and hard wire it directly into the controller. Will this cause issues?

Can this be wired directly to the controller with no plug involved?

Could this temp controller be used for mash temp regulation?

Hi all I have some crazy number to report from this Duval Clone recipe on page 78 of the BYO 250 Best Recipes edition. Pre boil wort Gravity 1.070 Post boil 1.090 After primary 1.027 (Beer Smith estimates 8.26% ABV) dosage sugar add to secondary 1.035 I added 1lb of dosage sugar to the...

I haven't yet, but will be brewing this weekend and plan to try it out after.

What you have is Low-Density-Poly-Ethylene (LDPE). The brew buckets are made of High-Density-Poly-Ethylene (HDEP) Anything that is LDPE will leach BPA and phallates when used with any sort of heat. In short this is not a good option to use.

I live in a fairly new house (2007) and all the plumbing is done with PEX, except for the first 18 inches out of the hot water heater because of building code. So that if the hot water heater malfunctions it wont melt off the pex. I use PEX for my sparge arm and it is wonderful. You can use...

Hi, I have my trellis and supports built and am ready to plant my rhizomes. Does anyone know the depth and orientation to plant the rhizomes? Should the rhizome be parallel or perpendicular to the ground surface? Thanks

So, I went out of town for two days and it happened to get near 80 degrees. As did my carboy of wheat beer that will be two weeks tomorrow. I moved the carboy to the basement and it is sitting at 64. 1. Do you think i ruined the batch? 2. If not how long will it need to sit before...

I have had two of the Rogue Hazelnut brown nectars in the last few weeks. The first was my first time ever. Great beer!! One of the top browns out there. The second last night was so good that I am looking for a recipe right now.
