Thirteen - never mind, I just found it. Thanks!

Thirteen - thanks. This site seems to just have the pumps. When I go to the parts page I see nothing for March pump parts (just other manufacturer parts). Where are you seeing this?

thanks! I did not know I could order it directly from March. That would take the guesswork out of it.

thanks. i wish it were, but it does not look the same as mine. i think this is for the more common 809 March. mine is the MDX MT3 - both the inlet and exit are oriented in the same direction. also, mine appears to have a different screw pattern than what the Midwest picture shows. seems as tho i...

After many years of use, i finally dropped my March MDX MT3 pump tonight and broke the plastic inlet. I had retired it for a time in favor of another pump. But, I have found good uses for dual pumps and have been utilizing it quite a bit lately - cleaning, transferring, etc., in areas where its...

Thought I'd try something different today. Tried the Constant Recirculation Direct Fired Mash ("CRDFM") method because I have a 2 pot system (all grain) and I liked the idea, at least on paper, of this method. The link describing it is here...

yea, the towels scene in my garage can get outta hand at times, but i am not complaining. i must say the BBQ towel is one of my favorites to smell, lol. anyway, glad to hear you found a solution that worked for you - it definitely sounds like a winner.

I am not sure what you percieve the risk to be. I have done this for years with zero problems. It is a very well known and time tested technique in BBQ circles. The whole point of putting it in the cooler is that it will easily hold the internal temperature of the meat with very little loss of...

The solution to your problem is simple (especially this time of year when it is real warm in the deep south). Smoke the meat night before as you propose, getting the largest cuts of meat to the internal temperature of your liking (for me it's 180 degrees). Get a cooler large enuf to hold all...

If he was there in the 2000 time frame, then I probably know him. I started patronizing that place back in 1990 when I first started making beer (it was off of Central Expressway then in a tiny little store). It was owned by another guy at the time. I think he sold it off apparently to become a...

Yea, that's it! The exact same place. From the looks of the store pics on the website, nothing much has changed. Thanks!!

We are relocating back to the DFW area next month (to Allen in Collin County specifically). Gonna want to get to work immediately on re-establishing a pipeline of homebrews. Where are the better homebrew shops located these days (been 10 years since I last shopped at a homebrew store in the DFW...

I think Jdecarol is prolly correct about the d-rest idea originating with lager yeasts. However, I have read a lot of posts on this forum from highly experienced homebrewers who do a temp rise of a few degrees after primary fermentation activity subsides and those guys seem to report having less...

I have used S-04 a number of times the past few months and have had no issues with off or twangy flavors. It does result in a fuller and sweeter tasting beer and I have consistently had final gravities in the .009 - .011 range. What I can see that might explain why I am not getting the esters or...

+1 to Vienna & Maris Otter combo. Also, note that there is a malt called "caravienna" or "caravienne". I made the mistake of using this other malt in a proven recipe I had that called for regular vienna malt and it came out way darker with a pronounced and somewhat unpleasant "twang" that is...

i sure do love me some simcoe. My last 4 batches have been simcoe only and I have been very pleased with the final product. The hop flavor is strong, but very clean. I think you will like it, very much.

In regards to rehydrating dry yeast, I have had this experience with Nottingham over the course of the past 5 months: 6 beers all pretty much the same basic receipe and the OG on all were similar and all pitched on a 65 degree wort. 4 I rehydrated and 2 I did not rehydrate (just sprinkled onto...

On mine, I uses "P" and "D" shaped door/window weatherstrip and then force compressed the doors using a couple of bolt latches, one on top and one on bottom, of each door. Works pretty well. Whichever route you take, you should do 2 things to make sure the seal is relatively air tight: (1) let...

I have re-pitched many times and have detected no unusual bitterness in the finished product. I do tend to be a bit heavy on the hops in all of my beers, so I have not had a situation where I have dumped a low bitterness wort (with the expectation of ending up with a malty flavored final beer)...
