I have two of the 2-md-sc and they have worked great so far. They prime right away and have had no problem recirculating the boiling wort. I think I picked mine up on ebay for 45 and 55 each.

Thundercatfowl, You rock man. Keep up the hard work and the things you learn from this will serve you well. I've built plenty of things on the back deck of a small apartment and screwed up many more. Now I have a basement, less time, more knowlege, and tools I really appreciate. Somehow I...

They will work great. Thanks again.

I'm headed to Norfolk this weekend and wanted to pick up some good shrimp for a low country boil I'm hosting next weekend. I live a little inland now and don't have great access to the fresh stuff on the coast anymore. Anybody know of a great little shop around some docks or something? I know...

I brewed that a couple summers ago, and everyone loved it. Great beer. When I opened the box I called NB and told them they forgot my grains in the order. They politely educated me on the recipe and assured me it was good to go. They were right, it was good to go, then gone in a hurry.

Here you go boss. It's an American Beverage Equipment Co

PM Sent, I'm game.

I use a 90* street at the end of the hoses that need it. I didn't bother grinding it down and slapped a hose clamp on it, works fine so far, only time will tell I guess.

I have used mine for only two brews so far. I cleaned with a light PBW solution through all the lines and fittings and everything seems to be holding up so far. I haven't found anything unnerving about them yet. I also replaced all the orings with the high temp silicone. All the male pieces are...

I use a rubber coated keg for my MT and BK, Electric Brutus 20. I think it's great and adds a little insulation to the mash, but not much. I use a HERMS to maintain temps. The BK gets a little warm to the touch during a boil but not bad, less than a fresh cup of coffee. If you haven't cut...

I have a two vessel system and both the MT and BK are bottom drain. I've only brewed on it once but it was awesome. I cut holes in a table, attached the triclamps and 90* elbows with SS extensions that come out of the skirt on the table. I love mine so far.

I don't really have an answer. My buddy who started working the recipe up said do it that way when I was brand new to brewing a couple years back and I never bothered to change it or figure out why it was there. Now that I'm doing AG I'm starting to learn some of those items and will be workign...

OK, I found Brewtarget to try and record my stuff and figure out what I'm doing. It says the recipe with the grain additions suggested above instead of the extract will be slightly malty, which doesn't bother me at all. However, I would typically steep the grains in the original recipe for...

I have used different extracts when doing this recipe in the past and am finally trying to dial in some constants. I had read that LME is made up of different malts but thought the Amber malt would fit the bill. Thanks for the information. I'll substitute with the grain you recommend, which is...

I just switched to AG and am trying to convert the following extract recipe. I don't have a software program right now and did some research on methods and equations. Here is what I'm thinking: Original Extract Recipe: 6lbs Amber LME 1 lb 2row 3/4 lb Brown 1 lb Special B 1/4 lb Chocolate...

This is the first software I am using, looks great. Does it convert extract recipe to all grain? I have one I would like to switch over. Thanks for making this available.

I just cut it open like normal with an angle grinder, mask, eyes and ear protections and gloves, went like butter. I cut the bottom out and use both of mine as bottom drain vessles. I went all electric as well. Everything else is still coated in rubber and seems to work great, the maiden voyage...

Thanks. I have some DME but will pick up some more today after I find an online calculator to tell me how much I'll need. Thanks agian.

So last night was the first AG and first brew on the new rig. A few tweaks need to be made but all in all it was great. I did a 10gal batch of EdWorts Haus Pale Ale. The problem: I was so concentrated on all the workings that I added hops for a 5gal batch vice a 10gal batch. I completely...

On a couple of my hoses I didn't need to use the 90 and threaded it straight onto the camlock and those were leaking. It is a really tight fit, I wonder if it's just working its way up the threads and coming out the top like a fitting without teflon tape?
