Well first the good news, it looks like everyone that registered for the conference will get to attend. But then I read there is no pro night. This may have been discussed, but today was the first I heard of it. This was on the AHA's website: "New in 2014, conference attendees will enjoy a...

Well a while back I ordered a Tri Clover RIMS Tube fro Derrin at Brewer's Hardware. I contacted PJ, and he was kind enough to draw up a schematic for a simple controller to run my pump and RIMS Tube. I am finally getting around to starting the project. The schematic was for a 20 amp 120v RIMS...

Well once again thanks to the help and inspiration from people on this forum I built my own motorized mill. At the NHC this year I took advantage of the discount that monster mill offered and ordered their MM-3 mill with extended grain chute. I wanted to go with a direct drive motor. There...

I had kinda posted some of this in another thread, but don't want to hijack someones thread. I am soon to be getting my Brewstand from Marcus to put together a single tier propane system. I am looking into my options on temperature readings on the different keggles. Some have pointed out how...

Josh at BrewBrandCreative has finished my logo. :ban: I am very happy with how it turned out, and it was worth the wait. I can not say enough good things about how accommodating and helpful they were during the design process. I am hoping to get some pint glasses made from bargainmugs, though...

Sorry guys for yet another airlock question. As much as I have read I cant find an answer. My first batch of beer is an extract kit from Midwest supplies. Their Autumn Amber Ale. I had it one week in the primary. Unfortunately I did not get an OG reading. After 1 week I transferred it...

Well I have just gotten started in the homebrew hobby. In fact my first batch of beer is not even finished yet, it is an amber ale that is currently in the secondary. But I can tell you I already have the bug. When I first started reading the forums, I spent to days reading the "show us your...
