Dusting off my rig after a couple year hiatus. Chest freezer kicked the bucket in the interim. Still have my Johnson temperature controller but I'm set on upgrading to a brewpi spark 3 in an upright fermentation chamber. Found an upright freezerless refrigerator on Home Depot's website. 11 cu...

I got a kick out of this shirt on Amazon and had to share...check it out. Almost definitely would go over the heads of non-homebrewers, but funny especially for those who just love to brew IPA's (guilty). A couple others as well: "Beer Makes Me Hoppy" ShirtFunny IPA Shirt :mug:

Decided to finally get a brew pump and went with the new ss chugger. I think I understand the method for say, pumping H2O from HLT to MT...but I'd also like pump from my MT to BK (I batch sparge). My question is, how does one go about performing this transfer? I know you don't want to run...

Found an angle iron aquarium stand that measures 58" x 20" x 36" ...wondering if these dimensions would work out as a base frame for a single tier design compared to what others have fabricated. I'm thinking I'll drop the height down a bit but I think its going to work out nicely...

Stumbled upon this auction, a Friday's Restaurant going out of business, and thought I would give a heads up to anyone in Kansas (or anywhere, I think they ship) interested. Current bids are only a couple bucks on each. http://www.fasttrackauction.net/cgi-bin/mnlist.cgi?fasttrack1846/60...

I have an extra keggle (no fittings) laying around that I'd be willing to part with. Good condition, Anheuser Busch, no dents. Local pick-up preferred in Cincinnati. Make an offer.

...and I was a bit disappointed. The smell/aroma is phenomenal but I'm wondering where I missed on this one. At first my thoughts were that it was overly bitter, but then I realized that there are some super bitter IPAs out there (Ruination for example) that I love, so I think a better...

My Pliny clone has been dry hopped to the max and is smelling great and its time to keg it up...but I'd like to bottle a few flip-tops to share with friends. What do you think is the best way to go about this? Here's what I was thinking... -Covering both the end of my auto-siphon and the...

Looking for a barley crusher used. Upgrade to a 15lb and sell me your 7lb! (I'm in the Cincinnati area)

Can someone help me with this...Im looking to brew a 5 gallon batch of this Kate the Great clone but only have the percent composition of each grain in the total grist. How do you go about calculating how many pounds of each grain are needed for this sized batch? When we brew a batch of Kate...

My first go with my DIY immersion chiller went great, but got stuck around the 80 degree mark. Is using a prechiller worth the extra 30-40 bucks or are there better methods of getting down to 60 or 70 degrees. I'm afraid a standard 15ft pre-chiller isn't going to sufficiently cool down the...

I just made my first mash tun from a Coleman Xtreme 52qt and was wondering how long I can expect to get use out of it. I know these coolers are meant to hold cold, not hot and I have heard that a bit of warping can occur. Does the warping ever become a physical barrier to the functionality of...

Can you use a wort wizard with an immersion chiller or does it require a CFC?

Looking for help for a logo idea, heres the inspiration... If any of you are into the jam band music festival scene (bonnaroo, rothbury, etc.) you're probably aware of the term "wookiefoot." If you don't know, it essentially just refers to your feet being extremely dark with dirt, grime, and...

Just curious about the age demographic of HBT members. Also share how long you've been brewing!
