I could see why a person would want to hump a keezer...

Star-San kills ants and other insects? I'm spraying my whole joint down with the stuff tomorrow! Another fun distraction on Brew Day! Maybe I'll fill up a "Super Soaker" just for blasting at bugs? The foam "Sculptures" are fun also! JJ

You can build a perfect CFC for $50. 10gallons of 212* wort chilled to 68* in less than 10 min..Thats as fast as my pump will move it!. JJ

I don't know whats been going on at my local Costco lately.. A couple weeks ago they had cases of Deschuetes Brewing Red Chair NWPA, Now they have Bridgeport Hopp Czarr and I picked up a tall bottle of Duvel! Pretty good stuff to find in the beer aisle. Im glad they don't sell guns and ammo...

I just made a Black IPA on friday and had the same OG.. Sprinkled S-05 in a nice even layer on top of the chilled (68*) wort in the bucket.. waited 30 min then stirred in. 14 hours later and she was cookin! still bubbling about 1 bubble every 5 seconds this AM. JJ

Im sure you guys already checked this but... Is your diptube "swagelock" fitting tight and leak free? If your pump begins cavitating after the wort hits the bulkhead / top of your diptube then you are likely drawing air into the intake and losing prime... Boiling liquid does not create bubbles...

Went Perfect! hit all our gravity readings on the money and 73% effeciency with a 23 pound grain bill! The machine is rollin now! 10 gallons on gas in the keezer, 10 gallons fermenting in the closet. 3 weeks from now we will be brewing the next batch and enjoying our own brew at the same...

If you plan on direct firing your Mash Tun then you will need a full 15 inch false bottom...otherwise a smaller one will work. No pump means you will need a 3 tier gravity system...Pumps are not that expensive in the grand scheme of things, IMO..JJ

Ranger is good...Ninkasi "Total Domination" is a fav of mine...

I'm a FireFighter in the same town I grew up in..( over 25 years) I wear a uniform at work...like all firemen and cops... its amazing when we roll into the grocery store with 3 dudes, in uniforms, Just like we did 3 days ago, and yes we were driving the BRT (big red truck) here comes the...

Thanks Everybody!,, The stand will be painted or powdercoated soon..Wanted to run a couple batched and make sure no changers were needed. Maybe I'll use the ATVs' and drag the rig up in the woods for a batch! hahaha I'm fermenting in buckets currently.. Thanks JJ

This made the difference in my rig!!! HUGE! I was getting pretty frustrated with my BG-14's. Now all is well! JJ

Oh Yeah,, Forgot to mention the 78% efficiency we pulled out. First AG batch with a 22lb grain bill.. I blew the first vorlouf by opening the valve the wrong way, Pumped back to the MT, Reset the grain bed , Re-Vorlouf and that FB did its job perfectly! cleared up in 2 quarts and ran clear for...

I Just got one of Jaybirds 15" FB with the weldless kit and can say its perfect! Shipped ultra fast! and the man is a pleasure to deal with on the phone. I have no experience with the others, Mainly because his seem to have a reputation for being the best.. Also, This was not the piece of my...

+2 on the ProFlowDynamics! Full bore flow..no restriction and the $ is right.. I followed Bobbys video to a tee and all is well! No ugly hoseclamps needed. I was $100 in for camlocks, silicone tubing, 4 SS street 90's and a package of #210 O rings. JJ

This was in the middle of a minor vorlouf incident.. to fast and bored a hole in the grain bed.. Fixed by draining the BK and recirc'd in the MT a little more gently.. The Mash tun held its temp for the full 60 min at a 43 degree air temp without firing once! Wort cleared off very nice...
