This is my favorite pointless arguement in the electric brewing world. It was considered 100% safe for years, the code changed and now its considered unsafe. I can see both sides, I feel educated in the matter now and as a grown man will make my own decision. Proving you're right on the...

Thanks for the detailed info aj. Im currently getting used to the spreadsheet and ranges and whatnot but its always nice to know how the numbers are coming about. So it would seem that my amount of lactic was about right on the money then considering I do have a small amount of roasted grain...

So I'm about to send off my ward labs sample to get a definitive answer on my exact water profile but in the meantime I'm brewing a black IPA and want to adjust my mash ph and tweak my chloride/sulfate ratio. The water here is pretty good from what I'm seeing except it's high in...

Oh man this is great! Thanks PJ!

So wait a minute...am I reading this correctly. I could take my spare 30amp dry outlet that's hot, hot, unshielded neutral, and put a 50 amp spa panel in and wire it as illustrated in the photo and I'd have a safe gfci protected outlet now? This would save me a tremendous amount of time, money...

For the people that have brewed this several times with no subs I'm wondering what did you use for the "dark candi sugar"? Are you using a dark candi syrup like D2 or is it in fact dark candi sugar which is essentially from my understanding just rock sugar with some molasses? The taste would...

Thank you sir. Its always good to have help from someone who knows the code and has done this a time or two ;). I'd love ya to look over the current plan and make sure I'd be doing this right. I have pictures of my main panel as well as the sub panels in the house. Also if this plan sounds...

Hey thanks PJ, that's good to know.

Anyone?

They are already releasing this years harvest in leaf form. Pellets are usually around Novemberish it seems like...so a month or two after they start releasing leaf hops. If you have beers you're waiting to brew I say get in on some of the great clearance deals and brew on sir. Just don't...

Id be willing to bet its your water. That kind of thing is exactly where dialing in your water profile to the style you're brewing is important. Sounds like you're making a fantastic beer you're just wanting to take it from a 38-40 to a 45. John Palmer describes this exact thing in a water...

Alright things got a little crazy with work and what not so I haven't even had a chance to think about this project until now. I greatly appreciate all the help you guys have been so far. I have a few more questions if you wouldn't mind. I had assumed that the line for the AC was run in some...

I'm also higher elevation and it greatly effected it. Id be interested to hear how to account for that.

Jai alai ipa from cigar city! If you can get your hands on their white oak or spanish cedar version you will be even happier. I enjoy some of Tampa bay breweries beers too like old elephant foot I think is the name. Another nice ipa.

Haven't had a chance to work on it. Got super busy at work and other life things. Hopefully soon though.

I love my chuggerpumps and their customer service is outstanding!

This is the impossible question but right now off the top of my head. Cigar city - jai alai (any version) Epic - big bad baptist stout Redrock - secale Firestone - union jack Deschutes - black butte xx (any of the versions really)

Awesome, thanks. Ill probably do that here soon

Sorry if this has already been asked jaybird but I was wondering, have you done any of these for the 80qt concord pots? If so do you have an estimate of how much that would run? I'm going to be being buying some soon and have been trying to figure out what false bottom I want to go with. Thanks

Thanks guys. Yes I'm basically building kals control panel so its definitely 30amps. And yes id be using 240 volt.
