Pump for cooling water

Hey guys, so I am getting the itch to brew again, but I swore I won't do another one without having a pump to run my immersion chiller. I was hoping to find one that was submersible, but that does not look feasible, so I am rethinking my application. Anyway, I don't need anything fancy as I'm just p...

Re: Moving to OC

Mike, I have no fermantation control, so I brew a lot in the winter. When you first get out here, we can meet up on one of my brew days, and I'll show you how I maximize my space :mrgreen:

Re: Moving to OC

Hey man, welcome to the OC. My best advice is fair warning will let you get away with murder lol. I live and brew all grain in pretty much a 900sqft 2 bedroom apartment. And I'm on the second floor... So when I want to brew, I go downstairs and let my neighbors know that I am brewing, this keeps the...

Re: SimBus Collaboration IPA

My name is 3rdto1st and I wish I could approve this brew. :( Unfortunately things have come to a head with my grandfather going to the hospital this weekend, and my gfs grandmother taking a bad turn over the weekend. That along with a few other family problems means I will not be able to make this b...

Re: Meet Kate the Great

I'm not sure how I feel about how this brew turned out, and I would appreciate some advice. When I brewed, I forgot that I wouldnt have LME to help give me more volume, so I collected too little from my mash. This made my post boil even smaller (4.5gal?), and forgetting to use a hop bag or the false...

Re: Old Wort

You have plenty of time to make a new starter, and with about 2mo on the old one, I would say make a fresh one. Any bacteria in that wort would have grown slowly, yes, but it still would have grown. Be safe and do a new one.

CO2 fill

Anybody have a reccommendation for where to get CO2 tanks filled? Not particularly fond of the idea of driving down to O'Sheas, but I don't know anywhere else. AirGas says I have to get in before 2 which will not happen, and they want me to exchange, not a deal breaker, but with my tank only 5mo old...

I am Insane

Just putting that out there. Today I did my first AG batch... and my second.... and my third. Yes, you read that right, through massive amounts multitasking, I did 3 all grains in 11 hours. :shock: Started off my day with the Kate the Great that I posted in the recipe section. Had to use 2lb DME and...
