I need to do this for my hop addition cups. More than once I've had them lined up on the table and bumped it, knocking them over, or mixing up the order. I could line them up like a beer flight and add a spot to label the timing.
Don't go by the initial shipping estimate. IIRC you can't get to the shipping options until you enter payment info, but in all my past orders, I've been presented with significantly cheaper options than what was originally suggested, and for me in CT, a final total competitive with the "big...
I finished my new magnetic stir plate this morning. My old one was kind of janky and the speed control went from zero to "throw the stir bar" with the slightest touch. For the new one I purchased an inexpensive low-voltage speed control (~$5 on Amazon) and used a 4.6v 3v wall wort from my stash...

I've said it in other threads. I love my 240v electric 3V system. I can pretend I'm running a tiny professional brewery. But if I were starting over, I'd take a long, hard look at an AIO system.

We are looking to make some fundamental changes to re-open in the near future.
Wishful thinking? I had not had a chance to get there to check them out. Frankly, it's too far for me to even call them my local homebrew store.
I've had my pump connected between my kettle on the table and plate chiller on the ground and I didn't need to turn it on as gravity was getting the job done.
