Just had the same exact issue only two months in the life of my 8 kegs kegerator.
All the fittings and regulator became brittle and failed.
They were never soaked in Starsan, but were sprayed with it to leak test them.
I'll probably be switching to secondary regulators and barb fittings for...
I decided to stop the purging, open and wash them then hook them again. Didn’t want to jeopardize 10G for something quite effortless in the end.
Thanks
Hi,
first time this happens so I'm looking for advice. I have a 10G batch of blonde ale fermenting with WLP 001 and it's going like crazy even if I kept my temp to 64f. So much so that for the first time, the krausen reached the gas post on the spunding valve of my Spike CF15.
As I'm...
That pump is a beast! I have it ( standard size, not the XL) running glycol through my beer tower on a 50′ loop with an 8-9′ height increase on an 1/2″ line and it does the job remarkably. I had my doubts when I got the package. The thing is so small, there was no way its could manage that task...
Thanks. It had plenty of insulation, I just took it out to dissemble it.
Putting it back together will be a pain. The beer line is stainless steel that connects to the shank via a compression fitting with a grommet that screws into the shank itself as it screws into the lock nut. All that time...
That's exactly how it worked. Used a faucet as a wrench and the shank unscrewed itself. Thanks.
Now it cleaning, restoring and putting it back together time.
Hi,
I got lucky and got my hand on a used 5 taps glycol chilled professional beer tower for next to nothing. The cooper needs restoring and I would like to take it all apart and restore it to its former glory.
I was wondering if anyone knew of an online resource that could help me on taking it...
I've been home brewing for about 3 years now and the generosity of the brewers community is probably what kept me going. The incredible online ressources and the generosity of people that take the time to answer questions that have been asked countless times makes it possible for people with no...
Not that it's going to help your situation, but it might make you feel less lonely.
I did the same probe mishandling a few weeks ago, but at the very beginning of fermentation. Set the fermenter in the chest freezer at 3pm and went to check on it the morning after. Probably my first brew where...
Hi @RonBurgundy10 I’m curious at the temp probe you used.
I’m looking for one to put on a 1/2 npt pipe juste where the wort come in the MT.
To hook up to the Uniflex that I’ll be receiving in a short while.
Thanks
I’m in the process of building a eHerms that’s going to be on a rolling kart so I can brew near the kitchen and store it under the staircase. Going back and forth between a diy hood vent that would connect to my range hood exhaust duct and allow me to assemble and deassemble it between brews or...
I was planning on 2 BrewCommander for possible double brew day.
But I’m weighing the cost vs the number of times I’m actually going to do 2 batches a day.
I’ve done it a few times on the Brewzilla 120v. It takes forever.
Hi,
I'm in my HERMS conception and I'm still torn between using 2 BrewCommander 240v or BruControl's Uniflex with two vessels output.
One of the advantages of going with 2 BrewCommander is the possibility to have both the HLT and BK fire at the same time.
My question is about the electrical...
