llama, I'm off mayhill/380 in Denton. I have a single tier brutus ten. I can help you out on your build for sure. ideas etc.. I will be able to motivate you plus point you in the direction for supplies/ fittings, etc.. . I will be brewing soon for my summer supply. So far on tap I have an apricot wh...

ABV,
Try swirling your carboy or fermenter. Your fermenter may have gotten cold causing your yeast to drop out and settle to the bottom. If you shake it up and get it warmer your yeast should fire up again and finish out. Just and idea.

Bill,
Your right, full open on a pump during recirc will compact the mash and render it stuck. Rice hulls and a happy medium on the flow rate help. Flaked wheat without rice hulls will ruin your day. PITA for sure.

ABV, I live in Denton. Nobody lives near us up here. I just brewed an Imperial IPA yesterday. Its fermenting away as we speak. I second all the above suggestions. If you want to see a system/stuff. Drop me an email. bvaskew@mac.com I live in Lakeview Ranch east of town. Like someone suggested, try a...

Thanks Wayne

On second thought, winter is approaching quickly. The cold weather has me thinking a winter fermentation chamber. I have some reptile warming pads plus some controllers Im excited to try out this year. This spring may be the departure time for my dead keezer.

I checked it out, it is literally rocket science. My 15cu is out the door. Craigs here I come.

Wayne,
Thanks. After building a single tier, you would think charging a compressor would be cake. I'm gonna research this to see how easy it could be. Maybe some gauges, freon,etc . I'm on a mission now.

I second what Wayne said. I used a wort aerator device which caused the wort to shower down on the grainbed. It worked like a champ for 5 gallon batches but when I went to 10 gallon batches the grainbed was tooo tall and my showerhead was nearly out the roof of my keggle. I have changed to just a si...

The other day my converted chest freezer stopped cooling. The compressor hums but does not maintain temp. The system is a closed one, meaning there are no charging fittings just soldered ends. Anyone know of anyone that can charge it or if its even worth going that route? I'm close to just taking my...

Wayne,

Rob, They are simple banjo burners, 10.5 inches. I had seen Damons rig on the net and looked into it. Did some searching on the net. Did a price search and bought 3 for 40 bucks each. Seems that is the going rate or at least a place to start. bayou burner for propane is what your looking for. There ...

Powder coating is a problem if you don't know how heat works. I was interested if powder coating burnt or not, it burns. But I found a simple fix. You have to build an insert which slides into the burner opening. The pic I posted is prior to my building an insert. After the insert build my frame is ...
