All Grain Brewing / Jumping back into the game

« on: October 10, 2012, 07:00:16 PM »

So I was looking at sources on the net and I came across a post that said a bayou classic sq14 would be good for a burner for a direct fire mash tun. Any thoughts? It says it has 55,000 btu output. I also found one at menards that is 45,000 btu but it's a brand I have never heard of.

Where can you buy bayou classic. I dont really don't want to buy off of amazon again

Oh and I know that's the max output but even on low is it too high?

Would you think that a bayou classic sp10 be too much for a mash tun burner bc it does put out about 185,000 btu?

Would I be alright using silicon tubing(high heat tolerance) for the piping or should I hard pipe from and to the pump?

The failures weren't the point they were failures bc of things after the brew day. Like a fridge going out, using bad yeast, carboy braking. I normally hit my mark for gravity and such. I only missed once bc I forget to refresh a recipe in the program and it through off my water calcs. I got the boiler maker for ease of cleaning and the pump so I do to lift things constantly.

I was more wondering about how should I arrange everything and such.

So I haven't brewed since last thanks giving and it was the second allgrain that turned out for me and the other ones were failures.

So I want repeatability(if that's a word) so I bought a march pump and a blichmann boilermaker with false bottom. I think my plan so far is to direct fire the boilermaker as the mash tun bc I have been using a extreme cooler and missing my temps. I also want to make a stand one level.

So my question is does anyone have guidance for me on my endeavor? I am not a very imaginative person so it's hard to picture a finished product.

Ingredients / Maple Syrup-When Add To Get Maple Taste

« on: September 23, 2012, 12:30:32 PM »

Wouldn't the maple syrup just make it drier? Does it add much flavor at all?

Equipment and Software / 201 or 304 Stainless Steel

« on: September 21, 2012, 11:08:57 PM »

You can weld stainless with regular mild steel wire or filler rod it will just rust at the weld. You can mix different alloys but it'll make interesting looking welds. I would say go for it and if it doesn't work get a different pot.

General Homebrew Discussion / Looking for a Cerveza Bohemia Clone Recipe

« on: September 21, 2012, 11:04:14 PM »

I would go with the standard Czech pils recipe bc the beer style that your talking about is the same as any other pils it just happens to be brewed in Mexico.

So I think something has been nibbling on my plants. What would eat them? Every time a good leaf pops up it goes missing. How can you protect them?

Yeast and Fermentation / Waiting to use yeast

So I am going to brew tomorrow and the starter has been sitting in the fridge for little over a week. What should I do to get I ready? Could I just let it warm up and dump her in?
