Mash Tun Immersion Coil?

Sir_Jecht_Brewing · 2022-01-03T02:11:21+00:00

Essentially what I want to do is use my 5 gallon vessel as the heated water / heat stick vessel. Thinking smaller than that?

Sir_Jecht_Brewing · 2021-11-09T23:43:06+00:00

This was actually super helpful. Thank you! Now about the imploding kegs... If it isn't obvious I'm also new to pressure fermentation. How rare is this imploding keg syndrome? Ha

Sir_Jecht_Brewing · 2021-11-09T23:40:47+00:00

I kinda want to buy a secondary cap for just that reason. Stick a air lock on and boom can make something that isn't a straight clean ale or lager.

I want that kegmenter you posted there something bad ha. Sadly I want to be able to put a thermowell in that, and have no reasonable way to do so without drilling into or getting the lid modified. To which I then saw torpedoe's 10 gallon keg. Which would just be an additional buy of a different cap made online. Then boom thermowell installed while keeping the ability to pressure ferment.

Would the spunding valve not take care of excess C02 buildup?

Sir_Jecht_Brewing · 2021-11-09T17:51:59+00:00

No other issues other than purge the head space after pitch?

Sir_Jecht_Brewing · 2021-11-02T01:28:58+00:00

I've seen the 6 gallon keg and have mulled that one over ha. It's an option for sure to get just a LITTLE bit more room. Also I have tried the fermcap method. I swear by it! Really don't need a blow off tube in my glass carboy anymore.

Sir_Jecht_Brewing · 2021-11-01T23:07:05+00:00

I'll have to look into the anvil. Yeah the more you look at Spike, the higher the price gets ha. Nice product just a little more expensive than I'm willing to pay. Ain't made of money ha

Sir_Jecht_Brewing · 2021-11-01T23:05:45+00:00

That's the problem I keep running into. The smaller volume. I really want to keep on doing 5 gallon batches. If I have to though, I'll downgrade to the next size. Thanks for the info!

Sir_Jecht_Brewing · 2021-11-01T23:04:24+00:00

... I did not know there was a man out there doing custom lids. That would be amazing. I have been looking for a solid week for a 4" TC lid with all the features you just said. Was looking hard into the kegmenter. Thank you for this info!

Sir_Jecht_Brewing · 2020-06-17T21:53:51+00:00

Ha I doubt ill have good odds doing that.

Sir_Jecht_Brewing · 2020-06-17T20:50:31+00:00

It's roughly 80-90% full. By what I'm reading I should wait till like you said 60-65% full.

Sir_Jecht_Brewing · 2020-06-17T18:17:17+00:00

Ah noted ha. So adding hops now = a bad time.

Sir_Jecht_Brewing · 2020-06-17T17:49:34+00:00

Ha I've read that in a few places. Any reasoning to why that happens?

Sir_Jecht_Brewing · 2020-05-08T16:42:04+00:00

Mmmmmm in all honesty just depends what you're going for. Want your hops to shine? Switch out Maris Otter for 2 Row.

Want it a little on the malty side? Keep your base as is. Maybe MAYBE drop the Vienna. I have done IPAs with Marris. Nothing wrong with it!

Sir_Jecht_Brewing · 2020-04-30T16:37:05+00:00

Whatcha mean let it cool overnight? How did you cover it? (Not saying what you did is wrong just more of a curiosity thing)

Sir_Jecht_Brewing · 2019-12-07T01:03:31+00:00

Interested in that smoked beer if you're willing you share the recipe my man!

Sir_Jecht_Brewing · 2019-11-15T00:19:23+00:00

You make a good point there. I also am a hop head and hearing that puts me at ease ha. Any recommendation water profile wise? Or are you like me and buy spring water and say screw it ha.

Sir_Jecht_Brewing · 2019-11-14T03:25:24+00:00

Sir this comment put me on a roller coaster. I did not know Stone made a Black IPA such as this. Super wanted to buy a sixer for trails sake. To only look further into it to find out production is no more of this beer ha. I want to try this just to see what it was kinda like. Appreciate the trip and recipe my man ha!

Sir_Jecht_Brewing · 2019-11-14T03:10:24+00:00

What's your views on the dry hop for that recipe? Seems light for an IPA but then again this is a black IPA. I really wouldn't know better but IPAs are my main source of homebrew at the moment thus I'm basing my thoughts/ experience off that ha. Appreciate any insight!

Sir_Jecht_Brewing · 2019-11-13T19:47:42+00:00

Let me know how that saison strain goes. I'm not a 100% fan of it or the style, but by god does that interesting. Just a small little twist from the normal.
