Re: Basement Brewery Build

Re: Need a wort chiller recommendation

The size and length you need is dependent on quite a few factors. The size of the batches, How fast you want to chill, temperature of the water used to chill.

Re: Another homebrewer taking it to the next level

Yikes! Upon further review, I have learned of where this place will be located. The building is where bar owners locate to go out of business! I have lived in the same area all my life, this place is just bad luck for anything that has ever been in there. The location is out in nowhere. The Old Mill...

Re: Screw-up, or New Style?

I have never cleaned or changed my lines. I also would not even see if the beer back flowed into my gas lines because the lines are red. Hmmmm....... :unsure:
