Jim's Beer Kit

Non return at the top and splitters in middle with 2 or 3 and isolation underneath. If you were uber careful you wouldn’t need the non return, I’m not🤷🏻‍♂️ https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180831/b80cdefe87e72add35ab0313758faaa8.jpg I got them off eBay sellers some may have been linked from here, ...

Give it a go and see how you get on.
I just use a John Guest splitter where I need two feeds with isolation valves. I also have one way valve (expensive for what they are) before the reg just in case liquid goes up the airline.

DH’ed ?

Something’s are worth messing about with to save a few bob in homebrewing, not sure messing about with control of highly compressed gas falls into that cat tbh, but that’s just my opinion.

And Sat lottery numbers [emoji12].
Didn’t keg kingdom have a few at one stage?
Just checked, holy crap £76 for a new one, I do recollect a discussion where it basically the same hardware as full size used hence why not half the cost[emoji853]

My main kit is a 60 60 80 boiler herms with throttled chugger but I also bought a Grainfather. To compare the two Upsides Footprint Ease of use Control with GF connect Robust, over 30 boils now Downsides I miss hands on[emoji23] I don’t like grain husk/germ in wort see below Fiddly with return arm a...

Only areas I see no chill as a having issues are end clarity and other airborne stuff getting established before you introduce your own yeast, but used extensively in Aus for obvious reasons so we know it works

I’d be dry hopping and checking your own water profile.
Fresh hops is a major thing only 2017 pellet stored only in vac bags and in freezer.

I always crash the fv for 3-4 days and then after the first say half in the keg after same as long as I don’t disturb keg afterwards it I get clean beer.
I’m sold on that gadget though not because I need one but because I want one [emoji23]

On the basis that it’s 6-12 to get going I’d be nervous about a 72 hour ferment and then into 25. Irish Ale goes like a bugger and would be nearly done at that time and there are a couple of others. 05 is an amazingly tolerant yeast but personally I still wouldn’t risk a bump until 5-7 days min.

Holy crap!
I left starsan on elements once for a weekand they went brown [emoji853]
Out with the wire wool and neat starsan?

Nobody is telling you what to do, just discussing other options with the intention of improving everybody’s beer. If you want a show and tell and no comm...

Nice! I had a Keezer where I froze 3 lager kegs solid, one went on to win a comp [emoji23]. In my case I was controlling keezer with STC 1000 and had the probe 3/4 way up instead of the bottom. I loved keezer because of the taps but was a pita because of the constant condensation even after I put in...
