    Whirlpool Chiller

    I think the main thing (in terms of cooling) is just turbulence. Even if you don't get a full-on whirlpool happening. More wort gets exposed to the cooling element so it will work more effectively. :icon_offtopic: Like a Y strainer or something? Any chance of some more info?

    Computer Fan Power?

    Usually they will run from 7 volts up. So keep your old plugpacks!

    Videos - How To Make A Mash Tun & Immersion Chiller

    Fully Automated Brewing System Design

    Thanks mate that'll save me a lot of time looking. Do they talk to the public or is it businesses only? Yeah, the UBW is some nice kit. I've got one at home, but ended up custom cooking a 16f88 based board instead for that particular project. Looking forward to my next project with an...

    Fully Automated Brewing System Design

    Off topic: In the pic, did that 1/2 BSP to 1/4 compression fitting come with that probe or did you buy it separate? I'm looking for a similar fitting... Which relay boards are you using, what pic is on them, where did they come from etc - more details? Wouldn't you custom cook something...

    Bits And Pieces Coming Together At Last

    Today I got some stuff built and stuff mounted. Next weekend I am going to use up my last can of goo in a BIAB Partial Irish Stout and also do a AG BIAB Dr. Smurto. The Ute Tray Wind Break. I'm going to attack it with a wire brush on the grinder or drill later. All the way down to 160RPM...

    3-ring + Standard Reg

    Do you think I would require heat shielding below a 3-Ring burner with a standard reg? The surface underneath will potentially be form ply. Cheers, Tim.

    Water Flow Meter

    I was also looking at the BES units -- So you can buy them without the digital read out ready to wire to your favourite micro/pc?

    45kg Gas Bottles Any Vics Using

    I made a similar enquiry (though I'm in NSW). They would only supply a 45Kg bottle if it was fixed. They would only supply a 45Kg bottle non-fixed in industrial areas =(

    Computer Controlled Beer Fridge

    Looks good! I like your controlled rise and fall stuff. I've been messing with a similar project but Python/Postgres/Parallel port based (soon to be Python/Pg/RS232/PIC based) system. I've built in set points with date stamps on them to accomplish this - you can schedule ramp-ups and downs or...

    Fully Automated Brewing System Design

    You don't need that crap - just the concept. Think the same as the soap dispenser but circular and without a top. Multiple cavities around the circumference. I'll draw one for you tonight if I have time. That will also be much lower profile than the pill dispensers. You probably _do_ want a...

    Fully Automated Brewing System Design

    OK here you go Bandito here's a quick mock-up for you - This is what I mean... Picture yourself standing at the double ended green arrow. You push the plunger in, the cavity fillls from the chute. You pull the plunger toward you, it dispenses out the bottom... Although probably not...

    Fully Automated Brewing System Design

    Just some thoughts... Are you thinking something like this pill dispenser system upside down for hops? Pre-measured increments per division eg 1 gram or recipe specific increments per division? One carousel for each hop type or premix per division? Wouldn't you want much more than "30...

    Mash Temp Monitoring.

    It might not be your cup of tea - but I've been using a DS18B20 sensor on the end of some flat phone cord that I heat shrank and sealed. I have a small laptop that I use with a python script that reads the temperature. (The script you see is actually a ferment fridge controller I wrote that's...
