What did you get delivered today

[Josh Hughes]

Pressure transferring from the All Rounder to a keg would be no problem. The problem is that I boil out by the in the back yard and ferment in the basement. If it's just the PRV, I could cover the opening with cling wrap. If it's the weight I'll have to come up with another method. Maybe use an intermediary bucket to transfer the wort from the back yard down to the basement and then drain into the All Rounder.

I use foil on mine while I’m carrying it around. I don’t put the lid on until I pitch my yeast because it’s a bastard to get off.

Much cheaper than most triclamp viewports. Its just an acrylic tri clamp cap. Neat!

Nice! I make them for the 4" port on top of my conical. Spike wants something like $30 for one. Don't overtighten it, it may fracture a bit

Replenishing some stock. Mostly base malts here. With what I had in house, this should take me clear til autumn.

Fermzilla All Rounder arrived today. I wasn't planning on getting one now but, I stumbled across a link to one on MoreBeer.com that was on sale for only $99! Normally they are $154 and currently on sale for $123 (model FE118). The one I purchased is model FE168. I compared the options on both and looked closely at the photos but, could see no difference. I couldn't pass up a 1/3 off deal so I bought it! Anyway it's mine now and has been fully inspected!

I'm generally 12-15 L/ 4-5 gallons. It's fine to carry at that weight for me and I'm just going from one side of the garage to the other. Transferring to package via gas, so no lifting at that stage of the process. As Josh said the lid is a pain once there's any temperature change. Especially when you're coming back to pitch the yeast a few hours later. I use a variation on a oil filter wrench to open the screw ring part. Then use a screwdriver between the posts and the screw ring to lever the inside lid up.

That is a good idea.

Work perks. The head brewer didn't want these hop samples anymore

Quite the variety!

I like the Helios description.

I guess they also have no idea what it smells like.

Yeah that's my favorite description. I guess at 20% AA they were like, 'welp it's just bitter I guess.' Lol

The Prime Fairy dropped off a back up hydrometer. The last few I had were toss ins from Craig's List deals and given I've killed 3 of them already, it was time to buy a new one when I only had one.

 

[Over The Cliff Brewing]

Ordered a no boil kit from morebeer.com. I had to try it. Check out their website if your curiosity is tingling.

 

[BarbarianBrewer]

@Over The Cliff Brewing, be sure to report back on the results. I was kind of curious on the quality of beer you'd get out of a mix & ferment kit. But not curious enough to actually buy one.

All in the name of science.

Thanks to @dmtaylor I learned that M44 is the same yeast as BRY97, so I found a great deal on Amazon. Luckily it arrived and it's all in date until next October. Score! I'll use one of these in my Golden Ale on Sunday

 

[SabreSteve]

New propane burner. Can't wait to brew on it!

It got delivered last Friday. Thanks to my wonderful wife, I/we now have a garage refrigerator. Too bad that Corny keg sat unchilled for so many months. The Amber Ale in the keg was brewed in late February, and is essentially lifeless - it will likely end up being my first ever dumper. Soon, I will be buying one or two Torpedo kegs in 2.5 gallon size, and I will be getting back in the routine of brewing again.

Careful with those glass shelves, lol. Those weigh about 50lbs full
