SWTFYW Hints and Hauls!!!

Grisette batch #2. Classic belgian farmhouse yeast characteristics with a nice blend of brett and wine barrel added in. Lovin' this place!

 

My mind was not prepared for 2 years worth of tastings for this guess....

 

Ranco single stage (ETC-111) works great for my fermentation heat wraps, and I hear that they work just as well for refrigeration equipment. Get two stage (ETC-211) if you're fermenting in there and want a heat wrap hooked up too.

www.hvacpw.com is where I got mine, they were the cheapest around when I was buying a year ago. You have to hook up an extension cord on your own, but it's significantly less costly than going through a homebrew retailer to get a pre-wired one.

edit: The ETC-111 is about $50 + $15 for an extension cord, right in your budget. If you need the dual stage it's worth it, but will cost about double that.

 

Certainly not in Massachusetts

 

LIF time!

This will be a multi-part LIF with the person scoring the most points winning a box of very good Florida brews.

A local brewery is releasing some leftover beers tomorrow. Unfortunately I have to work, and I am on call, so at any moment I may be called back to the hospital. Answer me the following questions:

1. What beer am I going to stand in line to buy?
2. How many bottles of this beer will I purchase?
3. Will a bottle of this beer be included in the winning LIF box?
4. How long, in minutes, will I wait in line to buy these bottles. I will time from when I get out of my car, until I have all the bottles in my possession.

Good luck everyone!

 

Thanks man! I'll probably just go with the 211 just in case I need it.

 

Is it LIF season right now?

1. I think you're getting some more Thursday from Cycle
2. A case!
3. Yes!
4. It will take you 77 minutes to get those beauties.

Thanks for the chance!

I'm on call tomorrow too. Hoping the best for ya!

 

It's kinda always LIF season 'round these parts.

 

If you are even a little bit handy, buying an STC-1000 is the way to go. I have a number of them and they work great. You can hard wire them inline, or mount them in a project box with an outlet. They are dual temp controllers, so they can have one setpoint for cooling and one for heat.

Look no further. Need nothing but to plug it in the wall and your frezeer or fridge into it. Digital and the probe can be submerged. I use one for a keezer and like it better then the ranco I use for my fermentation freezer.

 

This is the one I used as well. Worked like a charm.

 

Combo breaker!

And a simple thank you for your trustees. I'm hoping to get a membership and get my brother in law who moved to the area to be mah mule. But if you have room Id rather you and shower you with beer in return.

 

Indeed the easy way. More expensive but easy as hell. Mine has been a rock for several years. Don't even touch it.
