I use a special blue hose for "potable" water.

That, and a warning not to stir! I think we're getting the measure of them now!

That makes sense. The lining would also mean that the barrels do not have to be manufactured accurately enough to be watertight.

Has anyone been tempted to buy one of these for storing an impy stout in? Vintage Wood Oak Timber Wine Barrel - They look reasonably priced and tempting. However on reading the description it says something about it being unsuitable for ageing wine as it is not a "non denier" one. Anyone got...

They sound a bit different, count me IN please!

30 per cent of Americans are boycotting Corona beer because of the virus!

Light covering in York!

I'd be interested in some Citra, maybe El Dorado, Centennial, etc. 4 X 250g of stuff for IPAs

That looks promising, and you're only using half the claimed wattage, which gives you a safety "buffer" - not pushing it to the max. My boiler's wattage is 2.1-2.6kw, so slightly less of a buffer, but I'm tempted to try it. Interesting that it comes with a UK plug, despite the picture.

Sounds good, could put one to good use.

Thanks very much, just bought it now. Might resurrect this thread in about 2 weeks time when it arrives, to seek further advice. Got to say your installation looks very professional. I'm sure mine won't look as good as that, but if I can get to do it safely I'll be happy. Once again, thanks...

Yes, a voltage controller is the route I'd prefer to go down, as I believe constantly switching the element on and off would shorten its life. Is the item, or something similar, still available on Ebay? Could you post a link if so? Thanks.

I have an Inkbird for controlling fermentation temps, but don't think it can control voltage, just on and off. Can you show me a PID which would be suitable for controlling the boiler.

Thanks but it's not temperature control I'm looking for. I'm using the boiler to boil wort. I need to reduce voltage to the element to get a rolling boil rather than a volcanic one

I have recently bought a stainless steel boiler which I have converted to home brew use by changing the tap and disabling the sensor. I used it recently for wort boiling and found it difficult to maintain a rolling boil. I hand to manually control it switching the element on and off via the...

I realise this might be a bit cheeky, but can the 15% off code be used alongside the free ice jacket for the 6 nations promotion? Would be pleased if you could send the code. Thanks. What weight of hops do you get in the cans on your website? Couldn't see it mentioned, but maybe I just missed it!
