Bump of an old thread...

I've been looking into a few DIPA recipes (both US and UK) and this bittering extract comes up quite a bit.

Anyone use it? Anyone know of a UK supplier that has smaller quantities that the 400g tins at simply hops?

I own it now. It was second hand but re-certified (or whatever it's called!) by them so good for 10 years.

I bought a 6kg bottle from this place. Think it was £65. Worth a ring to see if they have any in.

Something like this might help... http://www.kegerators.com/carbonation-table.php Although I go the less technical route of setting it to around 12 psi and check every few days to see if its done :) If you want it carbed fairly fast I've set my regulator to around 40psi for th...

If you do decide to go for two elements, and a single 32A feed, then take a look at the Neutrick PowerCON connectors. I've linked to the 32A range, but they also do a 20A range . . . they are much smaller and neater than Commando connectors, although that does come at a price. Of course you would o...

@UpTheToon: You mean this thread? Yep. The is my current draft of my wiring diagram. Not checked out by an electrician, no guarantees etc etc. I've got a relay in front of the main power in and the (single) element. http://i.imgur.com/PlIO4AW.jpg I'm using din rail components, here's where I'm at s...

It might be good to get the electric brewery book and get more educated on the subject it may confuse you more as american electrickery is slightly diffrent to ours There's a 240V sticky in their forum but its quite a project to get your head around if you are new to that sort of thing. I'm just do...

Aye, I saw this a couple of weeks ago. It is actually cheaper to buy one or two kegs now with all costs in.

S spear only and no personalisation though.

Wiring diagram came off the internet somewhere and isn't mine!

haha, no bother. I'm re-doing my BIAB controller and would love to be able to map out the wiring like that.

Nice fancy wiring diagram! What did you do that in?

Ha, great, different sizes. yep,and different to the neutrik standard 19/24mm used on the majority of there panel connectors ](*,) .I use a 25mm hole punch,its a nads loose for the ins and a bit of filling needed for the outs,but saves a few quid,unless of course your fittings 100's of the buggers ...

Thanks for the quick response!

resurrecting this old thread... Does anyone know what size hole is needed for the panel mount "powerCON TRUE1" connectors? I can't find the answer anywhere, I did see the technical drawings on the official site but they just confused me more. Trying to price up a simple control panel build and seein...

Thanks!

I didn't realise you could open them up without knacking them.

There were a couple of grains that must have made it past my bag and false bottom. Got them out and it's as good as new!
