HolzBrew, 10 gallon batches. The Blichmanns are expensive, but I wouldn’t say overpriced. They’ve probably been the single best investment we’ve made in our equipment. Much easier to work with than carboys and also helped us to achieve greater consistency from batch to batch, which is one of our primary goals. We get our equipment from a number of places. There’s a great local homebrew shop here. We also shop at McMaster-Carr, NorthernBrewer.com and various other places.

What size batches do you guys usually brew? I see that you ferment in the blichman stainless conical fermenters. Eventually I’d loved to get a conical, but they seem so overpriced. Where do you guys buy your equipment? Online? Locally?

I love a good scotch ale. I’m sure it will turn out great.

Yeah, stuck sparges… I remember my first one…

It could be because the mash was 50% rye.

Or it could be that my neighbor, in his first attempt at setting up the mash tun, put the manifold in upside down.

Or it could be both. But I mainly blame him.
