    It uses R134A, which I can get at the autoparts store... but purging the line might be a problem

    Drying/Aging chamber DIY/How to w/ pictures

    Well it looks like my efforts will be set back a bit... as I was assembling the fridge today, I was putting some sheet metal screws to hold the wires in place and it started hissing... seems like I hit a freon line... I looked over the manual and documents and it never showed anything in the...

    Drying/Aging chamber DIY/How to w/ pictures

    I am also contemplating cutting the cord and adding a pin connector outside of the freezer mid cord so that I can disconnect without touching the circuit board.

    Drying/Aging chamber DIY/How to w/ pictures

    So since you are OK with me continuing in this thread, I will go ahead and run with it. Right now I am contemplating the penetrations of the freezer side to run wires through for the electricity and humidity/temp sensors. I'm probably going to try to use rubber grommets to the size of the...

    Drying/Aging chamber DIY/How to w/ pictures

    So I picked this big boy up today. The lady was getting divorced and moving from a house to an apartment and needed it gone this weekend. She had it listed for $250 but I got it for $80 dollars. I'll spend the week cleaning and sanitizing everything and hopefully start the build out this...

    Ahoy Mateys from Temescal Valley

    They estimated that 50,000 people went to Lake Elsinore to visit Walker Canyon poppies... The whole town's population is 66,000... it was crazy!

    Drying/Aging chamber DIY/How to w/ pictures

    No problem... I'm currently ordering up a few of these parts, and doing research on a few others before buying... I think the longest time will be spent waiting to buy the right fridge or freezer, as the price/condition of items on sites like offerup are touch and go, so I really want to get a...

    Drying/Aging chamber DIY/How to w/ pictures

    I'm looking at Amazon right now and see an ITC-308 and an IHC-200 combo pack. Is it possible that you have the model numbers transposed? Not trying to be a smarta$$, just checking if I am looking at the correct items, and will help others if they get confused also.

    Kitchener #8 Stainless Steel Electric Meat Grinder for Sale

    I ordered one on Amazon with free 2 day shipping... I called them after 2 weeks of not receiving it and they said they would look into it. 3 days later I received 1 unit, and the next day I received another unit. Checked my CC and they didn't charge me for 2, so I called them and the person...

    1st Belly Bacon Smoking Away

    Based on my weather app vs my chamber reading... it was approximately 49 degrees F outside, and the inside of the chamber was reading approximately 67 degrees... unfortunately I was not using another thermo to monitor outside temps, so I have to use our local weather readings to answer your...

    1st Belly Bacon Smoking Away

    Quick update this morning... at around 9 pm the AMNPS had a hard time making the turn on to the second row. I kept trying to relight it, to no avail. As it was my first time using it, I figured I had some troubleshooting to do that I didn't want to do until midnight... I pulled the bacon and...

    Ahoy Mateys from Temescal Valley

    You must feel my pain then when I say "Beware of the Poppy Peepers"! It is getting damn near dangerous on the 15 freeway with the blooms going on near Lake Elsinore... idiots parking on the side of the freeway to get out of their car to take pictures... I love the bloom, but hate the hordes...

    Ahoy Mateys from Temescal Valley

    I thought I would drop a line in the the So Cal forum and say hello. I'm happy to be among fellow meat enthusiasts! I've recently begun dabbling in the wizardry of smoking, and am doing research to gain confidence in starting to make cured meats/salumi. Any recommendations on where to procure...

    1st Belly Bacon Smoking Away

    I had a moment of "Aha!" and thought.. I can't let a good cold smoke be wasted, so I went and got some Mozzarella and Havarti to throw in the smoker!

    1st Belly Bacon Smoking Away

    I actually didn't think it was that great. It didn't have a lot of fat on it, and then I removed the skin so that removed even more of the fat. But to answer your question, I got it at our local 99 ranch, but it was labeled as coming from the USA. I have located a couple butchers in my area...
