"Fermentation process took a long time to start even when I started the yeast."
"Great and get's the job done."
"It doesn't provide any weird off flavors when you ferment in the suggested temperature range, ferments reasonably fast (my usual stuff takes a month or so with this one, although you can cold crash for a less dry brew of course), and gives you the satisfaction of brewing your own adult beverages."
"Bought this to re-pitch because some yeast that came in an extract kit got stuck."
"19 months before expiration date, and a few bucks cheaper than my LHBS and any other mail order site."
"Great way to get some yeast for brewing ale and cider."
"Good quality yeast that I use for cider."

Best Pneumatic Air Cylinders
Air cylinders (also called pneumatic cylinders), the most common type of linear actuators, use pressurized air to pull and push piston rods in and out of cylinder barrels. Pneumatic cylinders can be either single acting, with one compressed air port to push the rod in a single direction and a spring to return the rod, or double acting, with two compressed air ports on opposite ends of the cylinder to both extend and retract the rod.

Reviews
Find Best Price at Amazon"It's lightweight and compact, which is good, but not rugged enough to withstand the day to day rough and tumble in a backyard garden over the long term."
"I had a rough go of the hose first time around but the customer service was great."
"Never thought that I would ever get rid of my old 100 foot hose with storage box."
"If you have a hose real with an exposed edge (like the simple aluminum arc), the hose can contract hard against that edge."
"Very nice, I use this hose around the front of the house."
"It adds extra effort u to keep inside or covered area in very hot climate."
"I think calling this expandable is misleading, as the hose dose get larger in diameter, but I actually get less hose extension than I have with other expandable hoses due to problems with sputtering and lack of flow when I try to pull the hose along with me."
"leaks from random points along the hose."
Best Industrial Pumps

Reviews
Find Best Price at Amazon"The pump will only pump out about 5 inches of water from a 22inch diameter pit during one cycle, this takes the pump less than 3 seconds to do and leaves about 4 inches of water in the bottom of the pit."
"They seem to last 3-6 yrs depending on the conditions used - mine activate on average every 2-3 minutes, sometimes as frequently as every 20 sec during a heavy storm. 2) RUBBER FLOAT LEVER BOOT: The rubber boot/seal where the float lever enters the pump cap assembly will harden over time, providing just enough resistance for the lever not to activate the pump switch (very frustrating to find the pump submerged underwater, then the slightest movement triggers the motor) - keeping this lubricated with a bit of silicone grease will help prevent or solve this problem. These will get clogged over time and can cause an unlikely 'airlock' situation where the impeller with turn freely within a pocket of air and not push any fluids."
"The on/off cycle is too short, I think, and a longer vertical float distance would be nice, but I trust this little beast to handle the worst possible deluges."
"While I always bypass the float switch in favor of an external electronic switch, the pumps have worked flawlessly."
"It sounds just like my garage door moving but lasts much longer because it is pumping."
"These seem to work for 5 years."
"This is just a quality pump."
"I was a bit confused about the weep hole, and when and where it is necessary as well as whether the one way Zoeller backflow preventcal valve and would urge them to include some idiot directions for people like me."

Best Tubing, Pipe, and Hose

Reviews
Find Best Price at Amazon"Screen is easy to read, very precise compared to analog type chuck, comfortable to hold, easy inflate deflate trigger, and the BEST part of this is, you can buy three of these before you buy a snap on one. Compared to my co workers snap on chuck, there is no difference at all besides the price tag."
"Eliminates the drill of take gloves off, fumble with cap, fumble with pressure gauge, get stable reading after third try, warm hands, inflate, fumble with gauge, warm hands again, inflate more ‘cause you’re still too low, hands starting to hurt from being cold, hunt for cap lost in snow – and repeat 3X."
"I use the astro 3018 inflator to fill about 12 tires and it worked very well and exactly as described .Did not have any issues at all and Inserting the batteries was not bad."
"Purchased for motorhome tires, because it takes a long time to pump one up and if you have to bend over and hold the bit on the tire-stem your tire your back will hurt after finishing just one tire."
"Living in New England, we can have 20 degree (or more) temperature swings in the course of a few hours which wreaks havoc with tire pressures. Connect to a pressurized air source,attach the chuck to the valve stem and depress the trigger fully to inflate."
"On the first unit I did call them just incase I was doing something wrong, but just a faulty unit, they returned my call in a timely manner, and went through some things before deciding the unit was bad. The unit is big in the hand, and, as such it's easy to use, inflate/deflate is easy, dial is clear to see, and the fact it illuminates makes checking pressures easy in the dark part of the garage."
"Okay... it was bloody hard to figure out how to get the battery installed. But you should note, that if you are working in a shop environment, you probably don't want issues with the battery falling out."
"I made a simple improvement to the inflator for comfort and safety while airing up my beadlocks. This allows me to stand (instead of kneeling on the rocks) and remain out of the way of the beadlock ring."

"This part is a must purchase if you are installing the Delta RP54870 Renovation Kit - 600 Series Tub/Shower to replace the horribly outdated round plastic knob and shower diverter stem that pokes out of the round wall escutcheon trim plate."
"This is just what is needed to remove a push button shower diverter valve so that a modern escutcheon plate and pull up tub faucet can be used."
"A pricey little fella, but this is the exact piece you'll want when updating a faucet."

"I had been sold a cheap piece to plug that size pipe by a hardware store, but it didn't have the larger cap on the end or the rubber washer; as a result, it leaked."
