Ceptorman Posted April 13, 2016 Share Posted April 13, 2016 Weather got serious last night. Literally got hammered. I've never seen it hail like that in San Antonio. My wife's SUV look like someone took a ball peen hammer to it. My wife's Dad lives in New Braunfels, I guess I better check on him. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ceptorman Posted April 13, 2016 Share Posted April 13, 2016 After looking them up whole house mechanical filters go from$39-$500 I can't recommend THIS company enough. The build quality on their products is first rate. The Futura-10 would probably do it. I bookmarked that site….thanks. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CECAA850 Posted April 13, 2016 Share Posted April 13, 2016 and attached is one of these: http://www.onewaters...rce-technology/ Just FYI I'd have a water sample analyzed after your water treatment equipment. If you're having constant failures due to calcium or magnesium I'd wager your Amp Force Technology device is either defective or not effective. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
babadono Posted April 13, 2016 Share Posted April 13, 2016 If you're having constant failures due to calcium or magnesium Yea I know. Anything we do out here way west of the Rockies is just a band aid. I grew up in Michigan and we did not know what a calcium deposit was. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok plumber/water treatment dudes and duddetts; other than trenching thru yard and under the sidewalk to have the equipment in the garage how would you install in this situation. I don't want it outside the fence in the front yard and I don't want it outside in this corrosive environment anyway. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CECAA850 Posted April 14, 2016 Share Posted April 14, 2016 With those restrictions the best solution is to build a weatherproof enclosure where the water enters the house to contain it. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CECAA850 Posted April 14, 2016 Share Posted April 14, 2016 Maybe around the side if that's the front of the house. its hard to see the front door. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CECAA850 Posted April 14, 2016 Share Posted April 14, 2016 You could put it by the water heater but you'd only treat the hot water that way. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldtimer Posted April 14, 2016 Share Posted April 14, 2016 Wasn't really planning on it, but brisket for 1.49 and the adrenaline of the NHL playoffs (and dachshund hockey of course) has me smoking a 19 pound brisket while watching playoff hockey. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JL Sargent Posted April 14, 2016 Share Posted April 14, 2016 Wasn't really planning on it, but brisket for 1.49 Hasn't been that cheap around here in years! 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators dtel Posted April 14, 2016 Moderators Share Posted April 14, 2016 Same here, it was cheap years ago because if not cooked enough it's tough, I guess everyone figured out how to cook it ? Or they just raised the price like everything else ? Pork butt is similar but still goes on sale for ,99 a pound, hope they don't figure out how good it is if smoked for about 12 hours for an internal temp around 210 degrees. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have put a fair amount of meat on the smoker in my day, but I must admit, I've not come across a 19 pound brisket....where does one procure such a monstrous slab o' beef? Custom cut? I want to see photos!! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldtimer Posted April 14, 2016 Share Posted April 14, 2016 (edited) It was at Kroger. It was the largest one which means nothing when I choose, but it was the best one. I'll try to post pics later. The flat is relatively thin but the point was pretty big. I have about 29 inches of linear space, and this thing took up about 26 inches worth.

Mine is decidedly low-end. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldtimer Posted April 15, 2016 Share Posted April 15, 2016 This is how she finished, to about the size of the 22 inch length board: Nice and tender if not the prettiest effort: 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CECAA850 Posted April 15, 2016 Share Posted April 15, 2016 Happy Friday all. I hope that the inactivity shown by MKP and the boss merely means they're busy, not that the bosses mother's issues are occupying their time. Hopefully she'll be better soon. To everyone else, the weekend is right around the corner. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
