Ask The Brewmasters

We've been dealing with awful communication and delayed order fulfillment from ICC since February. We finally received our order after hundreds of calls, voicemails, emails, an Uber Eats delivery, and even a phone call to the Canby Chamber of Commerce. 

Long story short, ICC-NW is going out of business. Word is that a handful of parts department people from ICC are starting their own venture in September 2025. Once I hear they are up and running I'll be happy to share more info.

If you want more info on my ICC-NW saga, feel free to reach out to me directly.

Hello all,

We have some old JVNW brite tanks and keep having difficulty finding parts.

We've used ICC-NW parts store, but they are pretty much non-responsive.

We are looking for Knuckle Block assemblies as these wear out pretty regularly.

Any help greatly appreciated.

I have recently started at a Brewery with a cellar of mostly JVNW vessels. 2  FV manways have issues sealing, and I am concerned that the issue is the door plate itself...and now that I may not be able to get a replacement from ICC. Anyone have suggestions? I have also failed to make contact with ICC over the last few weeks.

Thank you

ICC-NW is officially closed. My (former) ICC-NW contact stated that they were not taking any new orders this last week and only fulfilling existing orders. 

The group that will be starting up their own parts supply business should have things running early September. It will have parts for JV/ICC-NW systems.

They don't have all of their ducks in a row to start taking orders just yet. I will respond to this thread with more info as I get it. 
If you reached out to me directly, I will update you directly too.

Cheers,

Justin

Hey Steve,

These are the older flat plates (16x22). I'm new to this manufacturer, but you are saying I need to close the manway with no gasket and look for gaps? Just large gaps or are any gaps a concern?

Thank you for the help!

Weston,

That's a good question, and I don't really have a good answer to precisely how large a gap should be acceptable. However, closing the door with no gasket in place seems like a good starting point in diagnosing a problem. If there are no significant gaps (I would think anything thicker than a dime?) then the manway probably isn't the issue. If there are gaps, the next step would be to check the door plate with a straight edge to see if it is a gap caused by the plate having deformed or is the problem lies with the seating surface the plate seals against. The latter seems highly unlikely to have deformed, just due to the nature of the construction, but this is a starting point. I just left a message with a brewery that has one of those manways and asked if he'd check on how flat the door fits against the seat next time he has one empty.
