DIY aquarium top filter
 
 
This is my first instructable ... I did this inorder to avoid buying expensive hanging filters or top low capacity filters and decided to do it with my own skills ...
This DIY 125 gallon aquarium filter works great ... the water happens b so clear ... it's better than the brand name filters ...
And trust me this filter cost me Rs 400 / - while the same type of filter with half ability wud hav cost me more than 1k ...
 
 
Step 1: the materials you need
 
The material for this project will be as follows:
1 - the subersible pump
2 - PVC pipes with the same diameter as the outlet nozzle of your pump
3 - PVC elbow coupling
4 - the empty plastic box
5 - waterproof seal or silicone
6 - saw knife, cutter
7 - filter media - activated carbon, ceramic-compatible rings, sponge
 
 
Step 2: step 1: cutting materials
 
 
 
After you hav collected all of your material you can begin your project:
Check the box you filter the appropriate volume according to the incoming volume flow as u don't want the incoming water to overflow.
Mine is 4 inches long, 3 inches in breath and 3 inches in height ...
 
Cut the circular hole on 1 side of your filter box to the same diameter of your pipe. You can use heated iron nails, first lay a hole and then use the cutter to cut it all around according to the diameter of your PVC pipe. The inlet should be as high as possible.
 
see the figure given below for the output. I cut a rectangle for the output.
You and increase the area of ​​your outlet according to the tariff of the water supplied as u don't want is to start overflowing ...
 
On the other hand, you hav got to make an inbetwen partition as shown in the picture so that water is collected on one side and the filtered water is filtered ... The partition shoud will be open from below to let the water flow ...
 
Put your submersible pump in a corner of your tank ... put the transparent plastic box on top of your container and measure the total height.
 
then cut the PVC pipe accordingly. Use an elbow coupling to direct the water through your pipe into the filter box.
 
 
Step 3: step 2 - glue everything
 
You can use waterproof sealer for all materials ... Gluing silicone glue is recommended as it is the safest ...
Start from first glue the partition of the filter box ... don't forget to leave the downside to the water flow open ...
 
Then glue the elbow coupling of the pipe to the inlet of the filter box ...
 
Fit the pipe to the pump ... if the diameter on the pipe is larger than that of the outlet of the pump, you can fit any soft pliable pipe in between both the elements ...
 
After the silicon has dried off, fit the pipes and the filter box together, install in the tank and start the pump to see if everything works fine ...
 
 
 
Step 4: filter media
 
Pack a little activated carbon and ceramic rings in the net-type of the net-type packaging materials separately ...
 
Then in the suction side of the box first filter cover the lower layer with a sponge, put the activated carbon layer over it, then the ceramic layer over it then sponge again ...
 
And your aquarium top filter is ready to use ... Yay !!!

Carrying comfort and handling:
 
It takes a bit of tact to find the right position. But once they sit, they sit tight - even during intense workouts. We noticed the low weight, just 5.6 grams per plug. This means you can hardly feel it in your ear. The earphones each have a touch surface for operation. Good idea, if the hair is on top, it gets a bit annoying.
 
Sound:
 
Great sound, very clean and balanced. Thanks to fast noise canceling, you hardly hear anything from the surroundings. This is great in the gym when you want peace and quiet, it could be dangerous when running in traffic.
 
Our conclusion:
 
Stylish headphones at a moderate price. Great for the gym! The seat is perfect and the sound is good. The drawback is the lack of splash protection and the sometimes fragile Bluetooth connection if you move further away from the cell phone. In addition, the appropriate app is only available for Android, which is impractical for Apple users.

The best 4-burner gas grills - fast, convenient, inexpensive



BBQ Master XL Pro - stainless steel gas grill expert assessment
 
When it comes to a gas grill, many factors play a role: the size, the performance, the quality and, unfortunately, often also the brand awareness in this country. However, it can be worthwhile to think outside the box, as the current case shows. Because we received the BBQ Master XL Pro for a test. The device shows a remarkable performance. Our report shows what we mean in detail and how the XL Pro performs in practice. Please read more products best 4 burner gas grill
 
How is the equipment?
 
The BBQ Master XL Pro is equipped with four double stainless steel burners, and an infrared back wall burner has also been integrated. These are made of high quality stainless steel. It is noticeable that the gas is evenly distributed over the entire burner surface when it is used, so a constant flame can be achieved from front to back - this enables even grilling. There is also a high-temperature hob (Beefer / Sizzler / infrared side burner) on board the XL Pro, which can have a heat of up to 800 ° C. This area is particularly suitable for searing. But more on that later. It should also be mentioned that this model is equipped with burners that, in contrast to commercially available burners, have much smaller burner spacings, and the gas outlet openings were attached at the top - and not on the sides. The result is a higher thermal efficiency and optimal heat distribution. If you look at the manufacturer's website, you will read about savings in gas of up to 20 percent. We consider that a considerable value.
 
When it comes to security, the XL Pro can really boast. The grill is equipped with a safety pressure regulator including an integrated manometer and a hose rupture protection device. The built-in manometer can carry out a leak test without the user having to do anything, so pressure losses due to leaks can be determined quickly and, above all, very very easily. We wanted to know more about that, of course, and tested how well it works in a practical test - and it worked perfectly, the artificially induced pressure loss was recognized immediately. Top: The integrated hose rupture protection ensures that the valve of the gas pressure regulator is closed should the gas hose break or tear.
 
We think the four swivel castors on the underside, two of which can be locked, are very practical. These castors allow easy maneuvering of the BBQ Master XL Pro, which can be moved or pushed so easily and, above all, by one person. For the equipment we give 4.5 out of 5 stars.
 
Usage characteristics
 
For a price of almost 1000 euros, but more on that later, you expect a grill that is almost perfectly made. We were all the more excited to see what awaits us at the BBQ Master XL Pro. It is delivered on a pallet, you should note that, it was packaged perfectly, transport damage is not an issue. After opening the box, we noticed the good workmanship straight away, we didn't notice any sharp edges or inaccuracies at first or second glance. In addition, all switches give good feedback and are easy to use.
 
The BBQ Master XL Pro offers the possibility of direct grilling. The food to be grilled is placed directly over the running burner. The result is frying at high heat. Indirect grilling is also possible, with the food lying next to the running burner. When we grilled the XL Pro showed a good grilling result, i.e. the grilled food, in our test it was steaks, vegetables and fish, could be prepared exactly and to the point. We also noticed that the fish remained super juicy - not an easy discipline for a gas grill. Why is it so: The flames could be set precisely for this, and the heat distribution was even. The thermometer on the top of the lid is useful when grilling, as it passed an accuracy test without any problems and can also be read quickly and easily. So if you like it exactly, please let the grill do it. The gas consumption was also interesting, which, as the manufacturer promised, was quite low.
 
The BBQ Master XL Pro is made of stainless steel, so cleaning is anything but difficult. If you want, you can use the grease remover «Greasecutter Fast Foam» from the manufacturer, but we don't consider it necessary to buy it, because the grill can be cleaned again with standard cleaners. It should also be mentioned that BBQ Master has a large range of spare parts. We don't believe that a replacement part has to be reordered that quickly, but it always gives you a good feeling, in the worst-case scenario, with a replacement part to be cared for. We give 4.5 out of 5 stars.
 
Price-performance ratio
 
This model is currently available for around 1090 Swiss francs. At the moment, the grill cannot be ordered in this country, but it will cost around 1000 euros (it is possible to order from Switzerland!). We think that the BBQ Master XL Pro is worth its price because it convinced in all disciplines in our test. We give this model 4 out of 5 stars.

Conclusion
 
With its Grill XL Pro, BBQ Master shows that thinking outside the box as mentioned in the introduction can definitely be worthwhile. From the delivery to the first barbecue, the device convinced us. We particularly liked the processing and grilling with the BBQ Master XL Pro, and we also think the price is reasonable. The chic look should also be addressed, the grill is definitely an eye catcher. The built-in thermometer, which incidentally scored with accuracy in our test, should also be highlighted positively. We give a total of 4.5 out of 5 stars.

What to look for in a gas grill up to 300 euros

Finding a gas grill up to a price of 300 euros is not difficult at first. Nevertheless, you should be aware of all sorts of factors that you have to consider when buying a cheaper device in order to ensure your own safety .

safety

On the one hand, it is important to pay attention to certain security seals with every purchase - regardless of whether it is cheap or expensive On the one hand, there is the CE mark , which a gas grill should have in any case.

The CE mark and the four-digit test number should always be noted on the gas grill to ensure safety in accordance with EU directives. This marking is not found on charcoal or electric grills, as it is only legal for certain industrial products.

Gas grills should also always have a TÜV seal and the GS mark (Tested Safety) in order to be able to ensure vital safety precautions.

power

Of course, you don't want to go without a delicious steak even with a cheaper gas grill. This should always be seared so as not to get dry.

Sufficient power is given when the individual burners of the gas grill achieve around 3.0 to 3.5 kW of power. If this is the case, the gas grill can reach temperatures of 300 degrees Celsius in a few minutes with the correct size and power distribution .

quality

Just because a gas grill with up to 300 euros is more in the lower price range, this should not mean that it is of poor quality. Especially with cheaper gas grills, high-quality materials should be used to ensure the longest possible service life .

Stainless steel is probably the most popular material because it rusts less quickly than, for example, cast iron. Especially with the burners, high-quality stainless steel should always be used , as this would otherwise quickly break due to the enormous heat.

If the grill is made of a different material and is always outside, covers and weather protection hoods are essential. These protect the gas grill from the elements, such as rain and cold, but also from UV rays.

Advantages of a gas grill up to 300 euros

There are now brand manufacturers who have gas grills up to a price of 300 euros in the shop. These often have all the important features to keep up with the large gas grills.

With a device up to 300 euros, as a beginner, you naturally have the advantage of first finding out whether grilling with the gas grill is something for you at all. If this is the case, accessories and grilling utensils can usually be bought even with inexpensive grills in order to increase the grilling fun even more.

Especially on the Internet, you are often lucky enough to find very good gas grills from well-known brands at discount campaigns for a significantly lower price. With a bit of luck, these are even equipped with a side burner or other features, such as a system for easy cleaning.

Disadvantages of a gas grill up to 300 euros

Even if you can find very good and high quality devices in stores nowadays, the disadvantages of a cheaper gas grill should also be mentioned;

Often gas grills in higher price categories, such as gas grills up to 500 euros or gas grills up to 1,000 euros, are made of higher quality and more durable materials . There is less chance that insufficient maintenance will result in stain rust .

The construction of gas grills up to 300 euros is often more complicated and errors in the assembly instructions can occur more often. In some cases the edges are not flush or the components appear too light and rickety.

Especially with high-priced gas grills for up to 1,500 euros or gas grills up to 2,000 euros , you can also expect many features and equipment in the standard model . This includes, for example, a rotisserie, an infrared backburner, a smoker or a side cooker, which can be ideally used for side dishes.

Where can you buy gas grills up to 300 euros?

If you don't want to spend more than 300 euros on your gas grill, it is best to do research on the Internet . Gas grills are often offered for more money, especially in specialty stores but also in hardware stores , as professional advice is added here and discount campaigns are also rare.

In various online shops, however, you can often find good offers of the best models for gas grills up to 300 euros. The advantage of Amazon , the largest internet marketplace in particular , is that real customer reviews provide an initial insight into the advantages and disadvantages of using the gas grill.

The delivery of gas grills from the Internet is also much easier, as you don't have to worry about transporting the large devices. A few days after ordering, the goods are delivered to the door, where they can be assembled and tested directly.

 

If there are any questions about setting up or using it, every gas grill manufacturer has a customer service team , which in most cases will be happy to take care of your concerns.

Charcoal grill purchase advisor
No other way of grilling can convey the grilling feeling of a charcoal grill. While gas or electric grills are practical, the incomparable smoke aroma is only created when grilling on charcoal. However, if you do decide to buy a charcoal grill, there are a few things to consider before you simply buy the next best deal that has performed well in the price comparison.
 
You should choose the grill based on your needs. To do this, you first have to deal with what the individual grill variants can do best. The size should also match how often and how much you want to grill. Last but not least, there are a number of additional features that can improve and simplify the grilling experience.

Your personal best charcoal grill

Different manufacturers have a wide variety of grill models on offer. In the top 5 of the best charcoal grills in 2020, you can find the test winners from five different categories in terms of design and price structure. Because in addition to the classic ball or column grill, there are a number of other designs that, depending on your intended use, may be significantly better or less suitable than others.

If you rarely grill or if it is a unique camping experience, it is not worth buying an expensive device. For this purpose, a simple camping or disposable grill is completely sufficient. The higher your demands, the more likely you should invest in a better model.

A column grill is an open model (also called a funnel grill) that works on the principle of a fireplace. Compared to other models, the air supply in these models is guaranteed from above and below. On the one hand, this leads to rapid and good heat development and allows you to grill well even with little charcoal. They are available in different sizes and price ranges, so that they are suitable for beginners as well as for regular grill users who want to grill quickly and easily in a small space. Indirect grilling is not possible with these models due to the missing lid.

If you want to grill indirectly, it is worth purchasing a kettle grill. These models are easy to use, available in different sizes and allow greater flexibility in the preparation of the food to be grilled, as high temperatures can be built up under the lid for indirect cooking. Some kettle grills are also very compact, so they are well suited for grilling on the balcony.

If you have more space available and grill more often, it is worth purchasing a grill cart. With these models you have plenty of space for the food to be grilled, so that you can grill for many people and you can grill both actively and passively. There is also plenty of storage space available.

If you only want to grill indirectly, a smoker can also be considered for you, but with these models you are more restricted in terms of the method of preparation.

 Size and effort

If you only have limited space, you should use a small grill model that can be used safely and safely in a small area. A cheap charcoal grill can also be a good choice here, provided it is solidly made. For use on a balcony, we recommend the kettle grill, because the models are stable, available in small versions and open fire can be avoided through the lid. In addition, cleaning and operation is relatively easy and is therefore also well suited for casual barbecues and beginners.

A funnel grill is worthwhile for everyone who wants to grill quickly and easily over high heat. Since the models often get hotter than kettle grills, care should be taken when using them on a balcony or close to walls and other elements. More expensive and higher quality funnel grills also offer a large grill area and often two grill grates at different heights. Preparing the grill requires a little more fine adjustment than with the kettle grill, since the air supply has to be added to fire it up and then taken down later in order to keep the heat long. It can be problematic if it is windy and a lot of coal has been poured in. The use is therefore a little more cumbersome for complete beginners.

A grill cart is complex, but very comfortable. Since it is usually much larger than a ball or funnel grill, it is much more effort to put it into operation. The models also require more coal for firing and the cleaning effort is greater than with smaller compact models. Nevertheless, a grill cart offers excellent options for grilling in different ways, quickly and easily adjusting the temperature and the distance between the grate and charcoal, varying the air supply and also preparing larger quantities.

Additional equipment

If you are serious about grilling and want to achieve perfect results, you should pay attention to some features that should not be missing from a good grill. First of all, all models with a lid have a well-functioning thermometer so that the temperature inside can be precisely adjusted. A grill grate that is coated accordingly and can be cleaned quickly and easily is also recommended.

You should also make sure that the distance between the grate and the charcoal can be changed quickly and easily so that you can adjust the distance between the food to be grilled according to the heat development.

 

In terms of additional equipment, a grill cart offers the best scope, but also requires the most space. Another useful feature is an ash compartment that can be emptied and cleaned quickly and easily. This saves you a lot of cleaning effort.

Tepro 1061 Toronto charcoal grill


The model from Tepro prevailed as the best charcoal grill in the grill cart category. Due to its size, a grill cart is more recommended for an open garden than for use on a balcony. The Toronto Grill was able to convince above all with its excellent functionality and a very good price-performance ratio, because the inexpensive grill cart was available for less than 100 euros in the test period, offers a grill area of ​​2x 41.5 × 27.5 cm and additional space on the upper level. With a total size of 115 x 67 x 107 cm, the grill is a comfortable size and comes with lots of additional functions such as a side table, bottle opener, suspensions and temperature sensors.

The testers particularly liked the variable heat setting by adjusting the carbon compartment with a crank. The heat on the grate could be adjusted effortlessly and easily and always ensured a perfect grill temperature. The lid can be folded down for cooking and the temperature can be easily regulated through the four adjustable ventilation openings.

The material withstood the heat well even after frequent application of heat and only the enamel layer on the back tended to peel off in some testers if it came into contact with a lot of heat for a long time. Tepro also offers a cover to match the grill so that the grill trolley can be left outside without being damaged or rusting.

It was also easy to clean because the grids are very easy to remove and easy to clean. With a weight of almost 40 kilograms, the model always stood securely on the ground. Overall, the material thickness could have been a little thicker in some places, because some parts - like the handle for the flap in front of the coal compartment - felt a bit wobbly, but the bottom line is the price-performance ratio is great and the durability is absolutely sufficient for - with good care - years of barbecue enjoyment.

The test winner among the best charcoal grills of 2020 convinced across the board with its excellent price-performance ratio. The low price comes with one or the other small weakness. Using the comparison below, you can quickly and easily weigh up whether the purchase is worthwhile for you.

Grillchef BBQ 11282 funnel grill Inox


The charcoal grill made of stainless steel by Grillchef was able to establish itself as the best funnel grill . The assembly was quick and easy and the finished grill is stable and secure despite its low weight.

With a grill area of ​​48 × 46.5cm, it offers enough space for a complete grill meal for 6-8 people and the height of 95cm was also found to be very pleasant by most testers, so that it can be used comfortably while standing. So it was not uncomfortable for tall people over 1.90 m to stand at the grill.

In terms of price, the grill is in the middle range and thus offers a very good price-performance ratio. Because of the construction of the funnel and the good air supply, the charcoal heats up very quickly and the heat can be perfectly distributed very easily.

The only disadvantage perceived as a disadvantage was that the minimum distance between the grate and the coal was too large, because this means that even smaller portions require a relatively large amount of coal to reach the correct temperature.

The long-term test showed weaknesses in the wooden handles and overall the stainless steel could have been a bit thicker. Overall, however, the grill was convincing across the board with its compact design, good price-performance ratio and good heat development and distribution. If you are not afraid of more complicated assembly instructions and are looking for a small but efficient grill, the 11282 BBQ Grill from Grillchef is the right choice.

Grillchef's funnel grill is a good charcoal grill that you can use to reach high temperatures. You can see the advantages and disadvantages of the model in the comparison below.

Weber 14505004 Master Touch Ivory 57 cm kettle grill


The very expensive model from Weber was able to assert itself as the best kettle grill , because in contrast to its cheap little brothers of the competitors it withstood the long-term tests perfectly and comes with a very good workmanship. The 57cm grill area is neatly sized so that larger portions can be prepared.

The entire cleaning concept was also far better in the test than the cheaper competition. This made it much easier to keep the grill clean and in good condition. Because the main cause of rapid wear and tear on the cheap grills is a high degree of soiling and damage and thus rust formation. This occurred much less with the Weber model, although this model also has its pitfalls in terms of cleaning in some places.

With a total weight of almost 20 kilograms, the grill also has very good stability and the wheels were also able to withstand several grill seasons in the test without damage or signs of wear. However, due to the relatively large diameter, the charcoal grill with lid should not be used on the balcony, as it is usually not possible to guarantee sufficient distance on all sides.

If you are looking for a kettle grill that should work reliably for several years, you can hardly ignore the Weber model, even if it is price - objectively considered - very expensive. Especially since the grill grate of this model is not a stainless steel grate, but a coated steel grate (chrome-plated).

The Weber kettle grill is indisputably superbly manufactured and rightly very popular among grill fans. Nevertheless, the investment is certainly not worthwhile for everyone. The following is an overview of the advantages and disadvantages of the model.

Grillchef by Landmann charcoal column grill

 

 

The cheap charcoal grill from Landmann was able to secure the test victory among the column grills. It is simple and easy to set up, but impressed with its good heat distribution and the compact but sufficiently stable construction.

With dimensions of 58x42x84cm, it can also be used on the balcony, even if you have to be careful with regard to heat development. The model has some material weaknesses, for example that the handle of the ashtray is not fireproof and with some testers started to burn or melted away or that the handles of the grill grate are a bit unwieldy.

Overall, the grill was secure, but due to its construction it was a bit wobbly, which is mainly due to the small radius of the pillar plate. But safety is still guaranteed, there was no risk of tipping over.

Nevertheless, the model was able to convince all along the line with its simple structure, very good price-performance ratio and very good grilling results, so that it is worthwhile for everyone who is looking for a simple, compact solution for occasional grilling to buy the grill .

Landmann's column grill is simple and inexpensive, but it was able to convince in the test. You can easily weigh up whether the purchase is also worthwhile for you if you compare the strengths and weaknesses.

BBQ-Toro Charcoal Grill Cart Premium charcoal grill cart


The combination device from CS Trading prevailed as the best smoker. The mobile trolley has a 73 x 38cm grill area, four ventilation slides and lots of wooden shelves. Another warming rack is built into the lid.

With the device, good results were achieved in the test with both direct and indirect grilling and smoking and the heat development was also convincing. The testers particularly liked the large range of functions and the very good material processing - especially when you consider the low price. In addition, in contrast to many other - often significantly more expensive - models, the grids are chrome-plated, which makes cleaning much easier. With a width of 110 cm and a depth of 55 to 71 cm, depending on the use of the storage space, you need a lot of space for the grill cart.

If there is enough space available and you may also want to grill or smoke passively, then the combination grill is the right choice for you. However, the model should not be left in the rain, as rust formed very quickly.

The smoker from CS Trading is fully equipped and convinced the testers with its good functionality. Below is a brief comparison of the strengths and weaknesses.
