    Front venting frige or freezer for under counter setup?

    I would like to build at least 2 if not 3 5Gallon keg setup with the 3-tap tower on the counter of the kitchen island. Anyone done this setup? Kitchen island is hollow, but I still think I need to get front-venting fridge to convert to kegerator, since heat would likely build up under the...

    Should I hit my Trippel with some more yeast?

    Thanks for all the advice. I will leave it alone and will just have to make some more :-)

    Should I hit my Trippel with some more yeast?

    So looks like I should not mess with it. I would like to ferment out just a bit more sweetness out of it though. I am keging it, so not worried about carbonation.

    Should I hit my Trippel with some more yeast?

    I am brewing Bornem Trippel clone 2nd time around. It was my 3rd beer I brewed and now my 12th (or something like that). I got the flavor just right this time. It is almost perfect... it just needs more alcohol in it and I need to raise the volume a bit. The OG on it was 1.112 and 20 days...

    Can't get the CO2 pressure right. What am I doing wrong?

    Actually, now that you mentioned this, beer in the line is a bit foamy (but nothing like what it comes out).

    Can't get the CO2 pressure right. What am I doing wrong?

    So I am in a bit of kegging hell. This is what I am getting with my Belfian Wit. It is sitting in a keg at ~50F. Tried pressures 15 to 25PSI. Running a 7 foot beer line and one of those adjustable flow Perilicks... No matter what I try, I am getting this foam milk. WTH am I doing wrong?

    EKU 28 clone recipe?

    So I have already done a clone of every beer I like. Now I have one more - EKU 28. That was doublebock I used to drink in highschool (it was legal back in the old country). Anyone know of a partial mash (or extract) recipe?

    Partial mash high alcohol lager?

    So I finally got me a freezer. Can fit darn 5 kegs and only two are in there now. They are very very lonely :cross: I have mastered the art of high alcohol ales. Highest alcohol one ended up around 17%. Now I want to do something crazy with lagers. Any suggestions/recipes for partial mash...

    Bit OT: seltzer water and pop system for small office... should I build one or rent?

    Yeah we polish off more than 5 gallons per day, but vast majority of us only drink seltzer/carbed water (with splash of juice, usually). It adds up, if you have to get retail cans.

    Bit OT: seltzer water and pop system for small office... should I build one or rent?

    It is all water, baby :-) 6 espressos require that much water to not get the stones. If we drank that much beer, we would all be AAs in no time.

    Bit OT: seltzer water and pop system for small office... should I build one or rent?

    I thought about that. Problem is, we easily polish off 5 gallons of "fizzy" (as we call it) per day. I know I am at about 3/4 gallon of it per day.

    Bit OT: seltzer water and pop system for small office... should I build one or rent?

    So I am building a kegerator for the office, since I am somewhat of an "official brewer" of my 15 person office. Now that we are moving to new offices, we would love to stop buying hundreds of cans of pop every month for $$$ (add 5c deposit on each can). Do we have a vendor in here who sells a...

    How much dry champagne yeast for bottle conditioning tripel?

    So I am ready to bottle my 14%+ ABV tripel. Got me some champaign yeast for bottle conditioning. How much of the 5g packet should I put in? I got 4.5gal in the fermenter?

    Single keg kit. Where do I find one without huge $$$?

    I really don't have the budget for these serious kegarator setups. Just want to force carbonate my very high ABV beers. What would you guys suggest?
