I like the wood paneling idea, not sure how hard it would be to remove the glass but worth looking into. I think the faucets will go out through one of the ends, 2 rows of 6. I can fit 12 1/6 bbl kegs in there without stacking. I think I will put a nylon board across the back wall to mount...

Lol, not sure I was probably messing around with stuff and left it that way. I probably was sampling a few and it went down!

Hi all, In the process of getting back to it after moving. It has been a long process and a tough brewery conversion in my new garage. I'm on septic now so that has it's own challenges. I. The process of moving my brewing computer's hard drive was damaged and I lost everything. I have a new...

Sorry to resurrect an old thread but I did this on my 1 bbl system and wanted to share a photo

Wow tons of good info here. Im thinking of going with the 029, just wasnt sure about it giving the fruity character. What about dry hopping while the yeast are still active? When is the best time to add the hops so tje yeast help pull out the special oils im after?

I've been all grain brewing for almost 2 years now. I have all hand me down equipment which is in good shape and always cleaned. I have about 15 to 20 batches under my belt both my own creations and recipes I have found on this forum. I feel that every batch tastes tangy. Others have...

This looks good. I too dislike the bitterness left behind on the back of your toung from a strong ipa but really enjoy the hop flavor blast at first. Going to have to try this.

Crap i was afraid of that, i have another one sitting in the same place that u need to move asap but its already been there 2 weeks.

So the last batch of blonde ale i brewed tastes very skunky. It fermented in primary for 1 month and secondary for a week. The fermenters sat on my tool bench in the garage were afternoon sunlight came in direct contact with them every day. Could that cause skunky taste or is it just to green...

What would be the result of pitching on the entire yeast cake other that just waste
