Well a blow off tube is not a must......... but I recomend it

I would love a cat skeliton ........ would be good above the fireplace! ;)

blow-off tudes are the way to go IMO....... don't ever have to worry about exploding beer due to a clogged air-lock....

hmmm I have been wondering....... I am here on Long Island NY and mine have not surfaced at all yet...... is this normal, its been about 2 months now........ but it has not really warmed up much! :confused:

Been using the moss for years........

Thanks for the info.... :D

Any one every use one? would love to bottle faster....... also where does it get the pressure from? what source? C02?

well 5 weeks and its bottled, man that took a long time! it thined out nicely, it was very thick when I transfered it to the secondary. I can't wait to try it, prob wait another week and try a bottle just too see how it tastes.

got mine a week ago, will plant it this week, the rain seems to have stopped for a few days........ :D

the cost of the canasters, also lazy, would rather just mail-order them to the house. I was looking more at the 3 gallon ones, in which I can get rid of it in a day at my house, but only like a few days a year, or even for camping where I would drink it over 2 days with a bunch of friends...

I see your point, I could go through 5 gallons in a night a few times a year with no problem, I just did not want to bother with the CO2.... hmm maybe those little keg's they are like a gallon or so and can use the small CO2 cartridges.

Anyone know if I can just buy a normal type of hand pump for these kegs, I found one on the web and only one........ normal type tap like on the commercial kegs....... I don't want to force carbonate and I don't want to bother with the CO2'z

I just bought Cascade hops and waiting on them to come in..... I hear they grow like 9+ inches per day..... should be fun to watch.....

I have been using homebrewheaven.com pretty good service and the kits come nicely sealed together.

I love my blow off........ I can squeeze a couple of extra beers in..... :)
