Thanks everyone for trying to help. The flange itself is actually 6 1/8 roughly, that’s why I was assuming it’s a 5.5in. It’s in between the 5 & 6 sizes. I don’t have a caliper large enough to measure the actual OD of the pipe. Brewershardware does sell replacement parts but nothing else, so...

Can you post a picture with dimensions? I would be interested just need to make sure it will fit.

I recently was able to grab a used large wort strainer (5.5OD strainer from Brewershardware) but the main body TC is 5.5in, not your normal 6 or 4. I’m trying to find alternative uses for it so I can but it to work for more than just a wort strainer but finding 5.5in (155mm) parts seems to be a...

Soak the keg with pbw and then starsan, as long as the liquid runs pretty clear, you know you don't have rust and now it's actually clean and holding water.

Thanks for the reply Cas, that's what I was thinking too, not a straight line of taps but more of a staggered two rows of two. Maybe even have the two outside taps slightly angled out so that the handles aren't hitting each other. I was planning on shaving off the door compartments already so...

I'm looking into beginning a side-by-side conversion but I wanted to pick people's brains before I get too far along. Has anyone been able to fit four cornies and four taps on the freezer side of a side by side? I'd really like to move away from my keezer (tired of picking up kegs and cleaning...

Have you figured out which STC-1000 brand you like better? I'm about to start buying the parts for my side-by-side build and if I gain any lessons learned I'd be much appreciative.

That's a good point, I have heard something about Olive oil and o2 as well, I'll have to read up on it more. I would imagine it would cause issues with head formation but if the yeast could eat though it with little oil left over it could be possible, interesting thought. Sent from my iPhone...

Though smaller bubbles do help the bubbles actually have very little to do with it, they move too fast and little of it has time to dissolve into solution. Most of your oxygen will come from contact with the surface. The bubbles more provide a surface churn so that more of the volume has time...

I don't disagree with your point however the getting extra equipment part is the problem and won't change anytime soon, hence the necessity of this test. The other point here is we all are know what the pitch requirements are due to years of testing, however that assumes a certain amount of...

The problem with re-oxygenating is I don't have a way to introduce more than the headspace would allow (no air stone/oxy tank) and since the corny is so narrow that won't be much air at all. I'm trying to limit the amount I open the system at this point, I don't have a choice when pitching the...

I decided to try a few no chill batches directly into my corny. The first couple batches came out good but I was still a little worries about oxygen/other baddies being sucked back in while they cooled. This is my third batch now and I tried connecting it to the co2 at 1-2 psi just to keep it...

Looks awesome, job well done. Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew
