Ok... so I built a nice fermentation chamber... everything was working just fine.... moved so I had to dismantle everything and put it back together. Brewed a few batches and popped them in the chamber to do their thing.... after monitoring them during the first week everything was fine and...

......Realized the importance of complete disassembly and cleaning of a tap that is really old..... noticed stuff growing on the wood where the tap was installed..... been awhile since I noticed.... then a closer look today... OMG there is fuzz growing out the spigot!!!! Well needless to say I...

I brewed an extract called Caribou Slobber which was amazing! Did you do a full grain of this? If so would be interested in the recipe if you care to share :)

First year planting and I ended up planting 4 different varieties and 2 rhizomes each. Did plenty of reading and got a nice mixture of dirt and manure and covered slightly at ground level with an inch or two of dirt and then mulch on top of that. Initially all but two had popped through which...

Stopped by my brew store and purchased grains for my 10 gallon batch.... picked up water and propane exchange so I’m ready to brew tomorrow!

Finally got my strings ran for my hop trellis.... only 2 out of 8 rhizomes didn’t pop up yet.... sadly something ate the top of one and broke the top of another so I don’t know what I’ll end up with at the end of the year..... first time growing them!!

Trying to figure out attaching images from mobile app.... hmmm

Was debating whether or not I should mess with airlock as it seemed rather full.... after removing it sounded like I just let the air out of a tire followed with large amounts of foam.... only assuming it had been building pressure all day while at work.... I slowly let the air escape which...

Built my keezer.... Got my first all grain under my belt with my recently acquired equipment... Installed ball valve and thermostat on my kettle and combined two chillers to make a double wort chiller with prechiller.... kind of hard to see in pictures.... learned my lesson on adding ice...

Guess I’ll have to do a bit of research to figure out if I can setup a HERMS system with this... very interesting

Lol I’d have to see what that looks like

Ok so I am guessing the 3 Home Depot go together as a kit and the igloo go together as a kit based off of sealing used on Home Depot and valves on the igloos... So what is the optimal setup or should I combine part of each... this will be my first all grain brew I am setting up for so I have no...

I believe it’s commercial beer kegs yes... I have seen people mod these for brewing kettles but was hoping there was something to use for actual kegging... by belong to do you mean I am not supposed to modify them?

Just picked up a mismatch of equipment that looks a bit custom made in igloo coolers and trying to figure out what I actually need or what is the best equipment to use out of the lot... I’ll post pictures when I get home... There is a cooler that has a copper coil with metal mesh inside all...

I bought a bunch of random stuff and the guy gave me a half keg and a full keg with a tap and co2 tank. What can I do with this? I am wanting to keg but guessing I have to get ball lock kegs to do this with? Matt
