Hey guys, while I'm relatively handy diagnosis is far from one of my specialties. My kegerator (which I put a ton of effort and love into) is no longer cooling. The compressor seems to be running, and the light is on, both of which suggest to me that the electric system is functional. However...

50 cal shell, decapitator, smiley face, crappy standard one, 3 travel ones. Then two wine openers. 9 I suppose. That's if we're not getting inventive. Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

I don't think pouring into another is gonna do anything but increase the risk of infection. Just gotta roll with it now I think. I know guys who "sanitize" with soap. Not that that is wise, but hey, they don't get infections every batch. If I had to bet id say you're fine unless it was really...

The flavor you describe is very similar to my plight. Upon talking to my lhbs owner I believe it is my water. High in chlorophenols. It can extract extra tannins from the grains. Try using store bought water. I haven't tried it yet but I will in my next brew Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

Whoooooa. I want that on of those. You got it for $85? I'll give ya $90 Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

haha, not many brewers probably double their mash tun for that. I was telling my girlfriend about that and she thought it was weird. If I just went and made a sous vide oven she'd have no choice but to try it! Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew
