cheers

Yeah just the standard taps, thanks for the info. I really don't like that this happened and am going to upgrade to the Perlick 650 or maybe even the 690 if I can find a decent price. They should fit on the standard shaft no problem?

have had these taps for a while and never had a problem. I went to have a beer and the tap was stuck because I hadn't had a beer in a week or so. I sprayed a little starsan on it and let it soak for a minute or so and then tried to open the tap and it didn't budge but beer started pouring out...

I bought this setup and it held temps great but as I moved it after emptying I noticed there was the tiniest of leaks with maybe 4 drops on the table. I thought the two rubber gaskets would have worked but maybe I have to use silicon in there.

I really enjoy that beer and can no longer get it around here, anyone attempt an all grain brew for this? This is the info On their website. INGREDIENTS YEAST Ale yeast BITTERING HOPS Nugget FINISHING HOPS Nugget MALTS Two-row Pale, Caramel, Chocolate, Wheat, Brown OTHER Cold...

Just wondering if anyone has any experience with the water cooler below and know if this ball valve kit would work with it? https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000F6SHTK/?tag=skimlinks_replacement-20 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01I9L5P3S/?tag=skimlinks_replacement-20

That is awesome!!

I remember the entire basement was a beer. He also had pics of the garage in his house and and he had a porsche or something.

I have searched for a half hour and cant find the thread with the beautiful home bar someone made. Can someone please point me in the right direction? I am just trying to show my buddy that is getting interested in home brewing

there's a whole lot of angry people in here.

ya I have a stick on thermometer on my bucket and carboys. They showed 24 degrees C at first but after the fermentation slowed they went down to 22. I thought that was in the right range. I dont know how I am going to get it any cooler, that is in the coolest part of my house.

like unionrdr said, its pre-hopped. Boiling or even heating that up a lot will just remove any hop flavor. You just want to warm that up a little so it's easy to pour into the water. Those Coopers cans are basically just a concentrated beer, add water to them, aerate, add yeast and let ferment

I never used any table sugar, just added the enhancer 2. So the temps got too high during fermentation then? thanks for the response!

carboys are one of the cheapest things to buy, I would just go get a new 5 or 6 gallon one. You would know it wasnt scratched and didnt have any weird stuff in it at some point.

Hi guys, I have made the Draught and the Canadian Blonde so far, with each one I used the enhancer 2. I let each of them ferment for about 4 weeks and then kegged them. Both had a green apple taste and I really didn't like them at all. I just got the IPA and picked up another enhancer 2...
