Hello. I'm new to the kegging scene and I'm having some trouble with co2 tanks going empty on me quick. This is the second time its happened to me. After the first time I lost all my co2 I double checked all the connections to make sure there were no leaks and I didn't find any. Next I turned...

This is the only olace in Atlanta that I've heard sales the "food grade" co2. I live close to barrett pkwy I wonder what "type" of co2 is used for paintball? And how much more harmful is it compared to the food grade?? Hmmmm... Thanks for all the information!

After cooling down my wort to yeast pitching temps I transfer it to the carboys and have a strainer sit a top the funnel. I've been told that gives the wort enough aeration for the yeast. I've been doing this for years and haven't had any off flavors of oxidation to speak of. Good luck brewing...

New to forum but been brewing for 3 years. Just made the jump to all grain last year. My buddy and I brewed 10 gallons of PaleAle today and about ready to tap my first kegged home brew...a kolsch next week. I live in Powder Springs, looks like a few of us brew/live on the west side! I brew about...

I got tired of doing the swamp cooler so I got an old fridge from a friend, bought a Johnson contols thermostat and my beer ferments at a lovely 65 degrees year round down here in hotlanta.
