I'm using the x ring for the lid. They work great on all 15 kegs I have, both pin and ball lock and they are a mix of manufacturers as well, so I feel pretty confident recommending them. I believe if you look back in this thread I posted the exact ones I ordered, off hand I can't be certain if...

I know running refrigerator/freezer/ whatever with external temperature controllers can potentially cause issues that shorten their lives. Specifically I have been warned against the compressor starting up again when it is still hot. As a result I have set the compressor delay on all my STCs...

Any ideas on causing rust to accelerate and break down metal? I pulled the coils out successfully, however the bracket that had held it in the dehumidifier is very rusty. I don't think I could remove it all so I was hoping to get to it rust to the point it would just flake off. I was thinking...

ITC-310T, please! Thank you!

While away for an extended period of time it seems by keezer has malfunctioned. I had it set for around 2C but when I came home it was sitting around 9C and running continuously. I opened it to find a large, solid block of ice (18" long maybe 3-4" tall and sticking 2-4" off the side and into...

In! Thank you.

Kentucky, thanks.

All gone? I'll take one if not but figuring I'm most likely too late.

I should have specified with regards to aging I was referring to commercial beer in sanke kegs. These questions were mostly prompted by a conversation with a rather astute bar owner who has observed over time (with many vintages/breweries/styles) that kegged beer just does not cellar in the...

I have two questions related to sanke kegs. I am not sure where to put this question so I went with general beer. First, why does beer and sanke kegs not carbonate? If you have experience otherwise please post, however in talking with multiple brewers and bar owners it seems that a beer...

Subbed.

I don't have anything to contribute but would really like to see a recipe for this as well. Thanks.

In, please!

Does De Bom have much of a krausen? I think first post said he went through 3 in 7 days and then a pelicle formed but has there been much volume to the foam for other users?
