Count me in!!

Just a follow-up. The keg was gone within a month, it was absolutely delicious and plan to make it again.

Thanks a lot for the responses. I figured as much but I had to ask just to be sure. I guess i'll have to stick with some smaller or maybe some custom made handles from white-lab vials.

I recently purchased some perlick 525ss faucets for my new kegerator. When I went to attach the tap handles to them they tend to lean backwards a decent amount. They lean back enough that they are easily knocked forwards whenever I open my keezer lid which causes the faucet to open. Is there any...

I just did this recipe , using 6 pounds of Weizen DME and 3 pounds of extra light DME. Got a nice OG of 1.100 so we'll see where it goes. I'm excited regardless.

I just recently fininished my kegerator build with plans to post pictures later. In efforts of avoiding a leak for a leak in the gas line by pressurizing the line and turning off the tank. Both manifolds held pressure when open with no issues. I pressurized the pin lock keg and let it sit for a...

Sorry I think I read too much into your post and took offense to how you phrased it. Regardless I didn't state too much about the brew b/c there were a few mistakes in the process(being drunk and reheating the grains during mash) and I was using a few techniques that are relatively new to me. I...

I currently have a chest freezer I am hoping to convert into a keezer very soon and thinking about trying to create a second box made of insullation panels that is cooled by the keezer. Here is my plan... I acquired a cooling fan kit (Cooling Fan Kit) through craigslist and was going to use...

Thanks, short, sweet, too the point

I figured it was a pretty straight forward question but I'll expand. It's actually my fifth batch but my first high gravity batch and my second partial mash . I'm brewing a Northern Brewer Tripel Partial Mash kit...

Does sediment/particulat matter in the primary/secondary skew the specific gravity? AKA if the beer obviously hasn't settled out yet does and still looks like there is a lot of junk in there does it increase the specific gravity?

I forgot to mention I added some extra sugar(ish) to kick it up an extra 1% using http://www.austinhomebrew.com/product_info.php?cPath=178_21_73_404&products_id=10137 . I will definitely test my hydro and take more Brix readings in the future as I never thought about that. I did dilute...

When I finish making my wort sometimes there are a large number of suspended particles whether it be from hops/grains/ect. Does this skew the original gravity? For example I just brewed what was supposed to be a...

I'm looking to buy new or used keg equipment such as CO2 Regulator, Co2 Tank, valves, corny kegs, Co2 lines, ect. I check my inbox regularly so let me know if you have any for sale. I'm currently located in the Triad area and make regular trips to the triangle but am willing to drive elsewhere...
