  Its completely open when I pour, its just a mess.I burped my keg and dropped the pressure to
  ~7psi. The weird thing is that a large amount of CO2 bubbled into the keg (it was on its side)
  when I did t...

  Those calculators don't seem to work in "real world" issues. I can tell you from experience
  that the issue is right there where I "quoted" you. Switch to the same length of 3/16" line,
  and you'll be a...

  Yeah, I don't put thought into anything. I just make up random **** for the fun of it.I will
  just say this- there is a reason that beer is pushed with C02, or nitrogen. Oxidized beer WILL
  happen when ...

  In a broad sense fluid dynamics is appropriate. The motion of liquid and gas, displacement, and
  phase change between the two, etc. :pAnyway, its nice to hear from someone else who has
  actually put som...

  No, because you use co2 to push the beer out of the keg, and the o2 was never in touch with the
  beer. Once you pump the beer out with a hand pump, you oxidize the heck out of it and it's not
  even drin...

  After getting a keg, $125 is way out of my budget. Its tough being picking and poor at the same
  time :DIn short, no.The air you'd use to push the beer won't just go away, it'll go in the
  bottle as wel...

  I'd like to get a keg setup some day (just to force-carb, I'd like to then bottle it), but that
  costs money and I really can't justify spending what it requires to get a good keg system.So my
  cheap pl...

  As fermentation is winding down I'm debating wether or not I should carbonate it. I'd have to
  bottle-carb as I have no other means, and I *hate* the sediment that bottle-carbing creates. Is
  flat cider...

• Posted in thread: Grolsch bottle seals on 09-30-2012 at 02:15 AM
  I scored 13 grolsch bottles at a yard sale for $4 (i'm pretty thrilled about that), but a lot
  of the rubber seals are dried out and two are missing. I work at a hardware store, so I can get
  o-rings fo...

  A week and a half later fermentation is almost done; its at 1.010 now. Another week or two in
  the primary and I'll rack it off. Its a lot lighter in color now, and I'm sure it will lighten
  up as more ...
