  I found this thread trying to find an answer to the same question. I found this website but I
  know nothing about them. Anyone ever tried them?

  Anyone watch the video to the point where they racked to secondary? It sounds and looks like he
  said they add water to the secondary until it fills up the neck. Aren't they just watering down
  their be...

  Well I don't dive with 100% O2 so no. But 100% O2 makes everything extremly flamable,That's not

  he has a...

  So is there no way to filter so I don't have any?It's not a filtration issue, when you add

  Bottle conditioning will always leave sediment. Don't worry about it, just always pour into a

  system real wel...

  Thanks guys, I ended up using the 8.32 value, and calibrated the whole keg. I know it might
  sound overly complicated and unnecessary, but I think true volumes are important and measuring
  this sightgla...

  Well there is quite a bit of difference between the density of water at boiling vs room temp...
  but what you really need to decide is at what temperature are you going to take your
  measurements. Every...

  I'm confused. You're going to measure a weight of water, pour it into your kettle, and mark the
  sight glass according to the level?So, the sight glass is measuring a volume, ultimately. Say

  A little more research turned up this which appears to be fairly accurate although different
