I am in!

I got mine from Kegconnection, and other than a damaged regulator (shipping, which they replaced right away no questions asked) I love it. They seem to have very good customer service, and stand behind their product.

I saw Bud Dry and Bud Ice in Austin Texas last time I was there about a year ago. But I have never seen them here in Oregon.

I made an Amber from Brewing Classic Styles, and everything went well until it came time to put it into my betterbottle. I have only used buckets until now, and tried using an Siphontap with poor results. Ended up using my Autosiphon, but it was getting clogged with hops and crap, so I kinda had...

Hmmm I placed an order today for the 4 keg setup, and they still had the free upgrade promo on the homepage. Hope I get it....

my fermentation seemed to take quite a while, but I also dumped in my apple juice after it had sat overnight in my garage. It was prolly a little on the cold side when I pitched my yeast. But after a few days it was bubbling along fine, with just the small bubbles that are shown in EdWorts...

I noticed when I pitched mine, the yeast kinda went half way down and sat in the middle of the juice for the first little bit. It was kinda weird, like there was an invisible shelf in the middle of my carboy. 1 month later and its getting really clear now. :mug:

Awesome, thats a keeper right there. Congrats on the new toy.

this gives me hope for my Wit that I bottled about 4 weeks ago, but still tastes terrible.

Everything I have heard or read says no, a starter is pretty much required for any beer. MrMalty.com says at least 1.5L of starter for a 1.062. 1 pack of yeast will work, but it would be better with more.

I stumped it with Luke Skywalker, it gave me some guy from wing commander so it wasn't too far off.
