That cost wasn't just for the kegerator, but everything. It was also the kegs, the regulator, the additional co2 tank, cleaning kit, shipping, etc.

Kegco dual tap kegerator set up for ball lock kegs. Also included are two five gallon ball lock corny kegs, two 5 lb co2 tanks, a two keg regulator (with separate adjustments for each keg), and a line cleaning kit. System is like new with only about 6 months of usage. Lines have been cleaned...

Thanks for the help everyone. I actually made a rookie mistake on this one. I took the gravity reading before aerating the wort. Once I did, the OG was still off slightly, but very close (1.045 for 1.050).

I have been considering using it in an Oktoberfest. I don't really have the capability to keep the temp at 50 for the fermentation but do have the fridge space for lagering. I just wast sure if doing so will give any benefit.

So, when using the California Lager yeast, is it beneficial to still lager the beer after fermentation?

A lot of good info in this thread. I have been brewing for a couple of years, but have only done ales (I've stayed away from lagers because I haven't had the fridge space, etc.). I am looking to try my first lager and had a couple of questions. My first was is ok to lager in a keg rather than...

So, I was wondering about this one. I did a hefe with Weihenstephan yeast. It has been fermenting in the basement and seems to have done well in the fermentation - i.e., vigorously bubbling, etc., though I have yet to check the FG. Anyway, it has been hot now so we have have had the AC on in...
