  The line is just a regular picnic tap- i'd guess 2-3 feet?I've reduced to serving pressure of
  13psi.

  First time kegging. Force carbed at 30psi while agitating (over 24 hours ago). It's pouring
  about 75% head and has a little carbonation. I'm guessing I just need to wait for Co2 to work
  its way into s...

• Posted in thread: How do YOU keg cloudy beers? on 03-30-2012 at 02:44 PM
  About to keg for the first time- also my first all grain batch. Lots of excitement. I've read
  about various ways to keep kegged beer cloudy, without pouring out mass quantities of yeast
  slurry every t...

  does DME ferment better than LME? Perhaps LME+DME+Sugar could do the trick?I pitched 23g of
  Safale-05, and fermented around 68 (used ice bath last time- now i've got a chest freezer with
  temp control)...

  Thanks. As a side note, I have similar issues storing star San. I keep a blue Tupperware
  container full of it, but it always gets moldy on the lid and walls. I suppose I could just
  make a new batch ev...

  I use an upright freezer chest freezer with a Johnson digital temp controller for fermentation.
  This was my first batch using it, and I just opened up the freezer after a four week primary to
  discover...

• Posted in thread: Wyeast 3056- fermenting slowly on 06-18-2011 at 03:43 PM
  The yeast was Mfg in May- so only a month old (brewed on 6/6). I let it swell for about 36
  hours- my only concern is that it was delivered to my apartment managers' office and then left
  their overnigh...

  I made a bavarian hefe kit from northern brewer, using a smack pack of Wyeast 3056.I had heard
  from lots of people on this forum that this yeast was a beast at fermentation, but mine's been
  rather slu...

  This is my first fermentation using anything other than an ice bath. Definitely getting a
  thermowell for the next brew. I've always heard it preached around here that stability was
  super important in ...
