Process of elimination. Pressurize the keg. Disconnect the gas and beer lines. If keg holds pressure it's not the keg. If it doesn't it's probably just the keg but I would check the rest of the system just in case. At the same time you're testing the keg you can test the entire system. With...

Has anyone tried distilling with the Brew-Boss? I thought at one point they were coming out with a seal and clamp for the lid so you could distill with it. I have seen a lot of the other electric systems have distilling lids. Has anyone come up with something here?

Thanks I'm in.... USA!!!

I've lifted it with the handle, sparged then set it on a board across the pot then connected it to the ring then squeezed.

Squeezing pretty hard. Yes I turn off the recirc when stirring.

I've been opening it and stirring the hard way, next time I'm going to try using a bent coat hanger or copper wire to open and close the latches. Stirring seems to have improved my efficiency. Needed more for larger grain bills.

Ok

I used a jig saw with a metal blade, hardly any dust outside of the keg. Most of it fell into the keg. Use a drill to make a hole bigger than the blade inside the cut out. I used the rim as a guide for the jig saw.

I'm in. Thanks

Usually if you have granules left either you didn't mix it enough or there wasn't enough water.

Yes I had the same thing Thursday when I brewed. I also noticed when I went to recall a recipe and tapped on it, it wouldn't display in the top line I just hit ok and it opened. There wasn't an option for manual or automatic. When in automatic mode is there a way to back up a step or add a step...

It's surprising what you can turn into a tap handle.

I'm In!
