Count me in.

If I win, I could put that stupid brush away!

Thanks for all the info folks, seems like the concensus is hole in top. one of the reasons i was thinking about cutting on the side was overall height. Where i plan on setting this up,head room above the keg will be limited. So I'm not yet abandoning the side cut, but I think the safest way is...

I was wondering if there is any advantage to cutting the hole in top of the keg as opposed to cutting the whole top off from the side? You would have to locate a bigger lid, and the cutting would take a little longer, but those don't seem to be big enough issues to me? Does it possibly have...

Thanks everyone for the feedback. It was in the fermenter for 3 weeks before I dumped it in the bottling bucket the first time. Also, BemoreBrew, I should have said high SG, not low Sg. Mike

About 5 months ago, I brewed a pale ale. Things seemed to be going well. Fermentation was ok, not great and was similar to my first brew. So I made my first mistake by putting it in my bottle bucket before I checked the SG. The SG was very low, and when I tasted it I could taste the...

Great thread Steve, Took me two weeks of lunches to get through it properly. I have limited space where I plan to brew and I will use your work(and others you linked to) as a guide. Thanks for all the effort in putting this together! Mike

This is a beautiful thing. I live just down the road in Jackson, so I hope to be able to see it in action sometime.
