I just wanted to post some pictures and thoughts for anyone who is interested in adding the chalkboard effect to a keezer lid. I realize there are some threads out there on this, but just wanted to add my $.02. When I was at Home Depot, I was looking for Bondo to fill the textured surface of...

On Friday we went to the American Homebrewer's Association rally at Allagash Brewing in Portland, Maine. After letting us have some of their delicious beer, giving us a tour of the brewery and showing us their barrel room, they gave us some tastes of some rarities. The one that sparked my...

Hey guys, taking my first shot at recipe formulation from the ground up. I want to make a light, but substantive summer beer. Here's what I have so far: 60% Pilsner Malt 20% Rye Malt 20% Wheat Malt I will probably use Cascade as the bittering hop, some Amarillo at flameout and to dry...

Hey guys, I was looking for some help with a kettle dip tube. I just installed one of the weldless bulkheads from weldlessfittings.com. I installed it as low as I could, but i feel like there is going to be a decent amount of loss. Normally I wouldn't care about the loss as much, but I am...

Hello. I recently decided to upgrade my brew kettle. I ordered the 10 gallon megapot from Austin Homebrew on Sunday, and asked them to drill the two holes for a ball valve and a thermometer (I got the weldless kits for Xmas). The price wasn't bad, around $145. I really want to brew my...

Hey guys, I have been brewing extract + grians or about a year, and am making the leap into AG. My question is about my process for the first time, I just wanted to make sure this sounds correct after reading lots of threads and listening to podcasts. I am converting the 10 gallon Igloo for...

Hey guys, I'm going out to Steamboat Springs, CO later this week, wanted to know if there was any beer/breweries worth trying out in the area?

Hey guys, just thought I would put up some pics of my fermentation chamber I just built, just to have another one out there in case it helps anyone with ideas or another way to skin a cat. I used a scavenged dorm fridge to cool the thing. In the summer it is holding 65 like a champ for ales...

I have a frustrating problem that I am hoping someone might be able to shed some light on. Almost every beer I have made ends up tasting sweet/malty when it comes out of my taps on my keezer. The thing is, most are in the 1.008-1.010 FG area, so I know it's not the FG. And when I take a...

I just recently filled a keg with an imperial wit that had been fermenting for two and a half months. I went away for a week, when I came back, about half of the keg was in the bottom of the keezer. It was my favorite of the four beers I have on tap, so obviously I wasn't happy. I tested...

Hello guys, I'm a new member here. I am building a keezer and just had a couple of quick questions. I crawled through the equipment discussions and found answers to almost everything, just had a couple I couldn't find. 1. I got the 4 way manifold from kegconnection.com (Air Distributer - 4...
