    2.5lb Co2 tank and 25' assembled beer line

    2.5lb Aluminum CO2 tank. Bought brand new from kegconnection and filled only once (currently empty). The tank was hydro'd a little less than a year ago and is still valid. I'm selling this b/c I got a 20lb tank. SOLD 25' of 3/16" beer line, assembled, *new and unused*. Includes picnic...

    My first keg/keezer disaster

    So I went to go tap my limeade today, and the picnic tap made the un-mistakable noise it makes when you've tapped your keg ... Huh? :confused: This keg was filled with 5 gallons not less than 24 hours ago.... So then I attempt to "lift" the keg up to judge it's weight and them, and then...

    Anybody use Elco Stainless Steel Cleaner?

    I was looking for Bar Keeper's Friend, but all they had at Sears was Elco SS Cleaner... Is this the a proper substitute for BKF? I'm using it to clean kegs. *I don't own this image*

    Apple Sake?

    I gave my older brother a glass of Apfelwein that had been aged for about 3 months. He, (like I, and others who are not avid hard cider drinkers) could not put a tongue around what he was tasting. The only think he could think of to describe the taste was "apple sake". Got me thinking, is...

    Which tool will cut a Deep Socket?

    What dremel cutting attachment do you use to cut into a deep socket? I have a hefty 13/16" deep socket (for my pin-lock posts), and I bought some cutting discs that only managed to take a few bites before breaking.

    Who's got the ugliest keg?

    I'm curious to see who is hoarding the *ugliest* keg (corny or sanke). Rules: 1. Must be a working keg (not scrap). 2. No intentional damage. If you've got a pic, post it up.

    Any issues with black on kegs?

    My corny kegs are all-around ugly. I'd like to paint them black with plastic-dip instead of "shining" them, which I don't already have the tools for. Will a black coating effect a corny keg in any way (bad)?

    My Stone "Ghost" bottles (labels removed)

    These bottles sat in tub of over-concentrated Starsan for a month. Results: My guess is that the starsan etched the glass around the printing, and left a shadow. Notes: 1.My Rogue bottles are somehow immune to starsan 2. Starsan sucks at removing paper labels, that is a job for oxyclean.

    I'm a bit confused about batch sparging (1st all-grain)

    Going to brew Northern Brewer's Irish Red Ale a/g kit tomorrow... I'm using 15gal+10gal kettles, and 10gal cooler MLT. I'm looking at the ProMash Recipe Report provided by NB, and I see the specifics - but I'm not 100% on the process. What I understand: Mash at 153F for 60mins (so...

    Are there any mushroom farmers out there?

    I would take a guess and say a small % of brewers also farm mushrooms as well... no? It seems to follow suit, as far as dealing with live organisms, their cultivation, and cleanliness. It's also food. For clarification, I'm referring to legal, edible mushrooms - such as button mushrooms...

    WTF: Dip Tube O-rings for Corny Kegs

    These are the small rubber o-rings found on the top of the dip tubes (gas and liquid), underneath the removed posts. I know they're cheap and sold in bulk (100 per pack), so I was wondering if anybody had leftovers they could sell me. Shipping should be as easy as an envelope in the mail...

    Carbonator for Pin-Lock connection?

    I'd like to buy a Carbonator cap, but after looking at pictures of it - it doesn't seem like it's possible. Has anyone used a Carbonator cap with pin-lock fittings?

    Can I combine MoreBeer and MoreWine shopping carts?

    I apologize if this is in the incorrect forum - wasn't sure if I should post it in the vendor's sub-forum. Basically, I want to buy beer AND wine equipment from morebeer/morewine - but they use two different websites/carts. What is their policy on this?

    (Los Angeles) F/T: 2.5lbs CO2 tank

    I have a purchased new, 2.5# co2 tank (tested, filled once) that is couple months old. I got it from kegconnection. I'm looking to trade it for a 5 or 10 pound tank, locally. I'll accept used and beat-up (but functional) tank offers, but bear in mind that my 2.5 tank is shiny and new ;)...

    Better Air Conditioning Fermentation Setup? (Pic)

    I have a 2'x2'x3' closet shelf that I'd like to turn into a fermentation chamber. I've decided that my keezer will be used for serving only. I've been looking at various "air conditioning" designs, and I'm torn between two simple ice/fan based systems: I'm just wondering which design...

    Made a Keg sugar Carbonation mistake

    Because I was short on keezer space, I decided to carbonate my corny keg with DME (at room temp). My brew is a Hefe, so I'm using 3oz. of DME for 5gal @ 75F to achieve a bit over 3 volumes. Problem is, I forgot that my buddies and I sampled 2 gals of it last night :p - and I added the DME...

    Did I get a good deal on aluminum pots?

    I picked up a few pots on CL yesterday; One aluminum 60 quart (15gal) pot, and one 40 quart (10gal) - with matching lids, for $80 total I feel like I got a decent deal, but I'm having some buyer's remorse right now. I still have to buy a decent wort chiller, and turkey fryer :o. How...
