Looking for two perlick faucet locks. New or Like New. Looking for a good buy not retail price. Thanks

I have been kegging for about a year or so. I have had this issue a few times in that year and I was hoping to get some help with it. I set my regulator in my kegerator at 12psi and don't mess with it. Every once in a while I will pour a beer and have a lot of head. When I pull kegs out to...

I usually steep in my 10gal pot, but read about only doing 3L per lb of speciality. So I bought a small 8L pot and was trying to do it stove top. Stupid electric range and busy doing other things my water temp got to 174 for a short period (2-4min). Am I hosed now.

So reading over the Sept. Issue of BYO in the Trouble Shooting article there is a chart. Under the astringency category for extract is says this can be caused by steeping grains in to much water (over 3 quarts water per pound grain). I do full boils, around 6.5gal to start with. Therefore if...

I have been brewing for about a year now and have ~10 5gallon extract batches under my belt. My question is should I be using a cleaner like PBW before each batch. I make sure to hit everything liberally with starsan, but haven't ever had a real dirty issue that would require PBW. After each...

I had been having issues with my beer seeming to sweet in my opinion. I spoke to a local craft brewer and he asked how I was adding my hops. I had been using muslin bags and only simmer boiling. He suggested I add the hops straight to the batch not in a bag and get a good boil going. So I...

I am new to brewing, and now have 9 batches under my belt. 4 of kegged a few weeks ago. I have noticed that each batch has seen a little sweet. In prepping for a party tomorrow night I tapped and tried these 4 kegs and like the others unless I am dry hopping they seem to be sweet to me. I am...

I have a few batches under my belt and they all seem to be a little on the sweet side. I hit all my gravities and everything else seems to be correct. I was talking to a local craft brewer and he asked how I was adding my hops. I had been using muslin bags and doing a full boil. He suggested...

I brewed a Founders Dirty Bastard Clone on 2/5/12 and I was going to transfer it to keg today. However, when I opened the pail the Krausen is still present. I tried to do a quick search and find whether I should transfer or let it sit a few more days. Couldn't find a good answer. Most...

I recently brewed a Founders Dirty Bastard extract clone that I found on HBT. In the thread no gravities were listed. My OG = 1.067 which I thought was a little low but had already cooled and transfered. I pitched one packet of Safale US-05. I checked the gravity today (2/14, 9 days later)...

I recently brewed a hobgoblin clone 2/5/2012. I pitched the dry yeast straight to the wart. It took off at 24 hrs and bubbled at a good rate for 48 hrs. Then it all but quit. At day 5 the airlock was sitting with no CO2 in it. I was concern I needed to repitch so I opened my ale pale and...

I am looking for a Black Imperial Pale Ale extract recipe. If anyone has one they have tried and felt it was a good result let me know. I would like to make that my next brew. Thanks

I recently purchased 10 ball locks kegs from a guy on craigslist. Today I checked to see if they all held pressure and lucky for me 9 on them did. 1 however has a slow leak from the relief valve. The Keg has Crouch Carbonic Co, Dayton Ohio on it. I was wondering can I get a replacement valve...

I am on my fifth batch and brewed BB Imperial Pale Ale extract kit on 1/7/12. It started off great and was bubbling like crazy for the first week plus. I had planned to wait three weeks before I transferred to keg. It had slowed down but still bubbling every minute as of yesterday. This...

I am in need of a gas manifold to use to carbonate multiple kegs at a time. I am looking for a cheap alternative to the $30 for a two way manifold that the homebrew places sell. I was looking on ebay and they have these small manifolds for aquarium use. Has anyone tried these. Love to hear...

I have a Founders Dirty Bastard Clone Receipe that I was wanting to make. It calls for 9.5lbs of Munton's Light malt Extract. I am planning on ordering my components from Austin Homebrew and they do not offer a light liquid extract. Do I need to go with just the extra pale or try to mix the...

I recently borrowed some cornies from my brother. One of which he ran rootbeer through and never cleaned. I cleaned and sanatized when I got it and put it off to the side foe later use. I went to rack to that keg this morning and the rootbeer smell was still there. Luckly I had another keg I...
