    Not sure about a direct adapter, but you could definitely go gh/barb short piece of hose barb/npt

    Noob ringwood issues

    Just sounds like a slow start to me. Probably not a well aerated wort so there will be significantly lag time. I'd expect you to see normal activity in the next day or so.... Could also just be a super slow fermentation- I've had repitches (at proper rates and we'll aerated) take two weeks to...

    The Misfits Of Brewing Science

    I hope to make it out even though I don't have any hops on order though i'm not inclined to think it will happen. I may well be closing on my first house on the 27th and if that's the case, i'll have family down helping move me out of the apartment.... That said, once i've gotten moved in...

    Easy and Cheap Water Filtration System

    While i always applaud a good effort at justifying something with math, you've missed the boat here I think. Heres why: you would never filter ALL the water in a household. Most of that water consumption is through showers, toilets, dishwashers, and laundry. In truth, i suspect most families...

    Talk me down!

    Sure, there are definite things that vary from the analogy to homebrewing. And, if you've got the disposable income to risk your batches, then more power to you! I simply couldn't afford to brew as often as you're indicating-- if you can, then you're spot on- you absolutely will get more...

    I wrote a free eBook on BIAB, check it out

    Just read / skimmed the book. I'm not concerned with the file size as there are tons of pictures. Gives a good overview, but i feel that it makes some dangerous statements as well. I also think there are a few images which don't necessarily add to the book, or might add more were they to be...

    Talk me down!

    Okay, so i'm going to be "That guy" i suppose.... Why were you brewing 3 times in a week, on drastically different recipes, WHEN STARTING? It simply doesn't make any logical sense. For me, when starting (and still, because i'm still a new brewer with less than 10 batches under my belt and a...

    Drilling holes in bucket lid

    measure the ID of your grommet, add 1/8" and you should be REALLY close to what you need.

    Should i scrap it or sell it

    I agree with keeping it but if you're set on it leaving your home, i'd definitely sell it to a homebrewer. Keep in mind- while copper's price is definitely up, you won't get what it lists at if you sell it for scrap. Second, by selling it to a homebrewer at a good price, you make their day and...

    Refrigerating beer before bottling for more clarity?

    Also of note, it seems the colder you get (without freezing of course) the better, as it 1) Settles stuff out faster and 2) seems to make the yeast cake / trub pack / bind to itself... seems a little harder to disturb with your racking cane which means it's easier to get the most wort without...

    keg's leak...not the lid.

    So i've got a few kegs and it looks like the keg itself has become misshapen around the lid. I'm going to try oversized / softer o-rings to help seal them, but if that doesn't work- what are my options for repairing these corny kegs? The gap around the lid is very uneven and the leak...

    Ever see a grown home-brewer cry?

    that stinks man, i really do hate it for you. sounds like more reasons to either space your taps quite a bit apart, or use very small tap handles that you aren't likely to bump.
