    yeast harvest from my taps

    So I relocated and tossed all my stored yeast. I need to restock and all I have is three kegged beers that are even better than I remembered after eight months. I am considering stepping up some starters with shots from my taps. I don't want to wait for the kegs to float. Anybody done it? I...

    funky smelling first pours, wet dog.

    So I'm rockin kegs now, schwing...! But my first pours smelled like a wet dog. I was worried my whole keg was screwed so I was key word searching 'wet dog' but after a few pours and a week of aging it is all good. In fact, awesomely delicious. I'm thinking it was the yeast. I'm not one to...

    quick disco question

    Okay, I spent a bunch of money to start kegging but I might have been penny wise and pound foolish. If I split my co2 line with T's for four kegs... will I have to have all four kegs hooked up to prevent leaks or are the quick disconnects air tight when not connected? I left the manifold...

    Y'all rock!

    I'm just running a simple BIAB set up with a turkey fryer and a laptop but after a couple simple SMaSH's to get my technique down, I got a nice buzz going with a fantastic third batch that tastes like what I want Fat Tire to taste like. Meanwhile I was waiting on a couple of bottles of batch...

    Which way to go from here

    I need help deciding where to go with this recipe. I'm trying to decide if I should dryhop as planned. I'm still a greenhorn and would like your input. I was going for a toasty red APA. So, I just took a gravity sample after 2 weeks and it's at 1.018. A touch high but I think I went...
