    My first 5 gal brew

    lol, you wouldnt be saying that if you would have tasted the two gallon batch I made with that used MR Beer kit. I still dont have a clue why it was so nasty but it almost stopped me from brewing again. It had a decent taste up front but an after taste that made you want to cut off your tongue...

    CO2 issues

    I finally found a place that I can get co2 from. It's right outside of camp George in Dague. If you are heading toward the gate for camp George there is a little market store on your right hand side named the olive. Right before the olive there is a ally you turn right into and the gas store is...

    My first 5 gal brew

    Just an update on my first batch. The bubble trap stopped bubbling I took a gravity reading which came out to 1.012 the estimated range on the instructions for FG is 1.010-1.014. So I'm excited I covered it back up and will probably rack it to the keg tomorrow if I get the same reading. My...

    CO2 issues

    Thanks for all the idea... I left out a really big part of my problem. I'm currently stationed in south Korea. The next thing I will be looking for is a welding supplies shop. Wish me luck.

    CO2 issues

    I just spent half a day driving around looking for a place to fill up my CO2 tank with no luck. I tried gas stations, hobbie shops, fire departments, I even stopped by a bar to see if they used somewhere local. The language barrier is very difficult to overcome and I'm a little frustrated about...

    My first 5 gal brew

    I bought the Master Brewers Kit with Kegging Setup from Midwest supplies. I have brewed using a used mr beer kit which was given to me once before but that didn't turn out so well. This time I thought I would give it a try using a better unused kit. I would like to eventually go to full grain...

    Midwest Supplies

    I'm not too worried about the broken bottles at this point. I just sent the pictures to the representative who responded to me. I will keep a look out for a reply with the plan of action. Thank you for your continued custom support Midwest supplies.

I contacted midwest and just like expected the representative was very quick to respond on how to go about this. I am about to send pictures of the broken glass and order...

    My first 5 gal brew

    I completed my first 5 gal brew. I got off work a little late and wasn't going to bed without brewing on Wednesday so I started late and ended early... the next morning. I think everything went ok but I am very new at this, here are some pictures. Notice my home made thermometer holder... My...

    Midwest Supplies

    I just wanted to comment about the customer service iv been experiencing from Midwest supplies. I am in the military and stationed out side of the U.S. so buying and shipping things off line has proven difficult at times. So when I ordered my keg starter kit from Midwest I followed it up with an...

    Hi my name is Stephen Beltz and I am in the U.S. army currently stationed in Korea. I have tried brewing once using parts of a Mr. Beer kit and it turned out bad... really bad. I don’t know why but the more I look into it I realize that I made several mistakes. My first and biggest was using an...
