I have a lager thats ready to go but I'm having some problems with my pour. The keg is properly pressurized to dispense the golden goodness but its only a trickle. I think there may be something in the corny dip stick. My question is, can I connect the CO2 to the out post to clear out whatever...

So I've been playing around with the idea of making a Imperial Stout for some time and 2 weeks ago I decided to take the plunge. I had a kit stout in the my primary so I figured it would be a good time since I wouldn't have to worry about making a starter or any of that jazz. Its a 5 gallon...

So I brewed my first beer of the season last night after a 4 year hiatus. It's an IPA with a whole heap of hop pellets, 2.5 oz of amarillo and 4 oz of cascade to be exact. I'm expecting the trub to be a bit heavy. The OG was 1.072 and I used a Wyeast London Ale 1028 smack pak. It's in the...
