    G-mix (Nitrogen) absorb quicker then CO2?

    I do, I will give that a whirl, problem is I have no gas left, so need to get it refilled.

    G-mix (Nitrogen) absorb quicker then CO2?

    Yeah, that stinks but it is what it is, I appreciate the replies. I will find out if the place I go to fill it can run a test like this. Thanks guys.

    G-mix (Nitrogen) absorb quicker then CO2?

    Hey everyone, so I put my stout/porter setup to good use recently which also included a 5 lb tank for G-mix (75% nitrogen, 25% CO2). I carbed the stout with my 10 lb CO2 tank for a week, all good there. Hooked up my 5 lb nitro tank to the 5 gallon keg and the beer came out awesome, very happy...

    Gmix psi

    Interesting thanks for the info.

    Gmix psi

    Just tapped my stout keg last night after carbing with straight CO2 for a week at 12 psi. Hooked my gmix tank and it was awesome. Running at 20 psi on gmix, is that too much too little? Good amount of head comes out initially but no problem after that.

    Filling tank with beer gas

    Just about to pull the trigger on a nitro setup to add to my existing keezer. Anyone know where in the NYC area I can fill the tank with beer gas (g-mix)? I called the local place I have my 10 lb CO2 tank filled and they only fill 20 lb tanks with g-mix. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

    Soda making for cub scouts

    Hey everyone, my son is in the cub scouts. I have been an extract brewer since this past August, absolutely love the hobby and the beer that I brew, hopefully graduate to all grain next year. In any event, I was thinking of something "cool" I could do with the troop. Obviously we can't make...

    Need help, losing carb

    Really, wow, that is good stuff, definitely going this route.

    Need help, losing carb

    Good stuff guys, I have a perlick adapter and tubing, so all good there. Makes sense, more head space equals more opportunity to lose carb. Thanks!

    Need help, losing carb

    Hey everyone, so I went to my monthly homebrew club meeting tonight. As usual we bring our own homebrews to share, which is always great. I just got into kegging which is glorious. I filled a growler half way and was stoked to share with my fellow home brewers since I thought this was the best...

    Wow, water really does make a difference

    For sure, I initially was going to try to use the tap water and add chlorine tabs, to remove the chlorine, but still it would be tricky. Worth it to just buy filtered water. This was also my first use of irish moss, really cleared out the beer nicely.

    Wow, water really does make a difference

    Hey everyone, so I started brewing this past August, 6 extract brews under my belt. The last two brews (both IPAs) I brewed using Poland Spring. My water sucks, thought I would spend $7.50 on (3) 2.5 gallon jugs. Let me tell you it was beyond worth it. Just tapped the keg for one of the IPAs...

    Keezer collar attachment

    I used gravity and weather stripping, it does the trick, my collar must weight close to 30 lbs. IMO, no need to glue it to the chest freezer.

    Keezer Build Video

    Thanks, regarding adhesive for the collar, I didn't use anything. The weight of the combined inner and outer collar is a good amount. I used weather stripping on the inner collar and locked in the overal collar with 2 pieces of wood in the back. It isn't going anywhere, all together it most...

    Keezer Build Video

    It is, cuts down on how many times the freezer goes on. Although I was thinking of hooking it to the temp controller, still up in the air.

    mounting fans in keezer

    I built a mount out of wood, the fan fit within a dryer vent mount, connected that to dryer tubing to vent the air down. Works very well.

    Best way to fill bottles from keg

    Great, thanks for the info.

    Best way to fill bottles from keg

    Hey everyone, what is the best way to fill bottles with caps from a keg and keep the carb? I saw a beer gun from Blichmann, granted seems a tad bit pricey. Thanks.
