    Beer Bottle Cap/Seal/Lid?

    I'm looking for a seal/cap for a standard beer bottle mouth(not twist off type) that will prevent any C02 from escaping. I want something that's sort of a slip on type cap rather than an actual crown cap. I am familiar with the plunger style where you pull the lever down and the sides of the...

    Water Profile/Chemistry - Raleigh, NC - HELP!

    Hi Everyone, I've been AG brewing for about 2 years but have never locked down my knowledge about water chemistry so for that reason i've never dabbled in adding salts/chalk/minerals to my beer. Right now, I ONLY use an inline charcoal filter but that's it for my water treatment. Raleigh...

    Is is possible to melt a hole in a kettle?

    This might be a really dumb question and i'm starting to think it is based on the lack of information when googling but I just purchased 3 badass 15 gallon SS kettles and they are beautiful. I also am working on my single tier system with 12 or 15 tip jet burners. There are no guides on how...

    BTU/Burner Size for 5-10 Gallon Batches?

    I just finished building my brewstand based on the Brutus 10 and now looking to buy burners to start on the next phase of the build. If I am going by the Brutus plans, the burners that are most similar are from morebeer here. I also see a cheaper version here but not really sure of the quality...

    Newb to Kegging?

    I kegged for the first time about 5 days ago and did my own version of carbonation which was about 15psi for the first 3-4 days at 50 degrees and the last two days at around 9psi at serving temp. When I dispensed my first beer the pressure in my tank seemed to drop dramatically. My setup...

    First All-Grain Recipe ?'s

    This past weekend I brewed my first all-grain batch. The recipe was called "St. James Dry Stout". Everything went pretty smoothly with the exception of a few things. I believe I mashed and sparged a bit too hot as I didn't realize how well my new mashtun(igloo 10 gallon) and HLT(5 gallon...

    New Kettle Defects

    I received my new 10 gallon SS kettle in the mail today. The shipping sucked of course and my pot was scratched, lid had a small dent, and the handles were hanging out of the box but none of those concern me that badly. What does concern me is the worn away spot on the inside bottom edge of the...
