    My first keezer - Cost and build steps.

    @Ragman Great build! Not saying you have to, but this is what I did. You have room to fit another corny on the hump if your collar is tall enough and run your co2 line out the collar and have the bottle on the outside.

    Brewer's Edge Mash and Boil

    @Beenym88 I have started using 5 gallon paint strainer bags in the mash tube. I use alligator clips to help hold it on. Drains really pretty fast, and then I just do a warm water dump sparge once most 1st runnings have drained off. I finish squeezing the grain out using a stockpot lid to push...

    Cheapo Homemade Tap Handles

    These definitely are not professionally done, but cheap enough you could make a lot of them for the price of one. I plan to put chalkboard on the side of them also. It’s just 2x2 pine I stained them with stuff we had laying around and printed the labels on copy paper and Mod Podge them on...

    What is this hose barb connection

    A friend sold me his brewing/kegging stuff a few years back and I had never really gone through everything. I came across this 3ish ft section of hose with this on the end. Looks like a hose barb that goes on the end of a shank, maybe? What kind of clamp is on this also? Pretty short section of...

    What Kind of Yeast Pitcher Are You?

    May have been asked before. Just wondering how everyone does their yeast? And what has worked best for everyone. Sorry if I missed an option in the poll. If you do multiple, choose all that you do/have done.

    Do you treat water and check pH?

    I might be the person you are looking for. I don't do anything, and don't really plan to. I have never added salts or ever taken a pH reading (would need a meter for that). I'm very satisfied with the beers I make. They could probably be improved, but that is an effort I'm not willing to make at...

    Lol! Those are the positives I’m talking about!

    Damn IT!! It is a UK to US Adapter! Got screwed out of $4 but had some fun along the way! I will be submitting negative feedback. It was totally worth a try! Now I can purchase an actual one. Any good low cost recommendations to add a secondary to my dual primary one?

    I will have a really good laugh also when it is not a regulator, but worth a try!

    Package is at my local post office and hopefully will be out for delivery on Monday! Can’t wait to use my brand new high powered regulator with charging plug in! Lol!

    My apologies, didn't mean to offend, and after I re-read it, it is super racist. Not what I meant at all. Thank you @IslandLizard for changing it!

    On US soil! Getting closer! Can’t think it would take too long to make it here, but then again sometimes I think the mail person is using it for a few days before bringing it to me!

    @IslandLizard - Thanks! I forgot washers or rubber bands when I made the poll.

    Hey, could be worse! Not sure how, butt...

    Not sure what I just ordered?

    As requested I have add a poll for voting what I will receive, even if it is not much at least we can have fun with it! :tank:

    That sure would be a bummer. I could definitively say it was a bust of a purchase at least ;)

    Well, whatever it is shipped out yesterday! Now all I have to do is wait a month and we’ll figure it out! :)
