Time to brew a nice strong beer that will have a lasting mouth feel, an ABV around 8.5-9.5%, and an upfront banana character. I came across this recipe and wanted to try it out, but tweak a few things first. I look forward to your feedback before giving possible things I am thinking about...

Hello all. The purpose of this thread is to get input on taking a smoked porter recipe, adding more grain (to relax the smoky taste and increase the mouth feel and abv) and changing the yeast. I am going to list the original recipe and then what I wanted to change. I value your input...

Anybody have the morebeer heated/cooled conical that wants to comment how it is? Also, anybody with the ultimate version? Is the ultimate version the better choice or is it the un-needed choice? The conical will always be inside the house so extreme hot/cold isn't an issue. Also I am...

Hello all, It appears that since the carbonator cap became popular, they doubled the price since it came out (might have even tripled). Is there any alternative? I saw a "make your own" with a bike valve but is there anything that can be built/bought that will go directly onto the keg tube?

Anybody local to central New Jersey selling any kegging equipment (in good shape) and/or a conical (15gal or less)? Please PM me.

Besides the extremely nice metal conical's, compared to the plastic, is there a reason to go metal over durability? What are your thoughts? I am currently using carboys but being able to remove yeast, take samples, remove final product easier, etc, makes it a nobrainer that the conical is the...
