    Mostly C02 in my beer line

    If that was the case when I switched the beer lines over the problem would follow the beer line and not stay with the keg though yeah? Same with the gass. The problem is only with one keg. Sorry I guess I explained all that kinda badly before. I have two kegs, Keg A and Keg B...

    Mostly C02 in my beer line

    Thanks to the others that mentioned that too! ( is there a "karma" rating or something on this forum? Or do I just like the posts to show thanks??) Looks like that was the problem!! I gave everything a clean and resembled and everything looks great. Right now things are only half...

    Mostly C02 in my beer line

    Now that is a genius idea haha (purging). I actually used to service Scuba regs. But I dont have too many tools at my disposal right now. I should track some stuff though and break them open and stop being lazy! haha Yeah the kegs were second hand. I did replace the o'rings but im sure...

    Mostly C02 in my beer line

    Yes and no. No I carb with the set and forget method. But my regulator is a little glitchy. It will often creep or drop by 5psi. I guess I need to buy another . . . sigh! Yeah, will check! Thanks!! I ran out of gas right before the xmas break so I have been HB less all xmas!!! I...

    Mostly C02 in my beer line

    Good point, I had swapped them around a bunch recently to trouble shoot another problem. So kinda had it in my mind that I had done so for this problem. Will try that tonight and see what the deal is! But yeah it has to be right? Or can THAT MUCH c02 be coming out of solution...

    Mostly C02 in my beer line

    Hi all, So I cant get my head around this!! I am getting a HUGE amount of what I assume must be CO2 in my beer line (as I dont see any beer where it shouldn't be!) Its got to the point that if I leave it for a day or two there is more gass than beer. If I manage to actually...

    Here we go again! Rex SRC100

    Ok cool thanks man, I think I may go manual PWM for now, then perhaps add a cheap PID for auto later if I dig electric. appreciate the help!!!!

    Here we go again! Rex SRC100

    Ok cool, Sorry I should have clarified what I was thinking. I am trying to set up a basic EBIAB set up that I can then expand into a 2 vessel brew system (kinda like the brew easy I guess) later. So it would work well for the strike heat, and the mash part of this but will let me down...

    Here we go again! Rex SRC100

    Ok thanks man, As in you can not set a manual % power? Does this make it redundant for a boil kettle ?

    Here we go again! Rex SRC100

    Yep thats it, Just surprised me I didn't realise that there was a version like that. At that price I guess its worth a crack. If you are familiar with that model are there any specific downsides to it that I am missing?

    Here we go again! Rex SRC100

    Hows it team, So I know that in the past these have used a straight up relay and not a SSR output. . . . . . . . So what is the deal with this?? Scroll down, it has "SSR" printed as output?!?!?! Is this just straight up porkies? Or has something changed?

    What have I created?

    Cooked caps

    Cooked caps

    For the most part yes, would say the temp of the bottle as a whole raised about 5c in total. But the caps would have been at about 50c. Sent from my iPad using Home Brew

    Cooked caps

    So this isn't a freak out, it's a geek out. A exercise in mental exploration haha. I decided that the bottles I had conditioning were too cold (11c) but the fermenting fridge was full. Aka being impatient. Came up with a plan to put a fan heater on supper low and face it down into the crate...

    What have I created?

    Cheers team had thought of the English brown. Hadn't thought of the dark mild though! Guess il be patient and let it carb up, then give it another tasting :) Sent from my iPad using Home Brew

    What have I created?

    So I brewed a fairly standard AG best bitter. But for some strange reason decided to throw in a touch of roasted barely. I just tried it for the first time tonight, although it wasn't really carbonated i think I have a good grasp on what it's going to taste like. Question is what category...

    New Zealand Brewers

    I'm hitting between 70-77%. But I'm not too sure yet weather that is accurate. I just switched to new software, and it dosnt allow me to change the water absorption of the grain, so I'm having to change things on the fly a little. Sent from my iPad using Home Brew

    Funny things you've overheard about beer

    This afternoon my work mate was offered a beer, he politely declined stating that he was on a no sugar diet. The offerer then tried to work out if we had a filter fine enough to remove the sugar from said beer for him. ......she decided that the coffee filters were likely not fine enough...
