Simple as?: cleaning and sanitizing keg adding water putting on CO2 around 20psi for 35F Would like to have some on tap as the wife loves flavored sparkling water.

I'm going to be brewing the recipe found here, should I get the steeping grains crushed or not at my LHBS? Thanks in advance :mug:

Anyone have a source for a replacement seal for a chest freezer. Looking for a universal stick on type.

I saw a post once where the guy attached his regs to the underside of the lid, I think using drywall anchors, but now I can't seem to find it. Any thoughts?

Let me know.

I finally got around to brewing my second batch yesterday. It was a West Coast Imperial IPA. The wife is due in mid August, so this was her pick as she is an IPA lover! See my first brew here. Everything went very smoothly, no problems at all with the brew-day. I had a late LME addition...

I am wondering if it's possible to put a sankey coupler on the same gas and beer line as one of my ball lock QD's? That way if I want to get a 1/6th of something I can just throw it in the Keezer without having to take things apart. Thanks in advance

I haven't done much with brewing lately other than drink what I brewed back in Jan. The reason for that is that I am storing my first keg of beer in my fermentation chamber because I didn't have anywhere else to keep it cold. As my fermentation chamber is occupied, I can't brew again! That...

I have heard about raising the temp as fermentation progresses to allow the yeast to "clean up", but I'm not sure how to go about this. I brewed my first beer, NB Caribou Slobber 31Jan2015 with a SG of 1.043. I pitched RVA Yeast labs RVA103 "Pacman" at 69F. The temp range for this yeast is...

Ball-locks need to be cheaper than $65 and tank needs to be cheaper than $60

Tested the fermentation chamber last night and she held temp perfectly! I'm starting to get very excited about Saturday brew day! Picked up my 7gal of distilled water last night and will be picking up my yeast starter tonight from the LHBS. I'm planning on using a vial of RVA Yestlabs, haven't...

Will be building this with 50' 3/8" OD. Might do it at 40' and do an inline chiller as well. And.....GO!

First kettle buy, will be ordering today to save on shipping from NB with their kit sale. Plan on doing 5gal extract batches. 8 or 10 gal kettle? MegaPot or Tall Boy? Seems that they are the same kettle, with rubber grips on the MegaPot. Don't plan on getting a ball valve or thermometer...

Looking to build a 50' dual coil immersion chiller. 3/8 or 1/2 would be better? I'm thinking 1/2.

Looking to build an immersion chiller. 50' copper 3/8 ID. I want to put fittings on it to hook both ends up to garden hoses with out soldering, what parts do I need? Can't seem to find what I'm looking for when I go to Home Depot. What is the difference in the different types of copper...

6 Gal and 5 gal Local pickup only, Richmond, Va

Shoot me a PM

Just picked up my chest freezer to convert into my fermentation chamber. Will document the build here. First thing is that the deep portion isn't wide enough to accept a carboy, so will be building a collar. Just need to figure out how tall I need to make it.

Ok so the chest freezer I'm using for my fermentation chamber doesn't have enough width in the bottom to accommodate the diameter of the carboy. So I will have to place it on the compressor hump. This means I will have to raise the lid like a keezer. My question is that I want to build...

Is there a model mini fridge that will hold a 6.5 gal carboy?
