So I built this last night using 3/18 then 1/2 as he states in the video can be used, once I put the cap on the bottle I can still squeeze out air. Is there a leak I read that it wont seal until you put pressure on it is that true? Also How does the guy keep a hold of the cap while drilling...

What size are you guys using there. I got all the parts but the hose clamp I got at lowes was a 2pack 1/4 - 5/8 it seems to big but its the smallest they have. Do you guys use something else? What size?

Not sure how Id get a regulator with my setup I am proposing, remember Im using a soda stream type machine. I assume as long as I feel the bottle for rigidity I should be good (I hope). If you have an idea how i could set up a regulator then I am open to it

Hello everyone, I have a few soda stream bottles and as they were designed to hold pressure and have a decent surface area I am considering making some sort of mini kegerator using the paintball style cos canisters you get with them. Anyone have any thoughts on this. Most of my thoughts is...

Thanks Guys, I like the Oktoberfest Idea, I dont know why my mind didn't automatically jump to it! I love Sam Adams Oktoberfest, wonder if I could make a better brew than that. I will keep thinking about all of these, the beer is for teh wedding , and the mead or wine is for us to keep around...

No idea on the number of guests but I do know a majority of them wil be from the latin culture (nicaragua). I am sure a select few (30 at most would appreciate a craft beer. Would be awesome to brew up something in the wine or mead that gets better with age and keep a bottle for every major...

Hey guys, I have been gone for a while, But I got engaged this past weekend! We are having a weeding in about a year anyone got some suggestions I could brew up and let ferment for 6 months or more. I would love to add pumpkin into the mix if possible (hmm pumpkin mead?). Thanks!

How is this working out for you now? I see the 25 bottle version available for $44. I am considering it, is there no hump, or do the 2 3gal kegs just fit comfortably in there? How well does it hold temp? you still do just 3gallons? dit, I see its a "snug" fit with just 1 keg and co2, you think...

Bump

Mainly the issue is with storage space and quickness of the boil.. i also drink much less nowadays so the storage of not only the pot but the 50+ beers would be an issue. Edit: Also forgot to mention, I do have the equipment for 5 gal brews 2 carboys and a ale pale as well as a SS brew pot (I...

would it be anything to worry about doing a 1 gallon boil for a 2.5 gallon batch of beer? also considering just buying 5 galllon kit and making in 2 seperate batches what would be an issue here hops hard to measure just reuse the yeast? any place that sells 2.5 gal kits?

Thank you, any idea why they removed it?
