    Hoff Stevens Keezer Tap

    Ok HBT. I've googled the snot out of this with no luck. I've also been to ACE Hardware and they don't have anything to help. The situation: I've inherited an old Hoff Stevens Hand pump/tap tower. I'm looking to secure it to the top of my Keezer for a single tap tower. The size of the...

    Pott's Landbier

    I have a friend whose parents are from Germany who are coming to visit for 7 weeks. Her father is reportedly a big fan of Pott's Landbier. I haven't been able to find a recipe. The website, from what I can read, says the beer has Pilsner Malt, Munich Malt, Caramunich, and Roast malt(?)...

    CO2 regulator help

    I recently got a co2 tank and regulator off of CL. The regulator is this: http://www.hydrofarm.com/pb_detail.php?itemid=7106# I do not see anywhere to adjust the psi output from the regulator. The only adjustment I can find is adjusting the cubic feet output from 0-2CF per hour. Does...

    Old CO2 tank

    Hey all. I've found a post on CL for an old 20# co2 tank and single regulator (0-60 PSI) for $50. The downside is this guy has no clue what the test date is. This was used for hydroponics I think. My gut says to snatch this up, but I'm wondering what difficulties I'll run into when this tank...

    Dodge navigation unit problems

    I have a 2006 Dodge Ram 1500 with the stock navigation unit that takes a DVD. The navigation unit started giving us problems that the disc could not be read. I took it to the dealership and they said the disc went bad. Now I don't know too much about navigation systems, but I do know that a...

    Damn water

    So, one batch quite a while ago was really nasty. It kind of had a metal off flavor to it. I just attributed it to old stale extract. The current batch I'm drinking has a very similar flavor, but not quite as bad. I knew the extract was ok since I tasted it and it was nice and sweet...

    So yes, this is another my first all grain post. Forgive me. :P First #1: Who knew the threads on the threaded stainless nipple on a bargainfittngs.com weldless valve was so sharp? I didn't. While trying to get a good seal I got numerous small cuts on my hands and fingers. It took me a...

    How 'bout them Beavers!!

    What a great game last night! Oregon State was a 25 point underdog and came out and had their way with USC. I couldn't believe Jaquizz Rodgers squeezing through those holes and making guys miss. I thoroughly enjoyed watching OSU come out and beat USC for the second time in 3 years. I only...

    Little foam in first brew

    I just finished my first attempt at brewing a few hours ago and was wondering if what I noticed was normal. First this brew is an Irish Red Ale. What I noticed was after I added the LME and before the wort came to a boil there was a little formation of foam. A few minutes (~3 min)...

    Hi from Tucson

    Hi all. I'm a noob brewer myself. I ordered a kit online yesterday and can't wait for it to be delivered. :D So far I've found this site extremely helpful. I was going to go the Mr. Beer route but decided against it after reading a lot of the posts here. Anyway, can't wait to get...
