    Gelatin hardened

    I was about to use gelatin for the first time. I read onhere to dump the pack in warm water and let sit for 10 min. Then get it to 170* then cool it and dump it in the ber. I cooled it and it turned really thick. Like soft serve ice cream. Is that correct? Or did I do something wrong.

    Modify guiness handle

    So I got a new three tap tower and a good deal on a guiness faucet. Only problem is, I want a much smaller tap handle. Has anyone ever modified one? It feels like it's not something I can cut. It feels ceramic like the tower. Ideas?

    Home made tower

    So I am in the process of planning my next keezer. I have some ideas about using something interesting for my tower. My family owns a propane company. I think it might be funny to use a propane tank. Has anyone made a tower out of something interesting? Let's see some pictures.
