    About to start a keezer build...

    About to begin a Keezer build. I have most of the kegging supplies. The only thing left to do is actually buy a freezer. I am torn between 4 models. I'm looking to build a cabinet around the freezer with a coffin on top so I need a freezer that has a good amount of room without a collar. I got...

    Any bloggers out there?

    About to inherit a beat up ugly kegerator

    Someone is giving me a kegerator for free. It gets nice and cold but the thing looks like hell. Besides replacing all the hoses and the tower, I was thinking of somehow improving the aesthetics of it somehow. I wish I took some pictures of it but I don't have any at the moment. It can easily fit...

    Not enough carbonation

    Ok so this was my second batch of beers and the last batch had the same problem. It just does not want to carbonate enough. I even waited 3 months and gently rolled the bottles to get some more yeast action. I think its the way i bottle my beers. I usually pour the sugar water in the bottom of...

    Stupid mistakes

    So today when I was putting my beer in the primary, I realized that for the past 2 brews I made I completely just used tap water to fill the primary to 5 gallons. Im really worried that the taste of the beer is going to be severely affected. Im in NYC and the water here is actually very good...

    The most noobish question ever?

    Ok so I am on my first batch of home made goodness but I can't exactly tell the temperature of the beer right now. I have one of those black thermometer strips that stick on the container. As of right now I see 2 different colored bars going across two temperatures. A green one going across 66...

    Another first time brewer thread!

    Hey everyone I finally made my first batch of wort and just put it away to ferment. It went fairly smoothly other than a very slight boil over. I caught it just in time so there wasn't a big mess. I used this no rinse sanitizer and my only worry is that some got into my batch probably less than...
