Long story, short, my pipeline is dry, so I decided to turn my keezer up and use it as a ferm chamber. Eight days ago, I brewed an ESB from jaysbrewing using WLP 001, and a Biermuncher's Centennial Blonde with Notty, the next day. Both were extract brews. The ESB showed no signs of fermentation...

SWMBO called me at work and said there was a line waiting for the liquor store to open, but the new limited edition Makers Mark bottles weren't coming out until Friday. She asked if it could be " that one beer" that I like. I threw a leave slip down and headed to the store. Too late, sold out...

I have lots of Notty. And only Notty. Two mason jars of Notty in the fridge and I'll be washing more, today. My last three batches have been Biermuncher's Centennial Blond because, well, I've had the yeast and hops on hand. That'll be the next batch I do because, well, I have the year and hops...

So what kind of stores carry these things? Any big box stores? Or are they pretty much online purchases only?

Any reason not to use my air compressor to push BLC and StarSan through my kegs, lines, and faucets? I just figure I pay for CO2, but air is free ( minus the cost of electricity).

I just received my SS stout faucet and shank from Beveragefactory. It only cost me shipping...$8.53, I think. Last year they had a $25 credit for posting a pic of their equipment to their Facebook page. Most of the parts for my four- tap keezer were sourced from Beveragefactory while I was in...

I'm up here in Mishawaka with work for the next two weeks. Anybody have some must do beer activities. I'm gonna hit some liquor stores for beers that aren't available in Kentucky, but are there any great pubs or even breweries in the area?

Anything I need to do to a full, carbed keg before I pull it out of the keezer for storage? I have a 4 tap keezer and eight kegs. My keezer is only 16 cu ft, so it holds all eight kegs, but I don't have room to cold crash anything. Anything i need to be aware of before i pull the kegs out?

What are you guys using for check valves on your CO2 lines? I think I've had some issues with beer flowing up the gas.

So I believe my keezer is dying. It's an old kenmore from 1982. 24 cu ft. I love it. It holds four cornies and a 1/2 barrel with CO2 and and a couple cold crashing carboys. For the last week or so, it has not been holding temps. It stays in the 50s and sometimes up into the lower 60's...

I need to figure out some sort of condensation solution, but that's not the purpose of this thread... My love controller was showing my keezer at 51*. I popped the lid open and there was ice around the side about 3" thick, 4-5" wide and about 3' long. The compressor was still running. It's...

What are your capacities? I only have two 6.5 gal carboys and two 5 gal carboys. I currently have 10 gallons of Apfelwein in the 5 gal carboys and 10 gal of centennial Blond in primary. I'm maxed out. I plan on picking up a couple more 5 gal carboys this week before I brew on Friday. I have a...

And I've been asked to provide the non-hard alcohol. His wedding is at the end of the summer and he's requested a keg of Edwort's Apfelwein, a keg of something light, and a keg of something dark. SWMBO said I can get whatever I need to make that happen. My current equipment includes 2 6.5 gal...

I built my brew pot. All the hardware is from Bobby_M. I'll polish it at some point. I just want to get to full boils. AG is the eventual goal. I still need a CFC and a heat source, first. I've also built a workbench and hung pegboards. My garage is now a bit more functional besides just a...

Their suggestive marketing is scary. I think they have Kal's parts list. I just received an email that recommends: - Greenlee1-1/4" knockout punch - Camco 02963 5500W 240V element - Greenlee step bit - Leviton locking plugs - Leviton locking receptacles - faucet to hose adapter I clicked on...

Didn't bring any of the hardware I asked for :-( Some great stuff, but none of the keggle parts...so I went on a shopping spree of my own. Parts ordered: - sight glass with thermometer from Bobby_m - wellness 3 pc ball valve w/ss dip tube - knockout punch - male and female disconnects - food...

Monday night I made a starter to brew with on Tuesday. I was not able to brew and probably won't have a chance until tomorrow or Sunday. Will the starter be okay? I thought about pouring the beer off the yeast and making another starter out of it, but if that's not really necessary, I won't...

So last year for Christmas, my wife picked up some cheap beer glasses for me. She never got the etching stuff because she wasn't quite sure where to get it or what I wanted. It's the thought that counts, right? Anyway, the other night I finally got around to picking the stuff up and giving...

Finally had the opportunity to try some. Very interesting beer. The first one I had was pretty shocking. I had no idea what I was in for. It wasn't bad, but I wasn't really sure if I'd ever pick any more up. Nearly a week later, I cracked open the second bottle (I bought four because I can't...

...and WOW what a difference. I installed the fan about 12 hours ago. The three taps with beer have built up condensation. My first pour is no longer a heady mess. I'm not sure why I've waited so long to add the fan to my system. I've had the parts lying around for a while and it only...
