Burlington. You?

SSIA. Located in VT. ONLY LOOKING TO TRADE FOR PLINY. Unfortunately do not have the time to buy for you and ship outside of trading....Let's chat :mug:

Id like to start bringing corny kegs to parties this fall. I usually naturally carbonate so a little more yeast sediment forms in my kegs. My question is, if I bring a warm keg to a party, and chill it for a few hours, will that be enough time to cool the whole keg and pour clear yeast free...

I brewed my first ever AG American Wheat beer. The Brew day went great. Hit my target OG right on the nose. I rehydrated a package of Safabrew wb-06 and pitched it. Fermentation started nice and quick. There was a good deal of blowoff as I used a 5 gallon carboy. Fermentation the ceased for a...

please explain...My local HBS owner told me just to measure out however much I needed and just pitch. Is it as simple as taking from the primary, and pitching to a new wort?

Oh no ****. Well that's great to know. I feel stupid :). According to Mr. Malty ill need 132 ml of slurry which I converted to 4.5 oz. Does this seem correct to those who have pitched slurry before? My max OG will be 1.070.

I am an IDIOT. The Slury I have available is 1056 NOT s-o5. So its a tossup between 1056 slurry and s-04 starter.....sorry for the confusion passedpawn.

Tomorrow I am going to brew a pretty hoppy IPA ( think Hopdevil). I have washed s04 that I can make a starter with, or I can use slurry for an IPA that ill be racking today. My question is what would be the best yeast to use? Should I use the slurry for convenience or should I make the starter...

awesome! thanks everyone! so Ill go 152 for 60 min as per you all. Then I just sparge at 170, correct? Should I let it rest a bit after adding my sparge water?

Tomorrow I will be brewing my first All Grain American Wheat beer. This is my third attempt at AG brewing. First attempt was messy, missed my target OG, but wound up with a GREAT beer. Second attempt was 2 days ago and it went really well. Could have used a couple more points in my starting...

I brewed a 5 gallon batch of 60 min. IPA clone yesterday. All went well, but I am a little bit worried about the appearence of my fermentation. I made a starter using one pint of water, 5 tbsp xlight DME, and some ranched and washed 1187 yeast I've had in my fridge for about a month. I let the...

So, Ive now poured about 10 kegs through my kegerator, and Its been nicely balances, and pouring great. I out a keg of Belgian IPA on tap 3 days ago, and its been pouring SUPER foamy. I carbed it with 4 oz of corn sugar just like all my other kegs.the beer looks clear in the line when it...

Do you just decant most of the liquid and leave a little behind to swirl the cake into suspension before pitching? Also, when making a particular size starter (eg: 1 liter, 2 liter) what defines the size? Is it amount of wort?

Nice! I currently have a few pounds double ziplocked. I think I'm going to weigh them out into ounces and put then into little baggies, then double freezer bag the little baggies.

A Google search produced some good results, but most of which mentioned pricey vaccum dealers that cost $100 or more. Any good suggestions that are a bit lighter on the wallet? Thanks!

Great! I'll check them out. Let's say my system was compatible with the faucets, would I still need.the shanks or no? Like o mentioned earlier I'm trying to avoid sticky faucets. Is this just a faucet issue or should I buy perlick shanks to?

Nice! Gonna get a couple. Any suggestions on best price? Also, will I need to get new lines for these or at least any additional hardware to re attach my current lines? Unfortunately I am currently out of town and away from my kegerator so I can't look at how the connections are made...

I'm sick of my taps getting sticky, and id like to invest in some perlick faucets. I've been looking at the 525 model. Are thesetje way to go? Also, will these fit right on any tower? I bought a generic 2 tap tower on eBay for like $90. Thoughts?

So, Ive noticed that my taps (2 tap chrome tower>2 cornys) are always super tight and hard to move when not used for a few days. What is this and is it avoidable? Im thinking it's either built up pressure and/or just sticky/sugary faucets.. Also, I will be leaving town for work for a month...

awesome, thanks!
