    Keeping Pressure Down

    Hey guys, I'm having some trouble keeping my C02 pressure correct. I have a light ale on tap right now, it's my first batch ever. I set the pressure at say about 11.5 and it will stay there for about 4 hours. Then, say when I wake up and check it the pressure has risen in the tank to about 18...

    Mold? Keg?

    Hey guys, I am fixin to move my first batch from secondary to the corny keg. I have a few questions. First thing is first. I have found several (say maybe 10 or so) little whitish dots on the surface of my brew. They are maybe the size of a pin head. Very small but they resemble mold. Is...

    Where to fill CO2

    thanks guys, I'm headed to academy right now to check to see if they can fill it. They said that the biggest they have filled before is a 20 ounce bottle. They only have one fitting to fill with so I'm hoping that it's universal.

    I Risked My Beer to Rack to Secondary

    Hey guys, I've just racked my wort into my secondary but I could not for the life of me figure out how to siphon without using my mouth. I have a carboytap or whatever but could not figure out how to make it work. Anyway, I ended up risking my beer by using my mouth. I swished with some mouth...

    Quick Question about Racking to Secondary

    Hey guys, just a quick quesiton. My first batch has been in primary since about 2:00 a.m. on the 27th. The bubbling has slowed down to about a bubble every 90 seconds in the airlock. There is still some gunk floating around on the top of the wort. Is this going to totally disperse back into...

    Making an Illegal Beer?

    Thanks guys, and I am in college so this is the time and place. Hehe. Anyway, I make canni-butter all the time. Cooking the herb in butter seems to extract all the goodies i need. I don't see why boiling in water wouldn't do the same. I've made hash using ethyl alcohol and it seemed to work...

    Get a picture.

    I'm 21, be 22 in June. Ever since my 21st I tend to buy as much variety of beer as possible. That's why I'm getting into homebrewing. I think I'll fall in love with getting to try so many more types of beers. I've had all the ones in my local beer store. (43 to be exact) It interesting...
