I have at least two to three very healthy Centennial plants that I will ultimately have to dig out and discard very soon. I live in the Red Bank NJ area and would prefer these go to a good home. I can wait about 1-2 more weeks before I have to remove permanently. PM me if you're interested.

I have a Frigidaire freezer and my electronic control panel failed rendering the chamber useless. Apparently this is very common and happens around the 2 yr mark. Instead of paying for a service or considering to buy a new one, I found the electrical wiring diagram on the back of the freezer...

I've brewed up an IIPA that I'm going to bottle from keg and I was hoping someone around might have a beer gun I could borrow. I will supply a bottle of the brew plus I have a full freezer of hops including columbus(tomahawk), nugget,cascade all leaf and 2011 crop, plus warrior, summit...

So I pressure ferment and usually have no issues with stuck fermentations but here I am with one. I started dropping temperature on a wyeast Bavarian black lager yeast at 1.025-6 from 48 down to 36 one day per degree. I pulled a sample one week later, debased the sample and no movement. I then...

When I built my single tier I had an extra keg that i had the top cut out for the future plans to use as a pretty cool BBQ ice cooler for drinks etc. That was 2 years ago and it's just sitting outside getting dirty. If anyone in the Monmouth County NJ area is looking for a keg that can be used...

So I've been lagering now at 33 degrees for about three weeks. Fermentation is done and the marks were hit and a sample tasted great. I ferment under pressure and I noticed that I still have a lot of yeast and such in suspension floating around. I'm going to filter this beer but I would have...

I brewed this on August 22, it's currently lagering at 33 deg under 13psi the natural way. It looks beautiful and the initial taste says it's going to be another winner. Thought I'd share. malt & fermentables % LB OZ MALT OR FERMENTABLE PPG °L 85% 16 0 Pilsner Malt 38 2 ~ 11% 2 0...

I've now completed three lagers, Pilsner, Helles, Dark Lager with different yeasts, using pressure fermentation techniques. The yeasts were all built up from starters, the wort oxygenated via SS stone and O2 bottle, pitched and fermented at a target temp of 48 deg. The pressure rates were 2psi...

I'm going to brew one more light lager and wasncurious if anyone has any thoughts on using warrior for buttering and hallertau for flavoring. I basically want to use the similar grain bill I used for a munch Helles but use eithe an American lager or pilsner yeast. I need to get one more batch...

My starting water profile is Starting Water (ppm): Ca: 19 Mg: 4 Na: 33 Cl: 53 SO4: 5 HCO3: 37 I use the EZ Water adjustment spreadsheet to calculate water additions. Grain bill is 11lb pilsen, 11lb vienna, and 5 lb munich. If anyone has suggestions on where what the right...

I've built a temp controller that's using an Auber temp controller, a 10amp SSR, and an outlet for my temp controller. Freezer plugs into outlet. When the controller tells the SSR to kick on, i get perfect 110 at the outlet. When the controller turns off the SSR, I'm getting 50volts to the...

Last brew session, my bk electric element failed right while I was sparging to the BK. Fortunately my HLT is closely identical to my BK and I was able to still finish my brew session. I tested the voltage on my SSR and found that I was getting a full 119v on the connection to my element...

I have attempted to try simple bottling of keg beer to growler or 1 liter ez cappers and I always find my beer to be too flat. My english co worker disagrees but that's okay, he's english. I'm assuming that I need to carbonate up to a higher volume of carbonation before I bottle. Trouble is...

I'm visiting my dad and he's had an Avanti single tap tower kegerator that has been a foamer ever since he's owned it. While I'm down here I'm looking to fix this for him. It's set up for commercial kegs so the diameter of the beer hose is probably 5/8" and it about 5 or 6' in length. The...

I've noticed that after I pour some beer, micro bubbles of air will begin to start to form in the beer line from the connection at the corny. Is this air leaking in at the ball lock due to a bad seal? Can I use some of the corny seal grease on the connection? Has anyone had this problem...

I'm wondering if I've f'd my recent beer. Here goes. I just kegged an IPA where I had the hair brained idea to naturally condition it in the corny using some of the wort that couldn't fit in the fermenter. The beer was 1.065 OG and FG 1.01. I definitely pulled a bit of yeast when siphoning...

I'm buildng an under the bench ferm/lagering chamber under a new brew bench. My plan is to seal off a section with a separate entrance. For temperature, my plan is to use a temp sensor that can turn on a pc fan to pull cool air from the ferm chamber into the cheese cave. My concern is could...

Hi there I'm using TH's EZ water adjustment calc to figure out my additions for a 10 gallon batch of robust porter. I'm using the Dublin profile as my target. My biggest issues up front is my CL is higher than the target and even with 50% distilled dilution. I'm still above the target and...
