    An appeal to Northeast U.S. Homebrewers

    I'm in Canada, so I'm gonna emphasize the hardware: "IF it makes economic sense to do so." ... It does. I often find myself using the phrase: "Buy Once, Cry Once." I've bought your T-port 3-way valves, Hot Pods, True Bulkheads, Spin Cycle, custom-bent RIMS element and high-flow camlocks...

    Foamy beer

    +1 ^^ to the warm tap. I took another look back at your previous leak-posts and I don't see any vent hose going up the tower. Take a look and see if you have a place you could mount one, or just consider buying a tower-cooler: https://www.morebeer.com/products/draft-tower-fan-kit.html We can...

    Corny Keg Showdown

    No. The AEB posts are a bit larger; a 7/8" wrench is s bit loose..I think it's metric. Also Kegland uses the same universal poppets they sell, AEB uses their own. Kegland: AEB: PS: Since this thread started, I'm now up to 5 Kegland kegs and still very pleased with them, but also still love...

    Warm homebrew is ok

    Personally I'd consider it a good test for your amber and stout. The only time I'd drink while working was when I was supposed to be 'relaxing' on a weekend, but I've never been able to sit around doing nothing so; In the middle of a pint I'd find some small project to work on, and come back...

    what does the pbw powder taste like?

    I mentioned this in another thread, but no-one commented on it so I don't know if it's just my imagination, but: With my pet vessels, I keep PBW temps well below 130° as most plastics can't sustain much higher without beginning to break down. What I noticed is that if I rinse with water 10°-20°...

    Vulcan-Hart Steam Kettle Find BIAB

    Really nice looking unit! My LHBS founded it's buisness model by installing a row of those and advertising in large letters: "Beer! Brew it here!" I'm looking forward to seeing you build this up. I am wondering at that statement though; LP is gas.. do you mean propane? If so, I'm pretty...

    Have I lost the chrome plate here?

    Aesthetics, quality build, and long-term availability of parts: Perlick SS Ugly but quality built, long-term availablity of parts and less costly: Nukatap SS The most important part is the Stainless steel; Drink the beer, not the hardware! -Just my 2-cents. :mug:

    how about a meme generator thread...

    Good experiences on tennis courts: Ghetto-blaster playing ABBA and roller-skates! .....just watch out for those small stones. 🛼:ban::bigmug:

    Clean my fermenter keg from stains/dirt?

    First: +1 to both the above posts. If you haven't used PBW (or the homemade version) before, it'll be an epiphany. Second: I see from your other posts that you're an avid DIY'er so this should be right up your alley; Build a keg washer. Here's my barebones prototype: I use PBW at 130°...

    what does the pbw powder taste like?

    ADDENDUM: PBW does NOT pair well with oatmeal stout!

    what does the pbw powder taste like?

    BBBLLLLLLEEEEEEECCCHHHHHH!!!!!! Damn it!... I read your post too fast to begin with and the part about 'both are sweet to taste' went right past me and since we're all saying pretty much the same thing; I went and just tasted PBW :p It is anything but sweet!!!! It tastes like early-seventies...

    what does the pbw powder taste like?

    Dextrose is usually ground significantly finer than PBW, which tends toward coarse. Just mix a small amount with water if you're still not sure; The PBW will feel slimey, dextrose not so much.. plus; in cold water the dextrose will dissolve much faster.

    converting a 110 outlet to 220

    You should replace that key-ring between the 2 keys with a 10AWG key-ring. :ban:

    Modelo?

    I have a local Mexican restaurant I've been going to for 30 years and I always delight in having a Negra Modelo with my meal. I've tried the Especial and thought it tasted like BMC piss. I also occasionally enjoy Dos Equis Ambar, Cerveza and Sol. I won't recommend the Especial, but if you can...

    Equipment set up

    Is there a heatsink on the back of the unit? I can see the element power coming out of some 30A relays plugged into DIN rail mounts, but I can't see any feed from a Solid State Relay. I can see an old Radio Shack proto board, but can't identify the components... I really hope someone didn't...
