With a baby due literally any day, As soon as i found out that day wasn't going to be saturday I started heating strike water. Didn't have a brewday planned so just brewed what i could throw together 6gal IPA 2/ Warrior & Summit, going to dry hop it with either Simcoe or EXP6300 6gal English...

When I was bottling I exclusively used table sugar or brown sugar. Google tasty brew priming calculator and its will give you quantities for the various types of sugars to get the volumes of carbonate desire.

Think I may be going this a shot shortly. Would be a fun project.

sort of.... height clearance issue? = Pin lock is best by a couple inches diameter clearance issue = ball lock barely wins out. cost wise, pin lock is cheaper initially. I don't see any price or availability issues with either (i have 8 pin lock, and 9 ball lock). hardest part is...

Is this a problem specifically with the Johnson temp controlers? My ranco temp probe has been floating in mid air for the past year+ and i've never had any issues? Don't miss-read me, I'm not questioning you... i've just never heard this before and don't wanna kill a perfectly good keezer.

One thing I've done (and others have as well) to combat the airt temp consistency issue is take an old computer fan and wire it into an old cell phone charger. Plug the charger into the temp controler (i used a 3way plug) I set this on up in a corner and it circulates air when the freezer is on...

Nothing pisses me off more than trying to scrub krausen residue out of the top of a Carboy with one of those dang brushes.... i've got them bent into all kinds of zig zags, and still doesn't always work (i've even tried a pressure washer spraying into the carboy...seriously). I'm on a super...

up to the top.... any one got a recipe for this bad boy?

I'd personally want some clear answers or else cancel the order. When i'm spending that kinda money, i want a little customer service. I've done all my orders over the phone with kegconnection.com and they are great.

rolled the dice on my variation of this today. basically the same recipe as the grapefruit bomb of BMW, except hopped with Chinook @ 60, Simcoe @ 20, Cascade @ 10, and Amarillo(why not) @ 1. will dry hop it with 1 oz simcoe, and maybe .5 oz cascade. will let you know how it turns out...

Brewed a cream Of 3 crops recently. Used 3 lbs of flaked maze and 1 lb of rice solids dry extract Brew went smoothly. Fermented as planed, kegged at 1.010. BUT it's very sweet tasting. Is this a result of the rice or corn (never used either of them before). The beer is great There are no...

If it was Belgian yeast you're gonna be great! I let a blonde on Notty go through a weeknqith no AC last summer and it got into the 80s and tasted like pure liquid sulfur. I'd say bottle it and see what happens

Bayou banjo burner. Ithink they are like 50 bucks at brewmasters warehouse with a stand. That's what I use for both my hot and boil kettle. Boils 10gal like a champ! I get easily 5 brews off a propane tank

I've got a 9volt dc adapter on the fan in my 10 cu/ft keezer and or works great.

Forget walmart... Talk to any IT guy and he'll het you a fan from a fried computer, then go to goodwill and get. A DV charger for less than $1.50. Doing this and puttin a fan in my keezer was one of the best choices I've made since getting kegs.

+1. You should still be able to get out for 1/2 of retail cost with renting a truck and shooing craigslist list. It took 2 months but I got a 10 cu ft freezer and a digital temp controler for $140. Would have been over $400 new.

Yeah I typically drop my chiller in at 10 minutes left in the boil then hook it up and run it till my keggle is cool to the touch, transfer to primary, then pitch my yeast once my ferm-ometer (stick on thermometer on my primaries) reads in the 70s and pitch my yeast then. I'm actually planning...

I added the NB at the first sign of boil, and boiled them for 60 minutes, then added the Columbus/Tomahawk/Zeus/whatever name you choose at with 15 minutes remaining in the boil and for the record, the resulting beer was nowhere near a bass ale clone. It was about an 8% abv recipe, with hop...

Carona. About 2 weeks before my 21st birthday. I hated it. New castle was next, not too bad... Then one night with a buddy we killed a suitcase of natty ice.

Looks good. I like Vienna in my IPAs.. actually usually use it as my base malt. Depending on the malt character you want maybe toss some C40L in there. Hop schedule looks good, maybe dryhop some cascade is you've got more. As far as yeast goes, I like US05 in IPAs simply due to the cleaner...
