My current setup includes the typical 5 gal bath and 5, 1 gallon mini kegs. I only have the one tap / carbonation setup (using 16g co2 cartridges), while the other 4 have just the metal cap for sealing. So, my concern is what to do when I rack the 5 gallons. Keg 1, I'd go ahead and force carb...

I was gifted a neat mini-keg with a 1 gal capacity. I've only ever bottle conditioned my beer in the past. I currently have a nice lager that's nearly ready to bottle. Is there any issue in siphoning off 1 gal for the keg and resealing my carboy? Hypothetically, doing this 5 times as the mini...

So, I haven't had a brew day in about a year. I have been living in South Korea and left all of my equipment stateside. I came home the other day and my girlfriend had a nice surprise or me. So, I've never done an all grain brew. Looks to be around 12 to 15lbs of grain...

So, let's hear em. Example, OP...original poster. OPP something else altogether. If you don't play...well I can't think of a retort. :fro:

It seems most people here are US based. I'll be moving to South Korea in January and intend to continue brewing there. Any other brewers abroad or brewing experiences in uncommon places? Cheers :tank:

Just need to vent here. So, I sell cars for a living at the moment. Started little over a month ago, doing really well so far. Today we get a loaded Genesis coupe in, first one we've had since I've been there. Everyone who works there can test drive any car they want. So, 3 or 4 guys have...

How awesome it is to be 21, good looking and not a burnout? Way too fun...too bad it can't last. Cheers. :tank:

Yup, it's about that time of year again. My roommate and I are hosting the Beer Olympics for the 2nd straight year. It's kind of our take on the classic movie Beerfest. Last year, there were 8 teams of 2 and my buddy and I took home the trophy (yes there is a trophy). This year, there is...

So, which do you prefer? Personally, I like a good vodka martini over gin. How about you? :drunk:

So, I was cleaning my pantry and found the following. -1lb light DME and 1lb amber DME mixed together -1lb Simpsons medium crystal -1 oz Cascade pellets -1lb torrified wheat So, with these ingredients and the local Wal Mart at my disposal is there anything I can make on the 5 gal scale...

And I'm not talking about beer. :ban:

Well, this isn't beer related and to most it is probably boring, but I've been drinking homebrew and this forum seems as appropriate as any. So, there's this girl...we got together about 5 months ago. So far, everything has been great. She's wild about me and is unlike anyone I've ever been...

Well I had to dump my first batch today. I had 5 gal of graff I made in Jan that I just found. My problem was that I put it in the spare bedroom closet because my normal spot was full. I happened to be poking around in there today and came across it. All the water in the airlock had...

So, the other night was fairly interesting in a "regret it the next day" sort of way. My two roommates and myself spent the better part of the day drinking. First homebrew then quickly digressing to The High Life. That night we end up going to campus (we were driven) and first getting kicked...

Hey everyone. I got a good deal on a TON of crown tops and now realize I will never use them all. I'm trying to get rid of some so I've put them on ebay. Thought I'd share the link on here for anyone who is interested...

Ok, so I'm about to be capping quite a few batches at once and currently have no caps. So, I've come up with the idea of buying a large amought and not worrying about buying caps...ever. I might try ebaying a few hundred too, if I end up with more than I'd ever use. Anyways, I found this...

A. The title is to make up for my post the other day. It came across as a complaint when I really just wanted feedback from other people so I'd know what to expect. B. They called me at 9 this morning and made it right no questions asked. Very nice of them and I'll definitely be doing...

I ordered $50 worth of grain and DME and they left out a 3lb bag of Amber DME. I made sure to take pictures of it after I'd opened it and have already called and emailed them, but the aren't open until monday. Just curious if anyone else has dealt with this and what their results were.

Yea, so I wake up this morning to my roommate knocking on my door asking if I'd taken the Xbox. All downhill from there. Turns out the Xbox, 15 or so games and 2 controllers are gone. Someone unscrewed the doorknob on our back door and broke in sometime during the night when 4 people were in...

From northernBrewer. If anyone has done it, what was the FG? Just curious since it is called "Dry". The OG is 1.042 and the recipee is on NorthernBrewers site.
