I'm positive it's co2. The other beers I used it on previously carbonated fine. I'm really wondering if co2 goes bad.

And the gauge shows 1000lbs of pressure.

Yes, gas escapes when I pull the pressure release valve. And I don't think the distributor I use for co2 offers beer gas.

Exactly my thoughts too. Before these two, I carbonated 3-4 other kegs without issue...but I don't brew near what I used to and this tank is probably well over a year old. My gauges state its half full. Haven't weighed it yet, but it feels like it's got some in it. I took my regulator off...

Tank has plenty of co2 and it's getting into the kegs. Just seems like it's not dissolving.

Hey guys! It's been awhile since I've been on here, but I've run into an issue I'm stumped by. The last two beers I've kegged don't seem to carbonate. I've been running the same setup for the past 5-6 years with various upgrades over that time. I've never run into this problem. Kegs...

Thanks guys.

Hey everyone...been awhile since I've been on here. Question. My brothers wedding is in a few weeks and I'm brewing all of the beer for it. We'll have one keg-orator running two different beers and another with a larger batch of one beer. I have the option of using a sanke 1/2 barrel for...

Where is everyone waiting for tickets? It'll be a cold one tomorrow morning...

Hey everyone! I'm wanting to build a CIP system for my brew rig, but I'm not sure where to start and the best processes to use. I'm hoping a few people can post about what they're doing to completely clean their rigs. I have two chugger pumps, and would like to use them, but if they're not...

I did some calculations and with the head and line length alone with GPM of my pump, it came out to around 4.5, so you're correct. Looks like I need a bigger pump.

No, I ended up buying another type of cam and added my own hose barb. I'll have to look at my parts list for the exact parts.

Sorry for the late reply. I'm not on the boards much anymore. I do have a parts list, but no writeup on how to put it together. The stand was welded by a friend of mine. If anyone is interested in the parts list, please PM me. I will get email notifications of that. It's not a complete...

Has anyone used this? I'd like to rig up my MLT with one to use as a sparge arm and to clean. I'm not sure my little chugger pump can handle it though. Any advice?

I just did an American strong ale with 37lbs of grain and jay bird false bottom...maxed it out. I could barely dip my paddle in it without overflowing. Lost about 5% efficiency.

Like Bratrules said...a swamp cooler is a tried and true method. It works much better with a carboy, but can be used with a bucket too. Just throw the t-shirt over the top and make sure the tshirt is semi-submerged into the water. The water should come up to right under your beer level or...

Hey everyone! Question... I've got an interview today for an assistant brewers position. For any other job, I would dress in slacks and a tie...but I'm a little hesitant for this. I'm thinking that maybe he'll want me to work today, so I don't want to be overdressed. Plus...it's brewing and...

I brewed a pecan brown ale about a month ago and I'm ready to keg it. I don't usually use extracts since I prefer whole bean flavor, but I picked up some homemade bourbon vanilla extract at a local farmers market and would like to try it out. After talking to the shop owner that makes it, he...

For anyone in the Rockford area. This beer will actually be on tap at Pig Minds Brewing Co. in a few weeks. I will be brewing 30 gallons of it for an "assistant brewers series" being released in a few weeks. If you live in the area, or are just passing through, check it out.
