Anyone have any experience using a standard commercial kegerator outdoors? I just bought a Kegco and am now realizing for space issues it would be better on my covered, screened-in back porch... but not sure how well it will work given that the model is not specifically made for outdoors. And if...

Ignore this. Sorry, I put in the wrong forum. Just reposted in the appropriate one.

Was gonna put this in Brew Science, but it seemed too noob to. So my question regards what volume to use to find utilization while calculating IBU. And also can somewhat apply to calculating OG. The answer is easy and simple when doing All-Grain or if you boil all 5 gallons with an...

I am using the bag for the grains, but not to boil :) Just a typo... So I guess all the bag needs to be able to sustain for me is 155 F with a buncha grains in there

It says they are nylon mesh. Is that ok to use for my boil?

Help!!! I have a double brew planned for tomorrow with friends coming down to see how it's done. My order just came in, and I got it from a new site, and the grains aren't in a grain bag! How can I still make it work? (No local hb store) Cheesecloth seems to holey for the crushed grains, and all...

So I put a six pack of my bottled homebrew in my car to take to a friend (had already sat for 2 weeks in my house to carbonate), and I forgot about it and left it there for 2 weeks in the back seat of my car. The weather has been really cold somedays, and pretty warm others (i'm from MS). I...

Which appleton estate rum did you use? The v/x, special, 30 year old? Sorry, but i'm a rum noob so I don't really know which to get. Brandon

pkeeler, you are correct. But a conversion I have often seen is that 1 lb of LME is equal to 0.89 lb of DME, to which I have applied the conversion in my word document on my home comp :)

Will adding Irish Moss decrease the thickness of my beer's mouthfeel? I know that it acts by binding and precipitating out proteins to clarify. But since it is proteins that also add thickness to the texture, will this not also lessen the mouthfeel? The science seems to point this way, but...

Ok, I am going to use: Light DME for the Pale LME and I am going to use Extra Light DME for the Pilsner LME Speak now or I will forever hold you accountable for messing up my beer!!! ;)

This is the recipe I'm using, which has already been converted to Extract from AG. I'm also converting from LME to DME using the 0.89 formula. It says Pale LME... which I can't find https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f63/biermunchers-oktoberfast-ale-ag-39021/index2.html#post740744

Recipe calls for Pale malt but brewmasterswarehouse doesn't carry this. They have Light DME... would this work?

I'm gonna ask a moderator to go ahead and close it to prevent any more failing of epic proportions on my part lol

Sorry YET AGAIN. I suck at the the search feature. I answered my own question :P

Another question then! What is Pilsner extract? Never really seen that, only dark/amber/munich/wheat/light/extra light/extra pale

Wow... epic fail on my part. Sorry

Alright, I'm running a Mac so the beersmith program won't currently run on my OS. I was wondering if any of you kind, helpful, willing-to-waste-your-time-for-a-random-person, people out there would be willing to convert this recipe to Extract for me...

Last question ha ha... So, I understand the purpose of lager yeast and ale yeast (no imparted flavor vs imparted flavor). But if that is what holds true for lager yeast and properly used temps (low 50's), then what about if you use a lager yeast at normal room temp? What exactly does this...
