Heres my two cents on this Oberon clone. I used Boerderij_Kabouter's recipe and followed it to a tee, minus the decoction and the yeast. I harvested Bells yeast from an Oberon bottle and stepped it up 4 times before I brewed. I did a single step infusion mash with the same grain bill and then...

I wonder if there is a way to attach a keg post to the bottle to pressurize it with a few psi.

So my brother gave me a Seltzer bottle that he thought I could use for homebrewing. The problem is I have no idea what to do with it. I've searched this site and cant find anyone that has used it for anything. Do you guys have any ideas? Is there a way to pressurize this thing with my co2...

Very cool.

The hot sparge also gives you a consistent time that the conversion stops. Not a big deal if youre not trying to duplicate your beer.

How long are the lines? Cant you just siphon off a bucket full of sanitizer or water?

This was a huge help! I've helped a friend do some all grain batches with his mash paddle. I just did my first all grain today with a grout mixer and it was so much easier. Thanks again.

Chest freezers hold more kegs and are easier to get things in and out of. Also easier to build a collar to get beer lines out of the keezer.

I put my temp probe in a bottle of water in the keezer. It is a much more accurate representation of the beer temp. It also keeps the compressor from kicking on and off too much.

I've used peat a couple of times. A friend of mine brewed a peat smoke IPA that was outstanding so I thought I'd try it in a porter. I screwed up the recipe and put 2lbs of peat smoke in a 5.5 gallon batch. I will use peat smoke again but this beer tasted like a campfire. Everyone says they...

That is exactly what I was looking for. Thanks.

Hey everyone. I have been searching for a week and I havent found anything yet. With that said I apologize if there is an answer to this already. I have had a Maibock in a corny keg as a secondary. I know I need to get it off the yeast so I want to move it to another keg. My question is can...

I'm not trying to get by with the bare minimum, I am just tight on space. Building walls 2x4 instead of 2x10 will save me a ton of valuable space. So I'm leaning towards 2x4 walls insulated and skin with wood or styrofoam insulation.

I'm building a walk in cooler in my basement. If a chest freezer only has 14-20 does that mean that thats all I need for the walls of my cooler?

Just thought I'd respond to this topic in case anyone else has the same problem. That is a Coke keg. Pepsi kegs have a pull ring relief valve, Coke has no way of relieving the pressure unless you push in the middle of the gas in post.
