Thanks for the input. Now I have to figure out what kind of kegs I can use. The adapter from the c02 tank is cylindrical and seems to rotate into place and lock?? It also has a white handled lever which I'm assuming is used to 'lock' it in place once everything is in place. Its pictured above...

Hey everyone, So as most of us around here I have been wanting to keg for quite some time now, but just never had the funds/space available to take on such a project. Low and behold I ran across this on craigslist this afternoon, and it ended up in the back of my scion on the way home from...

My first passion is R/C stuff, but the homebrew makes the time out in the garage just that much more enjoyable ;) RCGroups.com is an awesome site for rc stuff. What kinda pack are you looking for, I have at least one 3s 2200mah pack I could give you to get you hooked on the power they make...

Marin Brewing Co. San Quentin's Breakout Stout Dark, tasty goodness! Not as good as when one visits the brewpub in Larkspur, but still not too shabby for a $3 tall boy.

SWMBO wanted the amrican lite so you know thats what I ended up brewing. A little over 48 hours in and things are bubbling along nicely in the airlock. Ill post up some pictures when I get done brewing up my honey ale. Don

Anyone doing any exchanges right now? If not, Im always looking to swap brews with people (local or via mail). Let me know! Don

Man you fellas are fast! Thanks for the input. Ill be stopping by the shop tomorrow on the way home and grabbing the Light Ale kit. It's been way too long since I've done a batch ;) Don

I'll be attending a party early in september and want to have some brews ready for 'mass' consumption. Anybody have any experience with the Lite Ale kit from B3 (Light Ale-Extract | MoreBeer Im just wondering if I should be going one step further down the taste ladder and brewing the American...

That'll buff right out.

Can't connect to chat, but this is an awesome idea!

Yes and no, its an edf unit running on lipo batteries. Think of a really high rpm hairdryer ;) Don

I ended up going with the American Amber. Put it in the fermenter last night ..... Thanks for the input fellas. Don

Man, all this cool stuff around here! This is what I like to work on while watching the brew settle:

All, Im going to brew up a batch tomorrow evening after a few month hiatus. Morebeer is right up the road from me and Im looking for some recommendations. So, whats your favorite B3 extract/mini-mash kit? gp125racer

Looks killer......and a first brew at that! Good goin, whats next on your brew list? gp125racer

Awesome, looks like a nice starter kit, you should be happy!

Fruit additions can/will cause changes to color and clarity. gp125racer

Congrats on the first brew! I live in California, so snow is somewhat of an oddity to me ;) I can tell you that I use ice and water bath and it takes 2-3 hours depending on the weather. If you use the bath tub, you can keep topping up with cold water. Just make sure not to get any in the wort...

IIRC, I added my hops 1 or 2 weeks before I was ready to bottle. Like I said before, just make sure they settle (the dry hops) somewhat before you move to bottling. gp125racer

I have an electric stove, so I cant do a full boil yet either, but it doesnt stop me from doing a full 5 gallon batch. Take your primary fermentation vessel and fill it with 5 gallons of water, and mark it permanently. This way you have a visual cue for future reference (you'll see why in a...
