I've been kegging my beer for 4 years and I've never once used any equations to figure out the time it will take. I'm curious why you can't put your keg under pressure while its chilled in your fridge, but if you can't you can't...I do suggest you chill your beer down as close to 32F in your...

I have a Double IPA that I had originally kegged and force carbed. Its finished, drinkable, carbed and all is good. I have gotten the bright idea to pull 2 gallons of it off the keg into a glass carboy and add some candy sugar and Brettanomyces lambicus. My question pertains to the secondary...

Has anyone tried adding a couple cans of pumpkin pie filling to a pumpkin ale recipe? I have an extract kit from NB and wanted to make it a bigger beer. My concerns are that the finished product may be uber cloudy or have particulate matter floating about...? Thoughts? N

I bottled a Trappist that's close to 9% but the usual amount of primer hasn't yet carbed the brew. It's been about 3 weeks since bottle day. Patience or proactivity?

I agree with the time issue. I just like the idea of this beer sitting in a bottle for a few weeks considering it'll already be in the primary and secondary for a month (combined). Whats another two weeks? Plus I seem to ration my bottled beer better than I do in the kegs. It helps when you...

I've got a NB Bourbon Barrel Porter in the primary and was hoping for input on whether I should bottle or keg? Opinions? Thanks! NA:tank:

I am looking to purchase a few smaller kegs so I can have the best of both worlds (bottles and kegs) for each batch I brew. Anyone out there have any smaller corny kegs for sale??? Thanks, NA :mug:

Got lots of suggestions to make my own starter... Not sure I know how to do that yet. Help?

Will it hurt anything if I try it and it doesn't take off?

I have a Wyeast packet that I popped yesterday at noon and it still hasn't swollen up. I called the local brewstore and they said to shake it and if it sounds like its fizzing up inside then its still good. Said it was just slow... Should I pitch it and hope for the best? Thanks for your...
