    Too much foam...

    My pours are much improved now. I get an acceptably low amount of foam on the first pour, but I’ll likely extend the line regardless. I’m not sure I understand how EVA barrier tubing makes a difference. Is regular vinyl tubing porous enough to allow CO2 and Oxygen through or something?

    Too much foam...

    I'm not going to take that bet! But I do want to see my results iteratively. It'll be easy enough to swap the line out. Tower cooler was installed this morning. We'll see what a pour looks like this afternoon. On a related note, will a coupler in the 1/4" line cause any issues? It would be...

    Too much foam...

    Thanks all for the advice! I've ordered a tower cooler and insulator to start with. I'll likely put the angled coupler on top of may Sanke and lengthen the line if I don't get satisfactory results. Prost!

    Too much foam...

    I’m running a 1/4 inch line that’s about 6 feet long. Temp is right about 40 degrees. Not sure of a desired CO2 volume. I’m currently using commercial craft brew kegs, but I’m sure volumes vary between breweries. I’m guessing I need a longer liquid line- maybe 20 feet or so. The sharp angle...

    Too much foam...

    I've tried all ranges of CO2 pressure in my kegerator and sometimes it pours right, but most of the time I get 2/3 to 1/2 pint of foam. I'm using a Sankey tap and it puts the beer tube right up against the top of my kegerator and introduces a pretty sharp angle in the tubing. Think this could...

    Hops Harvested too Late to use?

    I figured I'd piggyback here rather than create a new thread. First year crop here and I'm happy with the yield. I have heard it takes a few years before you get a lot, but I was surprised. Anyway, life continued and I was unable to harvest before some started to dry out (see pic). I know...

    STC-1000 Too Accurate?

    Haven't had a chance until now to really dig in to the issue with my fridge. After using the video above (thanks Smetz001) as a starting point, I discovered the compressor is OK. So is the relay though. Turns out the ADC (Automatic Defrost Control) board is bad, so it's not sending 115/120...

    American Wheat Beer Orange American Wheat

    I used 2 oz of dried sweet orange peel from the shop and it turned out perfectly. Not too subtle and not overpowering at all. You'll love this final product regardless of which way you go!

    Commercial Beer Yeast Harvest List

    I received confirmation today that their bottle conditioning and fermenting yeast is one and the same. They use their "Chico" strain for most of their beers. According to the inquiry reply I received, "It is the most copied yeast profile on the planet these days, so if you get it right, it...

    My Stirplate... Cheap and Easy Build...

    I only used one on my stirplate and it's plenty strong. Just center it on your fan the best you can to minimize wobble.
