    Breast pump to replace march pump?

    I usually try not to laugh at my own jokes....however....I was Googleing "best brew pump" but accidentally typed "breast brew pump" (not sure why) and this thread was the first result. I laughed so hard I woke my wife up. She didn't think it was as funny. As you guessed, I STILL do not have a...

    All my beers have....

    The length of the racking tubing is about 5'. I put my fermenter on my counter top then set the bottling bucket on a chair. The tubing does not quite reach the bottom of the bucket but I do hold the tubing against the wall of the bucket until the level of the green beer is over the end of the...

    All my beers have....

    So maybe the "cardboard carboy" was an exageration...I was typing out of frustration. I am fairly critical of my beers. My beers are pretty good, with the exception of this strange lingering cardboard/metal taste I cant get rid of. I use 1/2" tubing for all of my transfers. I couldn't...

    All my beers have....

    The papery cardboard taste.... ALL of them... Some worst than others. However, this last batch tastes like I used a cardboard carboy instead of a glass carboy. I understand that HSA has some negative cardboard effects but I feel like I am careful enough when my wort is under 80 deg. I have...

    Pony Keg Kettle

    It was just experimental.....also see: https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f19/craigslist-sham-189562/ There is a 15g keg drought in my area...lol If I were to come up with the 15g kegs, would there be a disadvantage to leaving the rim? I cant see there being more cons than pro's especially if one...

    Craigslist is a sham

    Good point. I could have chosen a better thread name, but there are several people I know that have been scammed/attempted to be scammed. Maybe a good topic for a sticky offering advise to the unwhitting.... I have searched for a while using most of the "key terms" that were suggested, Still...

    Craigslist is a sham

    I dont doubt some of you find great deals on craigslist but I have been searching for ANYTHING useful regarding home brewing on CR for weeks in my area and have found nothing but some old miller high life mirrors for sale (no thank you). Man I would really like some sanke's for sale or even some...

    Pony Keg Kettle

    Not much discussion regarding pony kegs for a kettle but, I have one that I converted into a kettle. I measured it the other day and it MIGHT do a 5g boil (around 6g). I know the bigger the better but this is what I can do in a pinch. I did not do the standard "cut the round hole in the top of...

    "The most common side effects of STUCK BUNG are headache, flushing, upset stomach, and abnormal vision, but there are others. Do not get a STUCK BUNG if you take nitrates, as it may cause an unsafe drop in blood pressure. Seek immediate medical help for an STUCK BUNG lasting more than 4 hours...

    Bung stuck!!!!!

    Here is what you do. Take a Sawzall and cut the top of the better bottle off, (make sure you sanitize the blade) just below the bung. Once you get the top of the better bottle off, use an old shoe to cover the top of the carboy (dont want to risk contamination) so air does not get in. Once you...
