    My Weldless Build Using Strut

    Has anyone used the green painted strut found at lowes or hd? How does it look after turning on the burners a few times?

    Thanks for the input. I guess I'll make the bulged keg my mash tun.

    Besides a sight glass, are there any issues when installing ball valves or any other hardware in a bulge sided keg?

    Dumb question....do the bulge sided kegs hold the same amount of liquid as the straight sided ones?

    Which Keg Should I Use?

    Over the past couple months I've been able to score some kegs at my local scrap yard. I have two straight sided kegs in excellent condition and a bulge sided keg that has a few dings but is in pretty good shape. My question is, which vessel should I turn the bulge sided keg into? HLT, MT, or...

    Forget Oxi-Clean

    Hot water and a tablespoon of ammonia works great also, it's also a lot cheaper.

    OFFICIAL Kate the Great Russian Imperial Stout Clone

    We pulled a sample off of our KTG that has been in secondary for over a month on the port soaked oak. The port is giving it a real nice flavor but it seems to have more alcohol heat since we initially tried it. I'm not worried about the bitterness, it seemed pretty smooth.

    OFFICIAL Kate the Great Russian Imperial Stout Clone

    My brother-in-law and I brewed this about a month ago and racked it to secondary this last Friday. This is our first "big beer" and we were using a new mash tun cooler that could handle this much grain, so we had some things going against us. We ended up with an 1.100 OG, a little low for the...

    Wood-Aged Beer StoneHedge, Oak Aged IPA (5-Gallon AG)

    I brewed this recipe back in December and have been enjoying it for the last two months. If you are on the fence about making it you better get off, this beer is awesome. I followed the recipe exactly as it was written, but switched to 2-Row for Marris Otter. Also, I soaked my once of oak in...

    Wolfie, thanks for the input on the wood and the port. It makes perfect sense. I hope I have the patience to let this one age as long as it needs to :)
