    O-ring between beer line and tap?

    I'm ready to tap a commercial keg for new years(:eek: I know let the flaming commence), and I'm wondering if I need an o-ring between the beer line and the Sankey-D coupler? I've only ever used the corny kegs so this is new territory for me... Pictures attached. I'm sure this is a simple...

    Balancing an "accidental" Apfel-pilsner

    I got my corny's confused and added three cans of apple juice concentrate to my bohemian pilsner instead of my hard apple cider. [Insert comments about how lazy/stupid can I be not to even smell the open corny to make sure I had the right one.] There's still a good 2.5-3 gallons left...

    Identify potential infection? (with pics!)

    Hello fellow brewers - hoping to get a little help with identifying a white residue at the top of my carboy as either an infectious agent or simply something benign. The beer is a hefe, left in the primary for 3 weeks (not intentionally, forgot about it whoops!), and then transfered to the...

    Faucet wont pour but poppet dispenses when pushed?

    Hoping someone can help me localize where I'm having an issue with dispensing... My middle faucet wont put out any beer, but my other faucets are working fine, so I know the gas is flowing. On the corny that corresponds to the faucet, if I remove the quick disconnect and push down on the...

    Off taste in beer with particles floating?

    Wasn't really sure where to post this question, since it doesn't pertain to a "home brew", but is just a general question about beer in general. After I purchased my keezer, while I was waiting for two homebrews to finish fermenting I purchased a 1/6 keg of ShockTop *dodges thrown bottles*...

    Sealing a hole in rear of kegerator

    I want to punch out a hole in the back of my kegerator so I can keep the C02 tank outside and just run the gas line in. There's already a spot pre-designated for this, filled with a material different from the plastic/metal/insulation/whatever-else-the-fridge-is-made-with. My question is...

    Carbing a Corny Keg through Liquid Out Valve

    I've read some contradictory things on the interweb about carbonating your beer once you've added it to a Corny Keg. A few sites have stated that it is better to run the C02 through the liquid out fitting, because this causes the gas to enter from the bottom of the keg and pass over more of the...

    Crushed vs uncrushed crystal malt

    When I was at my local homebrew shop I bought a pound of light crystal malt for a hefeweizen I'm brewing. I thought the guy was going to weigh out a half pound and mill it for me, but I just realized all he did was weight it out. I've already added it (in a grain bag) to my water to start...

    Primary bucket lid blew off

    I apologize in advance if this is posted in the wrong section, but my question deals with sanitation so hopefully I should be good. Two days ago (Wednesday evening) I put away a Bavarian Weizen to ferment in a 6 gallon food grade bucket, put the lid on, and attached the 1 way airlock. Just...

    Hey from Nashville

    Just started my first fermentation (Blood Orange Hefeweizen) a few days ago, and I know I'm going to have many questions down the road and want to do a lot of reading/learning about brewing, so figured it would be a good idea to get an account on these forums. Prost! :mug:
