Awhile back someone posted some venders where you could get bulk o-rings for corny kegs. Anyone recal? I have about 8 kegs that id like to have o-rings on hand for and dont want to spend $4 each. Rather just get a boat load.:mug:

I have a Coopers kit and was wondering if people usually mix in the water and malt extract to boil up? It says on the instructions to just dump some how water in with the malt and then add cold water to bring it to temp. but it seams like it would be a good idea to bring all of it to boil to...

Does anyone else prefer this method? I tried natural and force. Natural takes too long and force carbing seems to be inconsistent and gives a off flavor. I was constantly adjusting the psi to get it right which just made it worse. With this method i hook up the keg in the fridge and let it...

A buddy and I are making our first real fruit beer. We just chose a Kolsh extract kit as our base and have added 3lbs of frozen blueberrys to the secondary. I am looking for recomendations on how long to secondary this beer with the blueberrys. 2 weeks, 3 weeks etc.

Anyone ever done it? I have the hops in a bag in the secondary now? What if i moved it with the beer? Or, what about adding more dry hops when racking to your keg and leaving them in there?

http://www.midwestsupplies.com/products/ProdByID.aspx?ProdID=5673 Anyone have one of these? Im looking for something to clean out 5gallon kegs. I cant fit my arm down into the corny kegs and i have a few 5gal sanke kegs i might use if i can ensure they are clean. Thanks, Chris

Should my bucket lid have some sort of a rubber seal or do these things just seal up plastic to plastic? My dads bucket does but mine doesnt. Is there a way i can check to make sure its sealing up?

I have a step father in law who works at a scrap yard and i recently aquired two full size kegs. Im fairly new to home brewing and am not ready to do all grain yet (maybe someday if i have more time). Should i save these or maybe someone wants to trade for some cornie kegs or something. Any...

I brewed up a batch on the 29th and the next morning the airlock was going crazy. But, it stopped about a day or two after and i havent seen it bubble since. Its showing signs of fermentation. There is a bunch of foam on the top... Im thinking that maybe the bucket is leaking around the lid...

Another newbe question... Why do some of the kits i get say to boil for 30min while some of the others say 60min? Does it depend on the ingredients or is it better to boil for longer?

I am currently brewing my 2nd batch with my new brewing eqt. and am going to add 1oz of hops towards the end of the boil (last 5 min) and was wondering if i should add them to the hop bag with the other hops that will endour the entire boil of if it is better to just toss them in and leave them...

I have a keg\ fridge setup already and have been starting to get really interested in doing some home brews in a keg (im not a huge fan of bottling all the time). My question is can i use a keg with a standard type of tap on it like you get when you buy a keg of Bud or Miller or does everyone...
