    Bizzaro World's Jenna Jameson

    Thanks guys. I just unhooked the CO2 tank and the pour line and am bleeding off CO2 in short bursts every few hours or so. Then hopefully I can leave it at 12 psi in the fridge for some time and have a viable product. Your experience and brains are much appreciated here. Hopefully it works out.

    Bizzaro World's Jenna Jameson

    This overpressurized thing sounds like my culprit. I check for pressure just by venting it and when gas comes screaming out I reckon I've got CO2 in there. But yeah, I'm in sunny SoCal, nighttime temps might get down into the 50s. I added .5 cup sugar while racking it into the keg and then...

    My yeast runs outta gas

    I've brewed 4 partial mash batches. I'm having issues with my yeast not finishing the job. My last two batches I've get up to 1.068 OG. I pitch my yeast (Wyeast California Ale; I make starters where I will feed it some fresh wort and yeast nutrient, let it ferment for a few days, then pour...

    Do I quit or suck it up?

    Save up some cash. Quit crappy job. Move somewhere you want to live that has plenty hot chicks. Find a job doing something, anything. Get a deferment on your student loans if can't afford payment. Scrape, beg, borrow, steal. Date a bunch of hot chicks. Find some friends with common...

    Leave CO2 bottle in the fridge

    Is it OK? Work better if I drill the hole in fridge and leave it outside? Should I charge keg and turn off disconnect, leave outside? FNG questions. Sorry.
