In the midst of my brew finishing force carbing I went to turn the pressure down to the keg. When I did this beer was sucked back through my co2 lines in to my secondary. This particular keg has a nipple that extends about 2 inches down, which was deep enough to reach the beer in the keg ( The...

Bah, its a work event she just found out about as well. So I can't blame her too much :p

Oh no, I had planned on finishing the steep. I'm asking if I can finish the steep, sparge, and then hold odd boiling the wort while I go to this event. Then come home and start up the boil and finish

I just found out I have to attend a function with my fiance in a little over an hour. I started steeping my grains a few minutes ago. Wondering if I can sparge and hold off the boil for a few hours while I attend the event then come back and continue where I left off. Thanks!

This is my work in progress. It's a 15cu ft I picked up off craigslist. Waiting on the secondaries / hoses etc to finish the inside. Pretty damn excited, this is my first attempt at taking on a project and building it on my own. A little out of my element but it has been a blast so far :ban...

It fermented at 70 degrees. I'm going to end up kegging it. It's extremely murky still so I was planning on letting it sit around for a while.

Haven't used the hyrdometer before, is this considered 1.10?

Working on this Irish Stout kit I got recently. I had a Wyeast propogator package but the kit didn't come with DME for the starter so I just let the package swell for about 8 hours, guy at the store said this was all good. It's been sitting around for about 5 days with little to no signs...

For starter the directions on the package say to mix the Propagator with 2cups DME to 2ltr of water. The kit I bought came with LME, just wondering if I should use the same ration or less/more than directions call for. Thanks:rockin:

I would definitely like the ability to individually control the kegs pressure. My/SWMBO tastes vary so much we will be brewing up everything we can think of plus we might incorporate a soda keg it would be obviously beneficial. I've been looking around at some secondary clusters, such as...

Not fully versed on co2 hook-ups just yet. I have a 15cu ft freezer I'm in the process of converting. Since it can hold 7 kegs I'm wondering realistically how many secondaries would be needed or "handy" :p . I see some guys just running distributors and some with up to 5 secondaries. Just...

So I got around to stripping down my lid to my freezer. I'm wondering if affixing the collar to it will be the best idea. From what I can tell the metal is pretty flimsy, minimal force bends it around and right to the inside of the metal is just some foam insulation. Just wanted to make sure it...

I was thinking it was my ISP as usual. Guess not

Thanks for the info Kegtoe, your build looks great by the way!! I haven't seen many coffins....in fact it makes me really want a tower :D I'll definitely cut out some circles for the smaller units I'm considering. I'm also just considering throwing down and looking at this 15 cu ft I found for...

That's what I was thinking with the 7's. Saw this and got a little hope https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f51/ge-7-cf-fcm7suww-keezer-conversion-192208/ That one has internal measurements of 28.75 inches height to bottom 25.75 inches wide 16.50 inches depth Saw this one as...

I've been looking around for a cheaper freezer unit on craigslist/ebay/etc. I was wondering what's a rough estimate to to accommodate at least 4 corny's. I've found a few 7.0's , random 14.8 in good condition for 100, just a lot to choose from.

The source you found had them for 20 per in Orlando? If you could let me know where that would be great :) Do ball / pin lock really make any difference besides the disconnects they require?

Fermenting my first brew, just had my first airlock rocket!!....What size tubing do you use to attach a blow off to the airlock? Would like to throw one on until the fermenting slows down in case this happens while i'm at work. Re-sanitized the airlock and threw it back on the stopper, lost...
