    Force carbing mishap

    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.

    spur of the moment emergency

    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!

    Rough CU FT for 4 corny's

    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.
