Brewed two batches of cider. It's kegged an pressurized and I've decided I'm not done and want to play. I want to add some fruit pulp (blood orange to one for example) Fruit pulp is for brewing, and is ready to pitch from the can. I'll add another round of yeast (likely a white wine yeast) and...

I picked up a Pera flow control faucet kit from amazon and they failed to include the adapter to go between the ball lock and the flow control faucet. Anyone have a link? Looking for one that threads to the shank, not to the faucet due to the design of the flow control.

So, I want to do Cold Brew Coffee in the hot months, and I'd like to consider a nitro stout/porter or some such in the winter. I'm told that for coffee I should run straight nitro. Is my only realistic option to purge the bottle when I switch from straight nitro to beer gas? Looks like all the...

This faucet looks like what I want. https://www.homebrewsupply.com/stainless-steel-nitrogen-faucet-7510.html How concerned should I be of the Hexavalent chromium warning at the bottom of the page. Thanks to Erin Brockovich, It's something I've heard of. lol. -Mav

Ball locks. How do I prevent liquid sneaking into the gas line?

I have a Beverage Air DD50 and the fan is annoyingly loud. Anyone ever replace this for something other than the axial fan that's on it? a turbine type fan would be quieter. Looking for links for the fan itself.

I'm debating inserting an element into a Keggle, vs a flat bottom pot on an induction burner. Let's skip the cost arguments and tell me why you would do one vs the other.

Trying to help a friend. He's remodeling his kitchen, and his wife is supporting putting a three tap tower in the new space. The tower will require the supply be located either a floor below, or a floor below and several rooms away (25' or so horizontal). Dont want to go with a commercial glycol...

Second commercial keg on tap. A 1/6 of Resin. Too much head. About 8psi around 36°. Thoughts?

I've got a Belgian Quad on tap. It taps "ok" but seems like all the head is very initial, and then the beer is mostly flat. Would a pressure change help? Increase or decrease? or is this a head retention-fix-the-recipe thing? It's been on tap for a month, so even at ambient pressure, I should...

My wife is not a fan of the cool cycle noise level (external fan) volume of our new (used) Beverage Air 50 double door kegerator. Anyone have suggestions for reducing the volume? Our home is a modest ranch, and the room it's in will be nicer to use with a more tolerable noise output. It's free...

How do you store your grain? I'm at the point of buying base grain in bulk either a bag alone, or a split with a friend. Looking for input for storage to promote freshness and avoid pests. Thoughts?

Got the tail pieces out of my tower. Chromed brass. Is there a Stainless upgrade for 3" tower? and is it worth it?

I have a regulator with a low side only gauge. I'd like to add a high side gauge. Having trouble getting the plug out. It's left hand thread. Not getting enough purchase with an allen wrench, and it's NOT a hex (outside) only driven by an allen inside. Thoughts? I am thinking added heat...

Looks like I need to replace my utility sink. It's where I do beer clean up, bottle washing, etc. I'm looking for a drainboard sink, stainless. Any suggestions? Links would be helpful. I'm looking so far at Amazon, Home Depot. I've stumbled across http://www.webstaurantstore.com/. Just...

Planning on doing stepped additions. Will buy yeast tomorrow. Looking for a simple dry mead recipe.

Ended up too sweet. First attempt diddnt do enough research. Expectation for initaial gravity would have put finished ABV around 18%. Dont know if it got there (did not measure, broke my hydrometer on bottling day). Any options? what can I do with it? It's very "honey forward" in flavor, but...

Used my corker (blue floor corker with brass iris) for the first time to bottle a mead In wine bottles with straight corks and a quad in cork and cage. The wine bottle is cake and the cork and cage was easy as well. Makes cork and cage bottling a process nearly as easy as capping. Add a #3...

Wondering if or why not to force carb through the liquid port? Just a thought as I try to get my mind around all the info about kegging. Sent from my iPad using Home Brew

Looking to set up a three regulator manifold inside my kegerator. Wondering if there's a "best" to get? links are helpful. Else I'm looking at what Brew-N-Grow has and stacking three singles.
