    Airlock has come off twice now

    The entire stopper came out, not just the tube.

    Airlock has come off twice now

    It has been in the first 2 days of fermentation. A few months back I bought a second carboy and decided to try the better bottle. Well, the top of it isn't the same size as the glass carboy (that I just use blow off tubing in) so I had to buy a stopper that the tube goes in the center. So, it is...

    Airlock has come off twice now

    I brewed a Centennial Blonde and twice now I have walked in and the stopper that goes in my carboy has blown out and the top is wide open. I've got it secured now with tape, but I'm curious what damage could have been done to the beer?

    Show us your Kegerator

    Depending on what your tolerance is for the collar, you might want to build a bigger one. As you can see, I had to cut out the top of the lid to fit everything in, I really didn't want the collar any taller than a 1x6

    balancing system - is it referring to OVERALL line length or per keg?

    I have one co2 tank and regulator going into a distribution block that splits to (4) kegs so I can turn on each keg individually if needed.

    balancing system - is it referring to OVERALL line length or per keg?

    Working on calculating my beer line length and trying to understand if the calculations are referring to line length PER keg or total in the system. I have (4) kegs on the same co2 bottle that I'm trying to balance out.

    So I'm guessing one I get some beer through them they will stick a little more?

    Built the collar after all - here is the finished product!

    Here is the inside - on a side note: why are the perlick SO easy to pull. Is there a way to make them not so easy so there is a little less chance of accidentally bumping them open?

    Built the collar after all - here is the finished product!

    Pretty pumped! I still had to dremel about 1" of insulation out of the lid to clear the lines coming out of the kegs. Turned out pretty good, now I just need all my beer to be ready! Running to home depot to get some hose clamps because I got Oetiker Clamps on accident and don't have the tool...

    Froze my yeast, what's the best way to test it

    I'm new to starters. I do gluten free brewing so how does that work out?

    Froze my yeast, what's the best way to test it

    I accidentally froze my friends yeast last weekend and so bought him new ones and kept the ones I froze. I moved them to the fridge, but was curious how I go about testing them to see if they are viable and can be used in my brews?

    Securing collar to kegerator

    I am working on building a collar for a kegerator. I am looking for methods people have used to attach a collar to a kegerator. I'm sure there is a how to somewhere; I just haven't been able to find it yet. Suggestions?

    Where'd you get it from?

    anyone know of a chest freezer that will TIGHTLY hold three 5 gal kegs?

    Cool - would love to see a picture of the inside as well. I'd rather not do this collar thing if possible, but I suppose it is an option.

    anyone know of a chest freezer that will TIGHTLY hold three 5 gal kegs?

    Now I'm curious if there is some way to squeeze a 3rd in my kegerator - can't wait to see pictures of how people have done it. 99% sure mine is a 5cf but haven't figured out how I could squeeze 3 in yet.
