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?

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.

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...

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?

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?

I'm trying to determine if there is a chest freezer in existence that someone knows will hold either three or (4) 5 gal kegs. I had thought about squeezing (2) 2.5 or 3 gal kegs into my existing kegerator, but starting to think it might be cheaper to find a chest freezer that will hold either 3...

So I realized that, if I can get my hands on (2) 2.5 or 3 gal kegs for cheap, that I could expand my kegerator from either 2 taps to 3 or 4. I'm leaning more towards 3 taps, I can't get over how expensive most of the 4 tap towers are! That being said, I was looking at just getting an...

My girlfriend is celiac and I have been experimenting with gluten free brewing for a few months now. However, I have still been using steeping grains to get the wort started and get my color. She has not had any of her typical reactions when drinking the beer. I'm curious if this is considered...

I've got two strong scotish ales fermenting that say they are ready to drink two months after carbonation. My problem is I currently only carbonate in my kegerator meaning that if I won't have beer to drink for 2 months if I put them in there. I was thinking it might make sense to get two...

So I fell in love with a local 'pilsner' so called the brewmaster to find out if he'd sell me 5 gal of it. Come to find out the one I drank was the wrong recipe and wasn't really the spec pilsner, so he got me to write a bunch of stuff down of which I don't really know what all of it is. All...

So I was thinking that as soon as the wort is cooled to 70 you add water to it anyway to get the 5 gal of beer, so why couldn't you freeze a gallon of the same water you are going to add to the wort anyway and drop it in to cool it down?

So I definately am not setting my thermostat in my place between 68 and 72 so I've been wrapping a moist towel with a fan on my carboy - my last brew turned out pretty good but i've got a pale ale fermenting now and literally after a day of bubbling it quit - now everytime I go and rewet the...

I just kegged my first red ale and I cranked the psi up to 20 to set the keg or whatever then tried to turn it back down to 'serving' pressure and beer startec coming out of the regulator - is that normal?

So I just kegged my Red Ale - how do i determine the approprieate 'serving temperature' and do I really need to do all that chart stuff compensating co2 pressure for temp or do I just set it at 8psi and leave it.... thanks

So I've spent some time searching and can't find the exact answers to the questions I am needing answers to - so here is my first post! I've brewed with friends in the past but working on my first Red Ale all by my lonesome - Few Questions: 1. I am going to be kegging so I have a few...
