Give it a shot!

I do think that the bag reduces the amount of influence that dry-hopping has, but if you use it, definitely get some stainless ball bearings, or bolts or something to hold the bag down.

There's not much chance of any noticeable oxidation, but if it will make you feel better, fill the empty sanitized keg with CO2 at your place, keep it sealed and pressurized until fill time, gently release pressure, fill, and recap. The head space will then be CO2 not oxygen, since the CO2 is...

I've painted several freezers, and it's easy to get a pretty good look. I would definitely use an enamel style appliance paint, or at least something designed specifically for metal. sand with a light grit sand paper, clean with damp cloth, dry, prime and paint. Follow the paint/primer...

Never wins anything here

I used Iodophor for a long time, and have the stains to prove it. Once I switched to Star-san, I never looked back. give it a try and make up your own mind. Star-san does last longer, but don't believe the people who tell you Iodophor only is for one time use. I got some test strips from the...

Lots of folks use weldless with no problems. I think the only way you could install one wrong would be to drill too large of a hole, or damage the edge of it, causing irregularities in the seal. Just tell him you want tho take them apart and look. If they are new, then you shouldn't need new...

Probably Green Flash Brewing's West Coast IPA, but there are too many great beers out there to say that 1 is best.

people who assert that their way is THE way, and off flavors.

cool stuff. Looks lab grade. Probably never intended for beer, but would work great,... if you can keep from breaking them. Me, I wouldn't use them, with my history with fragile glass....

I guess I'm pretty lax. I put the keg on at serving pressure, about 10-12 PSI, then burp it a few times in the first hour. Works for me.

Chill the keg, that's probably your biggest issue. You don't mention serving pressure, and i'm not sure what your portable CO2 device is, but you'll need a way to regulate the pressure in the keg and keep it constant. Temperature, pressure, and head loss in your serving line are what influence...

Agreed. Who knows when you may want to do a 10 G batch? It'll be easier to use on a normal basis, and won't limit you in the future.

I'd just add one, if you've already pitched yeast. It will probably turn out fine
