So many options! Thanks everyone. Looks like I need to read more on overnight mashing. I hate sparging. And cleaning two coolers is quick and easy, especially since it’s all pre boil.

Do you feel it’s more of the overnight or the no sparge that have improved your beers?

Why cold? Never heard of that One of my many goals is to shorten brew days. The other is to avoid over sparging

I’ve been reading a lot about no sparge mashing. Seems like something I want to try on the next brew but I have a question I’d like to get some opinions on. Since no sparge requires more space in the mash tun to handle the full volume of grain and water - I’ll likely not be able to fit it all in...

Thanks. Lines are brand new and had been cleaned / sanitized when installed about a month ago. Not long until the keg kicks.. so they will get another clean at that point

So its safe to assume that pulling the faucet means the beer in the line is needing to come out in order to not make a mess.

I'm about halfway through my keg. Faucet is a bit sticky and I want to clean it. What do I need to disconnect (beer line/gas line) to make the least amount of waste / mess? I have the perilic 630ss tap. Can I even remove the faucet mid keg?

seems to be working better now.. holding 10psi all day.

Hi, sorry if this is a repeat. I tried searching but couldn't find this specific problem. I'm new to kegging and this is my first 5 gal keg and use of my new insignia keggorator. My regulator, as I would have assumed seems like its pretty crappy. After leak testing both the keg (it also got...

Got our batch into the keg last night. Can't wait

Anyone know how much beer list left behind after racking the 14 gal SS brew bucket? I neglected to measure it prior to our first use. Want to split the batch evenly with brewing partner. Im kegging, he's bottling. So its not as easy of split this time. Thanks! -A

I just got back from Vacation.. beer has been sitting at 16.3 C the whole time..which is great. Gotta figure out bottling / keg day and prep for dry hop. I'll let you know how it goes but don't anticipate any issues.

Take a day off? Lol, I am, thats why our schedule is messed up. Thanks. I'm leaning towards the longer option.

Hey everyone, We brewed an American Pale Ale 7 days ago. It's been sitting around 61F in our SS Brew bucket. The original recipe calls for 2 weeks in primary at 68F 2 weeks of keg conditioning at 60F and a 7 day dry hop. We don't Keg condition, so thats one thing. But the main thing is we...

I just got my new taprite tower. It came with a huge sticker saying there is potentially lead in the product etc. Anything I should be concerned about? Thanks
