    Kegging 101

    So I haven't kegged in several years, had even sold all my kegging stuff and have just been bottling. I have a real basic question as I set my newly purchased kegging equipment up. Does the CO2 hook to the side that has the rod to the bottom or to the other side? Thanks

    First Batch and no fermentation evidence

    Initially no airlock activity, no yeasty smells. When I opened to pitch the second batch of yeast no krausen ring. I took a gravity reading initially but did not take one when I pitched the second batch of yeast.

    Hello all, I am a very new noob having just completed my first batch of homebrew this past weekend. I received a brew kit this Christmas with a Vienna Lager extract kit (I brewed it as an ale). I followed the directions as specifically as I could and everything went well, pitched my yeast...
