Yes it will work great for a 6g batch.. Keggles are great.

Sounds delicious.

Cilantro is wonderful. Please let us know how it turns out. did I mention how good cilantro goes with guacamole?

How the hell did this thread get linked to the other thread? That's some freaky cool schtuff. I guess that technology is so last week also. I'm suddenly having flashbacks to when I did acid 15 years ago.

I suddenly feel triple hopped.

Not only do I not watch enough TV to keep up with commercials, I also don't know what the hell happened on homebrewtalk.com last week!!!! I'm so bush league. I mean busch league, hand me a beer!!! yeehaw baby. It reminds me of my buddy who always says that everything's been done and...

Left carboy is ok. Right carboy has a yeast blob and I don't know why.

For the one I just finished, I did 3 weeks primary, 1 week secondary (dry hop), then 1 week keg condition room temp. Then in the fridge and tasted great a couple days after (although not completely carbed yet). I've gotten to where I don't chill anything prior to 5 weeks. I've had a lot of...
