    My Old GE Kegerator out in my treehouse/mancave.

    It's legal in WA and CO now

    My understanding was that releasing the THC requires hitting a certain temperature range (like they do when mixing it with butter). I hadn't thought about a tincture or dry hopping it. Would mixing a tincture with a high alcohol concentration cause damage to yeast if it were added at a dry...

    It's legal in WA and CO now

    JonM, My understanding is that the rules changed on this topic this year, and it is no longer taboo as long as you're not posting about grow operations and stuff like that.

    It's legal in WA and CO now

    I live in Washington state, and with the recent legalize it legislation, I got to thinking about the possibility of a marijuana infused beer. Cannabis and Hops are surprisingly similar genetically. They share the same Family and have very similar genus. So, my thought is to take an IPA...

    The Importance of Proper Pitching Rates

    This was very helpful. I am relatively new to brewing, and didn't understand the correlation between pitch rates and the potential for infection. And I lost a pretty pricey batch to infection. If I knew then what I know now...

    Vintage GE Kegerator build

    The cherry came in 1" thick pieces, and I had to plane it down to .165" to get the flexibility I wanted out of it. I used a stainless sheetmetal screw in each corner to ensure it wasn't going to pop up when closing the fridge door. With some leftover cherry, I chiseled out a drip tray. I...

    Vintage GE Kegerator build

    I chose Cherry for the framework because it was on wicked-sale at Edensaw Woods. $2 per BF. They also had some remnants of Anigre Veneer they were selling for donations to their cancer foundation. Double win. Steam bending was way harder than I expected, and for that matter, so was applying...

    Vintage GE Kegerator build

    Step one was teardown. I really planned on going all out like kerber did. I planned on replacing all of the insulation, I swear. But when I started taking off the first piece of sixty year old plastic moulding, and it snapped, I decided the insulation is probably fine. I did what I could to...

    Vintage GE Kegerator build

    I'm pretty new to the site. Let me share with you how I got here... A couple weeks ago I decided to build a kegerator. My goal was to build it completely from scratch, using the cooling system from a random donor fridge, and building a cabinet that would really blend in to the other furniture...

    Attaching wood to Keezer?

    I recently finished my kegerator build, and i used some veneer and contact cement to adhere it to the painted metal fridge. It has to be a solvent-based contact cement, not the water based stuff. It adhered really well, but I ran into some issues with the thin veneer wrinkling when it dried.
