+1 on Micromatic and a big ole definite -----1 on kegkits.com. I placed a rather large order with them and same as everyone else, no response or when you did get one it was "shipping tonight or tomorrow" never did. Took over a month to get a my product.

What type of brands has the keg coupler that he is using been tapped on? My guess is that he has a type "D" keg coupler and the keg you are trying to tap is a different type. Here is a link from micromatic explaining and classifying the matching kegs and couplers. Although I couldn't find the...

Do it all the time. It's crazy the great taste you can make from mixing. Never even thought about it until I had a "two pull" at a Granite City Brewery and that's now my favorite there. Who would have thought as kids there was nothing better as a suicide from the concession stand and we are...

So if I would go with the 2x6 for a 7.2 CF collar on the lid, does anyone think that would cause a weight issue or I would still be ok with that? Thanks

Ok, I have been looking at hundreds of threads on keezer collars. I believe I am going with Bobby_M's collar attached to the lid. I would like to go with 6" board as I have seen some say it holds up fine. My question is do you go with 2 x 6 or 1x6. Or if I do decide to go to 4" do I use 2x4...

+1 on the Damp Rid mini buckets. I was getting a ton of condensation and one of these little buckets completely stopped it. They seem to last a lot longer than I expected they would. The nice thing about these is there are refillable so you save money after intial purchase

Any chance dropping 1/4 of a tablet in a already kegged beer would help to save the beer? I am going to definitely try the tablet on the my next brew but just trying to save a keg or two of beer if possible.

I have a batch of california common ale waiting to brew. I will try that. So if I am boiling with 10 gals of water for mashing I only need a 1/2 tablet, correct? Do I need to crush it up or just drop the tablet in. Thanks for help. I hope this helps otherwise I am going to be completely...

Hello everyone, I have been having some troubles with my all grains. I am getting what to me tastes like a chlorine flavor with my all grain brews the last few batches. Timeline is as follows: Tried brewing all grain Blue Moon clone. Chlorine taste after fermenting. Cleaned...

Whatever you do. Do NOT go with kegkits.com unless you want to wait month or longer for your equipment. They have good prices but hard to get a hold of and the wait is ridiculous. Brandon

To anyone that can help me find the best value for a couple of new perlick faucets. I got two already from kegkits but refuse to wait another month or two for an order. So where does everyone else get their perlick faucets with shanks. Thanks for the help guys Brandon

I got mine from lowes in the sink repair area of the plumbing dept for a few bucks. Just ask someone in the plumbing department because it's a pretty common item they should know about.

Need a little help here. Getting ready to start kegging beer for the first time. I searched the site and found some helpful hints on removing the poppets. I have four kegs to clean and rebuild. Of course they are all different from one another. The one I decided to clean and get ready last...

31 days! Received my order over the 4th weekend while I was away. Now I can finally get started cranking on kegging that beer. Woooooohoooo! I received everything I ordered and all items seem to be of good quality. I chose kegkits.com because I was wanting to place a rather large order...

Thanks. I will look into those on micromatic as I want to just mount them to the inside of the somewhere. That brings up a good question: Do most people mount them on the inside or does anyone leave them on the outside so they can control pressure without lifting the lid? Just a thought...
