I was able to snag a kegging system complete with everything to set up a two tap system including a full co2 tank, 3 cornys and enough keg gasket sets to rebuild each of them 3 times and also two 6.5 gal. carboys for $160.

Just a note, it's not always beer in the kegs you buy second hand. My kegs were full when I bought them too. Only difference is that they were full of sanitizer. Lucky for me the former owner told me that it was sanitizer, no need to taste that.

That's an issue that I'm having. I don't drink it as fast as I brew it. My new years resolution is to drink a LOT more. Also I'm a firefighter so when I start kegging I plan to keep a keg on tap at our fire departments clubhouse. It'll go quick over there!

My house is only 630 Sq. Ft. so I know your pain. I ferment in my bedroom. Usually just set my bucket/carboy next to the dresser. If you're worried about light, throw a blanket or tshirt over it.

I got one bottle of it and to me it tasted like some type of cleaning detergent. I couldn't even drink it. I went back to my Sierra Nevada Pale Ale to wash that nasty taste out of my mouth.

If this is the only offer then you don't have a lot of choices... Between a job and no job, I'll take a job.

The guy that runs the LHBS that I go to said that in the last three months or so his business has tripled. It's definitely taking off!

Being that you are kegging it's probably fine. If you had planned to naturally carb then it might be a problem.

The other benefit to conicals is the valves at and near the bottom for drawing off yeast or pulling samples... You could probably drill these and add the valves if you wanted to. They look pretty cool.

I ordered mine on Nov. 30, two weeks ago today. Still don't have them and UPS still says billing info received. Come on NB, get the product out.

I brewed a smoked porter. At first it was all smoke and no porter. I aged it for about 6 months and it is delicious. Age heals beer.

I think I heard on one episode that Dogfish Head utilizes a Steam CIP (clean in place) system. Like everyone else said, they wash and re-use their yeast.

PM sent for one copy of "Homebrew Favorites"! Many thanks for everyones generosity! I'll probably use it for the year, copy out the recipes that I like and put it back out next year!

I made the Brewers Best American Light... Mine turned out pretty good. Can we get more info? How long in the primary and how long bottled?
