    Cream Ale Fizzy Yellow Beer

    Thoughts on using amylase enzyme in secondary like the ML clone recipe has? A lot of the replies here didn't get an FG below 1.008, do people think there is value in "drying" it up or should I just let it ride as is? I like the idea of the ML clone being so close to BMC for my "clear beer"...

    keggle and 25' IC?

    Mine has 90 deg turns before the hose fittings, this makes it hang perfectly over the edge with the coil off the bottom. That's how I like it because the hotter wort will be at the top anyways and convection will get everything uniform. Are you guys just setting it in there and walking away...

    Sanitizing your fermenter

    I use Iodaphor so the cost doesn't bother me to make a 6 gal batch. I fill the carboy all the way up to the tippy top, and top it off after the bubbles settle out. After a few minutes I dump it into a Rubbermaid tote to sanitize everything else (airlocks, sampler, funnel, stopper, etc). When...

    Ball Lock or Pin Lock

    If money is tight and time is in large supply then use pin locks.... if they fit in your keezer.

    Ball Lock or Pin Lock

    Pin locks have a PRV in the lid but it is a fuseable one set to go off at ~130psi so you couldn't "manually" activate it to purge the keg like you can on ball lock ones. SixFo is right in that I often see pin lock kegs that have new lids in them with the pull ring purge valve, but I also see...

    Graduating a Keggle?

    Cut notches in your SS brewspoon. Mine has a super long handle and I cut notches every half gallon. 1/16th inch notches on the half gallon marks and 1/4 inch notches on the whole. Really accent the 5 gal and 10 gal marks. It's bombproof and fast.

    Can't Use Perlicks - Touching Collar and Lid

    buy some angle bonnets for the top of the faucet to adjust the angle of your handle, these are very common for those of us who use upright keezers. They are a couple bucks for chrome plated and 9 bucks for SS at most online shops (kegworks, etc.). Your LHBS might be nicer but mine wants my first...
