Sold. Thanks for looking.

Selling two 5-gallon ball-lock corny kegs, two faucets, all hoses, ball lock connectors, clamps, and 5 lb CO2 tank. Everything you need to setup two 5 gallon kegs and convert a regular fridge to a kegorator. Asking $150 obo. If I recall, everything retails for around $250, depending on...

Those were great resources, thanks for the response. Now to figure out the most cost effective way to order everything.

I'm still pretty new to brewing, about 6 batches in, but I'm interested in kegging. I've looked at quite a few threads on here, but I really need some good resources that can point me in the right direction. I am not exactly sure of what basic equipment I need to get started and how to hook it...

Thanks, I'll give them a call.

I thought I heard that Mike at Homebrew in Paradise was selling some, but I have to wait until next week to ask. I've just started looking at kegging too, were you able to locate any elsewhere?

Thanks, both websites were great. I can't wait to brew tomorrow.

I would like to switch from extract to BIAB. I would like to brew this hefeweizen recipe. I was curious to find out how much water I will need to start with. I will be using a 44 quart fryer pot with basket to hold the bag. If anyone can educate me on how to calculate how much water to start...

Here is a picture. I don't think it's bad, just curious if it's normal.

I added some yeast nutrient and another packet of yeast and it seems to be fermenting down now. I try to stir it up at least once a day. I have noticed a foam at the top that looks like starsan, has anyone else had this show up in a batch before? I can take some pictures when I get home if...

Thanks for the replies. I will try to make it over to the LHBS for some nutrient in the next few days, keep agitating, and add some more yeast.

I Made a wine based off a recipe that a coworker gave me. The recipe is 2 cans of hawaii's own guava strawberry concentrate, and 1lb sugar per gallon of water. I made a 6 gallon batch. It's been about 4 weeks and the gravity is still around 1.050. I don't have an OG because at first I was...

Thanks guys. I tried it last night and it was great, it could still use a little more time for the flavors to mellow out, but great for such a simple recipe. I used just used table sugar by the way. I've read that brown sugar works well for this also, I may try that in a later batch.

Made a 1gallon batch of cider with tree top cider, but forgot to take an OG reading. Does anyone know what my OG should've been? My recipe was a scaled down version of apfelwein. 1 gallon tree top cider 1 cup sugar And I used Moncharet yeast. Any help would be appreciated so I can calculate...

The jigger was lifting all the way to the lid, and the lid has some small holes in it to vent. I'm pretty sure I just filled it up too much. The jigger has lowered back down now, so either fermentation has stopped or slowed down as I assumed it would by the end of the first week. Now its just...
