Thanks IslandLizard that advice sounds good mate I will give it a try.

I decided to add finings to my fermenting brew, I've done it before mixing finings with hot water and adding to brew. Fine. This time I forgot to mix first and added packet direct by the time I could get lid band got lid back on it was reacting big time frothing up. I cleaned up and now it is...

Thanks beermanpete will do that for sure

I'm trying sugar at the moment with one keg and another is in fridge cooling for another crack and fast carbing.

I chilled keg to 5 deg then set gas 35psi and rolled and wobbled keg around til it stopped gurgling waited couple hours . It just did not taste good.. plenty of head though

Cut it back to about 4oz

I'm going to prime keg with sugar as not having luck with CO2 How much sugar in 19litre keg 5 gal. I thought heaped teaspoon per bottle @ 25 comes to about 10.5 ounces (300g) Is that too much?

Thanks doug when I set it up I was told use about 2meters

Thinking of just adding 100g of sugar to keg and leaving for 2 weeks and not carbing with CO2

4 deg. 30psi rolling keg for 2mins (flat with good head) 30psi left in fridge 15hrs still not nice taste with good head though.

I seem to be on here a fair bit but it's best place for help. I filled a keg and gassed it the quick way and when I poured it had good head but beer was flat. Can it be salvaged?

I will remember all you said tgolanos . It was Coopers and I didn't think to sanitise spoon. It's working away now . It was leaking through lid.

I have discovered that it was leaking around the lid and only hope nasties didn't get in while lid was off.

I put down 2 brews of Australian pale ale yesterday arvo and during night I heard a lot of "blooping" but in morning discover only one was active. Carefully looked in dead one and it looked a curdly on top so stirred it and put lid back on. Still no change after 2 hours

I'll be watching out for your report on them.
