    Soda stream syrups to make keg

    Just wondering has anyone tried using the syrups they sell for the soda stream to mix up a 5 gallon keg to put in the kegerator? My wife is looking for diet Pepsi on tap.

    Black currants in a stout

    Thanks! I think I did a pretty good job haha. As does my family, we were legit talking about this tonight. Reminiscing about it almost two years later. I’m going to pick some tomorrow and try to do it again

    Black currants in a stout

    I used a quart sized mason jar worth of purée. I picked probably 4-5 cups of currents and just put them in the food processor till it was puréed

    I like this time at night on HBT

    In my experience the treatment was a routine of spraying poison on the floors along all walls in the place. They’d do it once a month for several months. This was when I lived in an apartment. I guess the landlord had a contract so I didn’t pay for it.

    Since it’s impossible to catch up on the 1 plus years I kinda went inactive on this thread in particular but also life in general, I’d like to say Hi, and maybe even welcome myself back. It’s been too long but life has a way of interrupting things so hello everyone

    Black currants in a stout

    Tonight I just kegged a batch of black currant oatmeal stout. I feel the need to share the results. It was amazing. Top two or three stouts I’ve had. Has anyone used black currant in stout before here? Here’s the grains/hops I used. It’s not in the fancy style of beersmith or brew target but...

    What kind of coupler is this?

    Carbing in Amber pet bottles

    I kinda figured. I used I think it was 160g for 23 litres. It's about the average I use for pale ales.
