So I just started my brew day with my newly built brew stand. I have it rigged with propane lines. Everything is going great then Bam. Burners go out . Switched tanks, turned everything on and off a couple times. Still nothing. I switched the burners directly to the tanks, so everything is...

Even if it tastes amazing, the whole campaign of undistilled beer is what bothers me the most. I can accept bad beer, but lying about the production of beer . ... For shame

Does it bother anyone else that the main selling point they are trying to make for this stuff is that it's "undistilled". Last time I checked I've never distilled any beer.. I doubt I'll ever try it. Just kind of irks me.

Just got done with phase one of my erector set brew stand. Couple burners, electrical, gas lines, and a pump should finish it off. Also another keggle. EDIT: Since i originally posted this i have ordered basically everything I need except for some iron pipe/fittings and a waterproof...

For all those interested, it was because of the bad poppet. It was a brand new keg with one of those universal poppets. I took it back to the LHBS (homebrewheaven, great place) and they allowed me to exchange it for 2 used ones! I would've gotten a used one in the first place, but they didn't...

I'll test it again later to see how it is working. As of now changing the poppet worked though

I switched out the the liquid out poppet with an extra i had (they are different styles). This one let me upload a picture, but one has kind of a tri-pod a the bottom and is alot shorter, the other is wider and taller. The wider/taller one does not work. Sooo i guess i figured out how to...

Double post, but i did properly seat the lid (Tested with some soapy water). I re-seated the lid several times int he course of this crap and never heard nor saw any signs of bad seal after it was seated.

I don't think this is the problem. The gas post has notches, liquid doesn't. i dis-assembled after the transfer and the gas post is about 2 inches long, the dip tube is the appropriate length. I swapped the poppets between the posts. (I guess the only thing i didn't do was physically swap the...

All three kegs are running off a manifold connected to a single reg, running at 15 psi. I ended up transferring the beer to the other working keg. After transfer it works fine. I washed out the old keg, cleaned the dip tube and poppit valves. Still not working, gunna bring it back to...

Beer shower is in full effect, 3 different liquid out disconnects all don't work (On this one keg) 2 of them worked prior to having beer in it. I just put the third in service to test this stuff. At least i can get my hefe from the other keg while i try to figure this crap out.

Well i already did that with the "out" port. Didn't mess with the "in" since it seems to be working ok. Maybe i can just completely switch the posts from other kegs and see how that works.

Alright i just tried switching the C02 line to the "out" port and pumping some gas through (I heard bubbles). Still no avail. I swapped all 3 C02 lines, and all 3 taps (One keg has sanitizing solution in it). Both of my 2 handle style kegs work great (both used/refurbished) the single handle/new...

I did some googling before i asked. So here's the list. Gas is going in, i can turn it off, purge the keg, and turn it back on and hear the woosh of gas. Also when i purge the keg when gas is on, there is constant release. I can depress the out poppet valve and get a lovely beer shower (Not...
