I don't know the models on either the prlick or taprite. The tank/reg combo doesn't have any information either. The regulators don't seem that high end. http://austin.craigslist.org/mat/5414821107.html

Afternoon, I am working on a keezer build and I have found a craiglister willing to sell me some parts and I want to get an idea if these are a good deal or not. Two Perlick taps with handles and two 5 1/8 inch shanks for $80 Taprite dual body regulator $75 Two ball lock kegs for $80...

Thanks for the information. I am going to give me a ring and ask him to plug it in so I can make sure it is cold. I also am going to take one of my secondarys over there to make sure it can fit in the fridge. Along with being able to serve beer from a keg, I also want to use this hold brews...

Is there any easy way to tell if the regulator is working when I go to look at it? He has the tank but said it is not full. Here is the ad for reference: http://austin.craigslist.org/app/4999084542.html

Hello, I am looking at buying a used kegerator online and I was curious if there is anything I should be worried about. The kegerator is a converted minifridge and it has all the lines, a C02 tank, shank, and faucet. It also comes with a pony keg. The ad says the fridge is working but he...

@kh54s10 - Thanks again! I ran my brew through that and tweeked a few things. I am going to give it a go next weekend and we shall see the results. :mug:

@sboyajian - Thanks for the warning. I did a Green Chile Belgian Pale Ale a while back and stuffed the secondary with green chile, so I am used to sampling to make sure spice/flavor doesn't get out of hand. ;) @adamdillabo - Would I use a brew calculator to be able and figure out if I have...

Another thing I should note is that I am doing Brew In A Bag (BIAB), since I lack the equipment for other methods.

Thanks for the link. Sorry for my generic question, just trying to find a starting point.

Hello, I am starting to get confident in my home brewing skills and I would like to be part of Home Brew Contest. However, I have no idea where to find information on upcoming ones in the Austin, TX area. Any tips/websites where I can get information on home brew contests?

Hello, So I have been home brewing with bottles for the past 2 years, mainly since I was in a small apartment. I now have a house and I want to start using kegs instead of bottles. I am sick of cleaning and storing all those damn bottles. I was curious what is all the equipment I would...
