Not sure about a direct adapter, but you could definitely go gh/barb short piece of hose barb/npt

Everyone have a safe cinco! .... just drink up that homebrew and don't drive!

Thanks for following through on this thread! I'll likely give it a go as my first brew in my new home!

Just sounds like a slow start to me. Probably not a well aerated wort so there will be significantly lag time. I'd expect you to see normal activity in the next day or so.... Could also just be a super slow fermentation- I've had repitches (at proper rates and we'll aerated) take two weeks to...

Holy ****balls! What happened to stevo? I mean... Buttery beer or no, yall shouldn't try to kill him! Hate that I missed it but I was moving into the house had me swamped.

I hope to make it out even though I don't have any hops on order though i'm not inclined to think it will happen. I may well be closing on my first house on the 27th and if that's the case, i'll have family down helping move me out of the apartment.... That said, once i've gotten moved in...

While i always applaud a good effort at justifying something with math, you've missed the boat here I think. Heres why: you would never filter ALL the water in a household. Most of that water consumption is through showers, toilets, dishwashers, and laundry. In truth, i suspect most families...

SON OF A B! I was in the boro @ 3 today and would have loved some swill! if only i'd checked the forum earlier!

Sure, there are definite things that vary from the analogy to homebrewing. And, if you've got the disposable income to risk your batches, then more power to you! I simply couldn't afford to brew as often as you're indicating-- if you can, then you're spot on- you absolutely will get more...

Milk! ...... also my oatmeal stout. though i'm detecting more astringency than i have in previous pints...taking a bottle to the LHBS for critique tomorrow!

Just read / skimmed the book. I'm not concerned with the file size as there are tons of pictures. Gives a good overview, but i feel that it makes some dangerous statements as well. I also think there are a few images which don't necessarily add to the book, or might add more were they to be...

Okay, so i'm going to be "That guy" i suppose.... Why were you brewing 3 times in a week, on drastically different recipes, WHEN STARTING? It simply doesn't make any logical sense. For me, when starting (and still, because i'm still a new brewer with less than 10 batches under my belt and a...

searchtempest.com enjoy a MUCH better way to search craigslist. i always look for: keg corny cornie soda homebrew brewing

measure the ID of your grommet, add 1/8" and you should be REALLY close to what you need.

I agree with keeping it but if you're set on it leaving your home, i'd definitely sell it to a homebrewer. Keep in mind- while copper's price is definitely up, you won't get what it lists at if you sell it for scrap. Second, by selling it to a homebrewer at a good price, you make their day and...
