Magnanimous

sandyeggoxj was saying that they don't work well for smaller bottles, but it does seem odd that it stays at zero while both lower/lesser whatever they were gauges work fine. I'd already sent them a message about the whole thing not working so when they respond I'll just clarify that it's the HP...

Thanks for the help! This is my first time kegging and but it was fun seeing the starsan come out of the spout of my keggerator. Now to proceed with transferring my graff into it.

After some more playing around with it I was able to split it apart. After hooking up just one piece of the regulator I saw that it was going through just fine. I put it back together and tried it again. This time I turned the knob all the way to the right and noticed that it did start coming...

None of my friends homebrew but perhaps someone has a regulator I could borrow. I cannot find a website for Brew Logic so maybe I'll send an email to Midwest. Seems I've gotten a broken regulator and may need to return it for a replacement.

Neither were. I bought the tank and had it filled and brought it right home and placed it in the cool basement. The regulator came with a large order I placed from Midwest and was brought inside right as it arrived though I'm sure it was warm while traveling here.

I cracked the tank real quickly while the regulator was off and it made a loud hiss. Here's a picture of the tank and regulator hookups. The regulator has kind of an odd golden metal mesh but that's probably standard.

hmm that's odd I haven't used the tank yet and they filled it for me when I bought it but I'll try that now. Edit: it looks like the tank is 7.53 lbs. I weighed it and it was 12 lbs. I'm fairly sure I can feel the liquefied gas in the tank so I don't think it's empty.

I've just started kegging and bought a full 5 lb tank of CO2. I've hooked up a Brew Logic Double Gauge Regulator to it. I turned the tank fully to the open position and pressure needle does not move up at all. I've turned the red nob of the only line I have hooked up and nothing happens. I've...

The first time I followed Brandon O's Graff recipe I used Simply Apple pasteurized apple juice from the store. I live in central Washington and we grow a lot of apples so I figured this time I'd get fresh local apple cider. It says it was UV treated but still has natural/wild yeasts present as...

Thanks for the replies. I feel stupid for not considering that it was finished. I just figured that 1.020 seemed kind of high for all grain to finish at but brought up good points as to why. I believe I mashed at 150. Next time I'll be making a starter to make sure I have a healthy fermentation...

My second time brewing all grain is an IPA with an OG of 1.068 and has gotten stuck at 1.020. It was my first time having a stuck fermentation so I did some research and discovered the reasons as to how it happens for future batches. It seems when brewing higher gravity beers you want to make...

For my first all grain brew I'm trying to somewhat recreate an extract kit I did into all grain to try and produce similar results. That way it will be familiar and I can draw some comparisons. The extract kit is Rocky Mountain Amber Ale by Brewcraft. They call for 3 lbs of Golden DME and 2...

I've been extract brewing in my 5 gallon kettle and it does take my stove a decent amount of time to get that up to a boil. I just may try the BIAB method a time or two before making the large investment up to a full setup. You're right that I'm going to need burner to handle a larger setup as...

I am in the process of planning my move over to an all grain setup. I plan to make my mash tun from a Home Depot 10 gallon cooler. I've been looking around at kettles and this one has shown up at $115 with free shipping. The problem being is it's only 8 gallons. It seems like some people do 12...
