I don't know what the heck was on mine but they were on so tight that as I mentioned the pins bent with the force from the breaker bar. I just took the posts off another one hardly had to do much and they came right off.

I got an el cheapo breaker bar from harbor freight and that did the trick. The pins on the gas side look like they paid the price though. Hopefully when I put them back on they straighten out. Of course the other choice is convert to ball lock.

Thank you for the info!

40 pages of thread so my apologies for not reading it all. Are people having more success with this than oxiclean? I saw this is for hard water but I'm just curious is the formula works better one softer water.

Hello I want to dry hop my beer and, after reading around the forums, I've decided to do so in my primary. It seems this is a good way to avoid contamination and avoid oxidation. Plus it seems easy enough. I recommendation seems to be add the hops when fermentation is nearing completion...

Anyone from Bergen County involved in this?
