Thanks for the help. I did some checking and I had forgot to loosen the set screw on the knob. Turns freely know. It seems that I am keeping a constant 10# know. Pours are consistent now.

By the way I also switched out 2.5 co2 tank for a 5#'er. I also noticed tonight that the beer was flowing pretty slowly at after pouring two pints one after another. What am I doing wrong. One of the gauges is at the 500 bar mark with 10# pressure.

My children bought me a Igloo Kegerator from Wal-Mart this year for Christmas. Yes I already know I have awesome children. Anyway Im not having much luck with the regulator. First off let me explain it. It has a red knob on it that has a + and - on it which is self explanatory. It barely...

I made a baby once while drinking a beer! Im starting to understand this now.

My 1st brew was a brown porter kit from AHS and I can tell you that it turned out great for me. I tasted one bottle every week up to the 4 week mark. It just keeps getting better, as a matter fact I enjoyed a few last night. I now have a Belgian wheat bottled and a Oatmeal Stout racked...

Well my little science project AKA homebrewing has been very rewarding so far. I sampled one of my 1st beers last night. I loved it....hell Im not really sure that its very good, but I made it and I like it! Its still a tad green with only being bottled for 2 weeks now, so I think its only...

Personally Id sit back and drink a cold one and wait it out. I have pretty good patience though. LOL

Ok thanks. I was just wondering about the temp and trying to get water boiling. Ive been brewing in the garage.

Im thinking about brewing tonight after work out on my back patio. Its kinda cool and windy. I was thinking about taking a 55 gallon drum I have and cut it to height to keep burner and boil pot out of the wind. Is this necessary. Its going to around 55 and 10mph wind. I think its going to...

I have a belgian white in the primary right now that smells like someone dropped a #2 into!

This is certainly a noob question but does this freezer have a setting low enough to keep beer from freezing?

3 lbs sounds like a good place to start. I can pick up some cherry flavoring also. Im thinking a week or so in the secondary.

Im going to be brewing a AHS American Wheat beer. Im wanting to rack onto cherries in the secondary. My local grocery store sells Oregon Tart Cherries in a waterbase. How much should I use and how long? I dont want it overpowering. If it matters I consider the cherry in Sam Adams Cherry...

I like it on tap...not a fan of it from a bottle. I can tell a difference.

I just brewed my 2nd overall homebrew. My 1st was AHS Brown Porter and both the OG and FG came in exactly what the kit called for. I just brewed a AHS Blue Moon clone and the SG was at 1.050 instead of the 1.053 that the kit called for. Am I going to be ok?
