I have aged a Midwest Supplies Tripel kit in secondary carboy for 9 months. Compared to same recipe that I bottled after 8 weeks in secondary and aged in bottle for 7 months. No major difference in flavor, however I noticed a hint more alcohol and bitter orange (added at secondary) from the 9...
My wife surprised me for my bday with what she thought was a sweet deal on Craig's list. She Purchased a 5 Gallon Cornelius Keg and 8lb CO2 tank. I know I am missing some kegging items, what are they to complete the set up??
