http://www.kegconnection.com has great shipping $7.95 and http://www.kegoutlet.com has $4.99 shipping through the end of the year. https://www.homebrewing.org has great keg prices if you can get over the shipping costs. Brand new ball locks on sale for $75, almost the best price I've seen...

http://morebeer.com PBW is the beer deal of the day. Only one left so hurry up.

They are all bad. Send them to me for appropriate disposal. JK Brew the heck out of them, but don't be surprised when the wheat and California common turn out a bit darker (assuming LME, which darkens with age). Or see above.

No problem with a 5 gal bucket. That's exactly what I use and I haven't had an issue. You do need to position in the bucket so you can see the screen on the scale, but it is more than "firm". I thought it was a heck of a deal when I purchased the scale. Even at the current Amazon sale price...

Get one of these and stop messing around with weighing your grain. Consistency and accuracy are important and an accurate and "cheap" scale can help with both. I picked mine up for $19.94, so put it on a wish list and wait for the price to drop. I really like the battery option so I can take...

Stay away from the "clay crap." I assume you mean bentonite? I used some on a cider and it was a disaster. Gelatin and sparkaloid seem to work great for me. Time and cold temperatures will ultimately clear, but patience will be key.

Agreed. Cinder Blocks are the way to go. Cheap or free and they don't mind getting tossed around a bit. I use them to raise my burner off the deck and they work great. Otherwise build a stand and cover with durarock or hardie backer board. Either one will provide the heat resistance you're...

This is a great idea. I'd be happy to participate. Thanks.

Rite brew is great. I wish they offered free shipping promos once in awhile. I d buy way too much from them. Most all of my keezer components, floor corker, tons of kegging stuff and many others. Great place.

This sounds like the best Christmas present ever.

It looks as is someone used black silicone or rtv to "seal" the plastic insert. If you don't care about needing to replace the poppet itself, you could use an appropriately sized ram to push through the outside, hopefully knocking out the plastic insert as well. If the keg was a new...

Go to your LHBS and get a small bung that fits the drilled hole or go to your local hardware store and find an assortment of appropriately sized grommets to fit the hole. I've used small bungs with airlocks in buckets with great success. I just don't remember what size. It's still early...

Sorry for the inverted pics. I didn't even notice until today.

Is is a "racetrack" style lid? It looks like you need to remove or replace the white plastic part along withe the new poppet. http://www.kegconnection.com/plastic-post-insert-2/ or http://www.homebrewing.org/Plastic-Racetrack-Insert_p_3656.html There may be other vendors but AIH and...

Yes please.

If you're looking for a fairly inexpensive yet useful tool get this one. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00F2040LS/?tag=skimlinks_replacement-20 I just got one and so far it seems to work great. Very simple and easy to use. I purchased a huge bag of pipettes so I don't have to worry...

Here was my attempt at a Keezer with this freezer. Works great so far.

If you want to clear the cider use gelatin. Whatever you do don't add bentonite. Tried bentonite to clarify a 5 gallon batch of cider and I think I might have ruined it. The cider where I used gelatin was mostly clear in 2-3 days.

This would be great. I'm in.
