Hello, I just finished building my keezer and hooked up all the equipment I got from Keg Connection. I bought a 3-gauge taprite regulator from them. So I followed the Instructions turning the red knobs counter clockwise to off. Hooked up everything then turned the knob to 10 psi for the first...

I was there for about an hour. Chatted with the VP of Craft and am thinking of joining. More people then I expected. The Nut brown on tap was really good and the Lime Cilantro was interesting.

Im probably going to come out. Its only 6 or so miles from my house :)

Really? I haven't been to Krogers in awhile. Do you know if they all do? Im going to have to find out!!!!

True, It tasted good last week, today tasted kinda not. But I am also sick as hell and couln't even taste garlic bread. I will probably just transfer to secondary with the Jameson/vanilla/oak chip mixture. I just dont want to waste the Jameson... :cross:

So on Saturday I added 5 tsp of Yeast nutrient and a pack of S-04. Took a sample today and nothing... I am thinking maybe my mash temps got a little to high. This sucks. Oh well it still tastes good but it will only be 1.9% before the Jameson mixture. I'm debating whether to bottle it or just...

So another question... Took my gravity reading Friday (6 days) and it was still at 1.030. It was fermenting at 62-64ish. So I moved the fermenter to a 70 degree water bath (tried swirling the it a bit while moving). So I checked it today and (8 days) and its still stuck at 1.030. Should I just...

So I am making the All-Grain car bomb stout recipe with a few tweaks. Anyways I used the Wyeast Irish strain and made a 1.88L starter. That went fine. Then brew day came and went without a hitch. I shook to aerate it and it was definitly foamy. I pitched the yeast at roughly 68 (I couldn't get...

Im also in Michigan. I just store one hooked up to the grill and the other right on the back porch against the house. I dont even cover them or anything because if they get rusty I would just take them to Home Depot or Lowes and get an exchange for what $23 or somewthing. I usually just have...

Ill Take a pound to 48315!

I could definitely use some bottles. Metro Detroit. Thank you!:D

On the way home from work today I swung by the a local wine/beer store that stocks the most variety of wine and beer that I have seen around my area. They had a couple Sierra Nevada's but none of the ruthless rye. I picked up some Founders Red RyePA instead. They were also out of the Dogfish...

It will be in the primary for 8 days on Sunday. I already hit my expected FG, I know some say to leave it in the primary for a little longer to help clear up off flavors, But I dont see why that wouldn't happen in the secondary. When looking at it too there is very little movement inside the...

So after getting all my equipment from NB, I was super excited to start my brew. One problem, The stock pot I ordered from a local restaurant supply store didn't get it in and they had no time table. Hmm. So I cancelled that and went ordered the winware 40 quart aluminium pot from amazon (So...

Quick question. My garage has the epoxy coating on it. Will the burner harm that finish or not?

Amazon has a 40 quart aluminum for $48 and 2 day shipping if your a Prime member. I have it and it seems really nice and solid. If you have a Christmas Tree Shops around you check them out. I found a SS 20 quart there for $20. The upper lip was a little spit and dented just a little bit, took...

Its $135 with BB.

Thats the kit I just bought last week and used yesterday. It comes with 4 ounces of Star San so its perfect. I also went with Better Bottles and it already paid for itself (kinda dropped one when cleaning, DOH). I didn't buy one of their recommended beer kits though, I bought the Dead Ringer kit...

Thank you for the help and sorry for any confusion. Yea I already made the starter. I guess I will pitch it Saturday then unless someone says absolutely not. Thanks again!

Oh, poop! Well is it going to hurt anything if I pitch it? You would think the guy at the LHBS would have told me this when I was asking him all the information about the starter with dry yeast...
