    my simple 4 keg outdoor set up

    I made a portable kegerator out of a trash can to bring HB out on the boat with me, and i have a 2ft line to a picnic tap i rigged into a pvc tower. I had to dial it down to about 5psi and got perfect pours.

    AHS 20th Anniversary Reviews (LME)

    I did the Wit and added the zest of some key limes to it that my friend grows in Key Largo. Gonna take it to the FL Keys to the sandbar for memorial day weekend. Its kegged and I've started "sampling" it for quality assurance. Tasty stuff for a Wit with lime in it. I'm a stout guy but this...

    Camping Cooler

    HD didnt have it, and I didnt catch this last post in time to hold off and check Lowes, so I went with some foam board cut into strips to line the trash can and shot great stuff in the little gaps in between each strip. I'm going to give it a shot and im optimistic as I dont need to keep it...

    Camping Cooler

    OP, (or anyone else that knows) what kind of insulation is that wrapped in there? I'm using a garbage can for a kegerator on the sandbar in the Florida Keys (hot as hell) this weekend and I will be headed to home depot to find some insulation soon. thanks.

    DIY Beer Line Cleaner

    For those of you looking for a quick and easy Sanke cleaner, I rigged up this mess for a few dollars with minimal brain activity. The beer line screws right onto that fitting at the end of the clear hose

    Kegerator keezer build question

    I have a kegerator, and i was curious to see if anyone has done one of those keezer builds with a store bought kegerator to make it a little nicer looking. hard to search for that because as soon as you type "keezer" you get all the keezer builds. I was thinking of turning the kegerator...

    bad temp control

    i misread the vial of yeast I used for an Alaskan Amber Clone (White Labs WL029). it said to pitch between 70-75, and ive been keeping the temp up there for all of fermentation. I'm 6 days in so far and its still bubbling away, is there anything I can do from here on out to reduce the bad...

    fixin a beer

    so i brewed a coffee oatmeal stout and im not a big fan of it. i really think it could benefit from some aging, but i only have one keg and tap for now and i dont want it taking up my keg so im thinking about trying to "fix" the beer by adding something, perhaps chocolate in some form?? gonna...

    what would YOU do with your ruined oatmeal stout

    could add some coffee if the flavor is off (im no expert, i just got the idea because a friend fornicated up an oatmeal stout and fixed it with coffee. im currently about to rack an oatmeal stout on top of some coffee myself)

    adding coffee to a stout

    thanks, i think im going to try the 4oz grounds to 8oz water you did, leave it overnight and add it when I keg.

    adding coffee to a stout

    Ok i know there are plenty of threads on here to read though for advice on adding coffee, the only problem is that they all have different measurements or are lacking some sort of crucial information (for the most part) I want to dumb it down and ask again because I want to add coffee to the...

    secondary ferm vs. kegging

    I have an oatmeal stout in the carboy right now about 2 weeks in and fermentation is pretty much done (i used a fast acting yeast that blows up quickly). i want to know if there is a big difference between using a secondary fermenter or just racking it to my keg to condition in the kegerator...

    beer and protein powder...

    for the record i never wanted to turn beer into a workout supplement (but that would be nice) i just figured, if im gonna work out, and im gonna drink alot of beer, why not get some protein from my beer. some of the other ingredients in the muscle milk blend may make it less than ideal for...

    beer and protein powder...

    ehhh.... not quite.... the supplements wont turn you into the incredible hulk, but it damn sure doesnt hurt a bit to have a protein shake after a workout. its almost hard to find someone that DOESNT do that. i take muscle milk (i know it isnt miracle grow) and think its tasty so i just...

    beer and protein powder...

    ok so i got the idea to brew a chocolate stout but with the addition of muscle milk protein powder. just got back into the gym and that damn muscle milk is tasty... i was curious if anyone has ever brewed a beer with protein powder and if there are any problems with that concept. also, if its...

    flat beer after first pour

    Ok i did a search and didnt find an answer to my problem so far. my first pour is mostly foam (but i dump it out anyway because im having a problem with iodophor in the line so im gonna replace the line) My second pour comes out with very little head and is pretty flat. I started off trying...

    how to get iodophor taste out of lines

    guess i should. i know its cheap, i was just being lazy and figured if i could dump some crap in there and rinse it out, that would be easier. might as well go with a new line. thanks

    how to get iodophor taste out of lines

    So when i bought my kegerator used, i sanitized everything and ended up leaving some iodophor/water in the beer line for about a week. now i have an obnoxious situation. my first pour tastes like iodophor. if the beer gets to sit in the line for any significant amount of time, it tastes like...

    Amount of CO2

    The CO2 tank is NOT in the kegerator, its outside of it, next to it (dont know if that makes a difference by showing a lower pressure reading if its inside and cold)
