So I am working on getting the perfect red for my irish red, but I think what's killing me is that the large range of colors with crystal malts such as caraaroma (130-170srm). I realized beersmith had the malt in at 178srm which throw off my color when designing the recipe. Does anyone know if...

Canada!

My apologies I was having a brain fart and was thinking of my 3ft gas lines that I just had cut to run from my 2 way splitter to the kegs. My beer lines are 6ft, but like I said him saying 15ft threw me for a loop.

Well I guess you can consider me lucky, I strap my kegs on at 12 psi and run the distance stated above and they carbonate and pour perfectly everytime with a finger or two of head, which then reflect how much head rentention I was able to get on my recipe

I am more referring to an all in one store bought fridge, like a danby. If you have a homemade one it's completely different and to go even further to say you may need difference types of gas depending on distance

Why so much line? Less line the better. Cut down your lines, mine are about 3', just enough to get to kegs with some added space to move them around. Are you purging kegs after you fill them? If I were you I would brew 5 gal batches...you fill up your 5 gal keg and you can mess around with split...

Your abv is calculated by taking your original gravity and minus your final gravity, which would make the wine 10%. Your measuring the amount of the sugars the yeast eats which is what calculatea abv

I ordered a tower with the option to upgrade to intertap or perlicks from ontariobeerkegs. Any 3" tower should do, depends what you wanna spend.

The original is a twist lock. I don't see the need to spend the extra money on flow control, what I have pours perfect beer and ball locks are what everyone carries locally and what I have owned from the start (about 6 years with one rebuild each). I am more than happy with both and have had...

I post here today because I got into kegging because I was sick of syphoning beer and love beer on tap. Now getting into kegging is tough because kegerators costs a lot and you have to be somewhat knowledgeable to make your own. Well I went out and bought from costco a single tap danby kegerator...

Looks like hop/yeast. Some more time and that will drop

Theres really nothing wrong with just using a primary. I would toss the nibs in and skip the chocolate extract.

Dude...use the thread search button. Your asking questions that have been answered already. I literally answer this question less than a page ago

Let me know how it goes. I really enjoyed it and will be making again this winter. The carafa iii is really nice. You get chocolate flavors instead of roasty flavors.

Bitter with magnum? 1lb of roasted barley? 90 min mash and boil? Whirfloc? Why? Here is my choco peanut butter porter and it is dynamite. I use all natural chocolate flavors (3 to be exact) and 4oz of brewers best pb. Not worth it dealing with powder or all the fat that comes with peanuts

I forgot to mention that I twitter messaged the brewery and they said they use 1056 yeast and fresh blueberry juice. The juice I bought was damn expensive. I did 2L in secondary and after getting no flavor I dumped another liter into the keg with still no flavor and this was 100% pure juice. So...

The malt bill was perfect but I think I used like 3L of blueberry juice and there will little to no blueberry flavor. Next time I am gonna just gonna use a lot of lbs of frozen blueberries. Costco sell 4lb bags and ill probably use 2

I know what I want and have pictures for reference. I am looking for a logo I can put on labels and eventually make a banner or tap handles for a basement. Nothing is commerical, it is simply for my own house. Let me know price or if you wanna see my pics and quote me please let me know.

Imo if your sticking with the original recipe use s-05. If your gonna use marris otter and make it english based than use wyeast 1084. There is really no reason to use s-04. I just brewed it with maris otter and used 1084 and having one as we speak and its delicious

I really prefer carafa special iii over chocolate malt. Give mores actual chocolate flavor than roasty flavors. I also really like unsweetened cocoa powder in the boil, when the beer is xfered to the primary it's like a thick chocolate milk. My favourite park is the malt, powder and nibs are all...
