I've used windsor three times. One is currently waiting to be kegged. I really like it, but I am also using it with the lack of attenuation in mind. I've used it in a nut brown which all my friends have said is one of their favourite beers of mine, and I have used it in a hybrid porter stout...

Thanks for this. If I am understanding this correctly, I would need to ditch the $65 lid I bought for one of those with line and the tap at the end? If this is correct, then NB is selling a set up that doesn't work and is a waste of money?

that's super helpful, thank you. did you use 3/16" I.D. tubing? I think that's what came with it. It came very kinked and would not straighten out. Not sure if that plays a role in this too

ambient temp was 53.5, sat at what i think was 15 psi for several weeks, after sitting at 12 for a few weeks (with the shaking after purging o2)

perhaps this is the newbie in me. There isnt a line to a tap/faucet. Just the tubing inside the keg. I don't think there is supposed to a line for this set up

It’s a mini keg - party faucet set up

10” give or take

It’s the mini keg style. I used a mini co2 cartridge but I might try my full six tank. Or just prime it with sugar. This has been frustrating. Because it’s the mini keg it’s just the tube inside the keg that came with it. Everything should be the same temp (~53).

Yeah. It had ancho chilies in secondary for almost a month. I didn’t have a chance to bottle when I wanted and it got super dark as a result. Turned out better than I expected though I like the ancho more restrained that it is. Thanks for the link!

Ha. She actually encourages my purchases. I’m the one causing the restraint lol

I bought a 1-gallon keg to bring beer to dinners, etc. it seems to carbonate when it comes out of the keg. Almost too much foam. When I purge gas comes out. Even though the foam has stayed a bit the beer tastes basically entirely flat. It’s had weeks under pressure. Could it be the beer...

thanks everyone. I really appreciate it. I like the idea of the refractometer and smaller tubing through the bung but I'm also now being sold more on a tilt lol perhaps this the joy of brewing.

How does the Rapt Pill compare to a tilt?

Thanks a lot everyone!! I've looked at a few places and the sorachi ace is out so I have some time. I want to wait until I can find it, just haven't had a lot of time to check other suppliers

Sammy.. That's a good idea. How long are the pipettes? it doesn't eliminate all the problems but does some. I hate having to reach into my larger fermentors.

I am super new to kegging and am fumbling my way through this. For the 1 gal min keg. I recently bought one, did all the steps a couple times now and its not holding carbonation. The first time it was flat (waited for a few days at room temp). then tried again at fridge temperatures. was only...

If this recipe was that close, I think I'd like to use it as I have been wanting to brew a rice lager and experiment with different seaweeds in secondary. But I have 1/2 lbs of rice dme from brewing a bud light clone for a friend (obviously a GOOD friend). I can't find information on what that...

The only thing lost is the opportunity to brew another beer sooner lol Thanks for the responses. I mostly ferment in the plastic carboys so I don't want them sitting in there too long. I'm a pretty patient brewer now that I have a regular cycle going. Some questions that have popped up from...

Hey everyone. I am relatively new to brewing (about 20 beers brewed and 6 ciders); this is also my first time posting here. I hate taking gravity readings and I'm always worried about increasing the chances of infecting the beer (or wasting it in a small 1 g batch). I use a combination of 1...
