    Getting Started Kegging

    Don't skimp on the regulator. I went through this, having some nice looking regs but they haven't been accurate/consistent and failed early. Pay the $90 and get a Taprite with an o-ring seal.

    Amylase Enzyme Question.....

    I didn’t have high hopes for this but it appears to be working. Added a tsp of amylase powder to the fermenter (10gallons) on 1/12. Tilt had been at .012 for two weeks, went up to .013 on day 2, now day 7 pressure has risen 6psi and it’s reading .010.

    Amylase Enzyme Question.....
