Come Up And See Me Sometime - Duran Duran

You do not need a diacetyl rest. That is mainly for lager yeast. Any thing that is fermenting around 62-65 is already warm enough.

Most all recipes are set up for 70%. My system achieves between 78 and 82% so I am just ok with having a few higher gravity points than intended if I am using someone else's recipe. Ditto Yoop on the Hydro samples. I test at around 85º Also your brewing software should be able to make the temp...

Why Can't I Be You - The Cure

I have had a few of them from Central Market and they are wonderful!

4' of 3/16 at 12 psi STABILIZED (i.e. it is truly at 12 psi not just shaken from 30 to get it down to 12) at 36-38º at 2 foot height increase should be balanced. The 1st beer may have to be poured and set aside to chill the tap and beer lines in the tower. I have a feeling that changing the...

Moonage Daydream - David Bowie

Ditto the window unit. You can pick one up for about a hundred and at least your bedroom will be nice and cool. We had a main unit die a few years ago and ever since then I keep one around. In the summer it is an added bonus to put it in the garage for working on the cars/brewing.

Thank goodness mine stands for She Who Makes Beer Often!

Go Wild In The Country - Bow Wow Wow

Without seeing your system, sounds like you have a ton of incorrect posts. If you can get some photos up that will help drastically! If you are trying to get the disconnect onto the wrong type of post that could easily explain your flow problems as the poppet valve may not be getting correctly...

Go! - Tones On Tails

Either I need more info or you need to do the calculations. Exactly how long is your line, exactly what ID is your line, exactly how high over the keg do you serve? Regulator Pressure = (Length of Beer Line in Feet x Resistance of beer line) + (Heights of tap above kegs x 0.5)

Also look at most automotive supply shops. Most carry SS for fender washers.

Damn I miss UO.

As far as taste goes, kegging should not change it much at all so I must assume that either too much trub is being racked into the keg or the beer is still green. For foam though, you need to ensure you have a properly balanced system.This is a very easy yet often time ignored first step in...

I have never seen a keg sold without dip tubes or poppet valves. As long as you have a gas tank with a regulator, all you will need are grey gas connections and black liquid connections assuming that you bought Pepsi style Ball Lock kegs.Tubing and some form of tap be it picnic tap, chrome or...
