*snip* I purchased a Muntons connoisseurs wheat beer kit. *snip*The label on the side of the can says that I should add sugar or spray dried malt extract. *snip* I have 2 Mr Beer kegs to use if I need it. *snip* What is the best way to use the Muntons, should I buy something else?*snip* Jason...

Nice... Placed an order. Thank you for sharing free ship info!

Welcome! Williamsport... I think of Little League, Shop-Vac & the Sunset Dairy :cross: Ice Cream.

Yes... But when filling a CO2 tank you fill liquid not gas. Most tanks are not syphon tube cylinders so you would need turn the 50lb tank upside down to get the liquid CO2. A scale to make sure you do not overfill your tank. Safety equipment, liquid CO2 is a freeze hazard. High pressure...

You'll be fine... Just have a big stick or a baseball bat handy, just in case.

+1 on the dremel tool It sound like the bit has work hardened the stainless. Grind through the thin work hardened layer and try a fresh drill bit.

very nice! I mounted my controller where the factory control used to be. Then ran the temperature senser though a hole I drilled at the hinge area. My setup is; no collar, I open the lid on the keezer and dispense with picnic taps, good but... At first i had the senser too high in the...

Is it better to stand them up or can I lay them down while they are carbing? No difference, if given enough time. Though laying them down would create a larger surface area in contact with the CO2, so the CO2 maybe would be absorbed slightly faster.

Looks great! What was the $12 thermostat replacement? That is cheap.

It sounds like the pin in the black plastic quick disconnect has broken off and there is nothing to depresses the poppit in the liquid out post. You can buy parts for the disconnects, but buy a brand new one for about $6.

H'mmm that's a bummer. Maybe you need to passivate the stainless steel? Stainless steel quality / purity is not what it used to be. Some of the chinese stainless has terrible metallurgy, some seem spot-on perfect.

Sounds fine to me. A couple of years ago, a cider with rasins I brewed fermented for over a month. I couldn't believe how strong and long, it just kept bubbling. It turned out to be a great batch of cider.

Just did a search for CO2 around Rochester, NY Sept. 21, 2012. May not be accurate, list is in no order and its not a complete list. CO2 Refills: 1. Monroe Extinguisher Company (city, by far the best prices on CO2) 2. Southtown Beverages Drive-Thru (Henrietta) CO2 Tank Exchange: 1. Danes...

Would a soft rubber hose whip around and end up sraying the complete insides?

I throw the muslin bag in the sanitizer, soak it , squeeze out most of the liquid , fill with hops , tie a knot , toss into the beer.

I'm a big fan of Nottingham. Fast, settles out nice, firm trub layer. My most used yeast. :mug:

Absorbing information, adding it to what I think I'll do with my jockey box. Thank you very much.

starrfish, Was your old jockey box with beer line a 5/16"ID x 35' beer line? What were some of the factors that influenced your choice of the 5/16"OD x 50 feet coil? Regards, John I am going to be building a jockey box with S.S. coils. My plan was 3/8"OD x 50 feet coil (for low...

Hello back from USA! :)

Howdy all, My wife and I have been brewing for a few years, having lots of fun. Researching and building a couple of jockey boxes so... Searching the internet I read a bunch here, liked the people and information at home brew talk and thought I'd join up.
