First a little about the space. The basement is about 700 square feet, and was originally all one room. The idea is to have a multipurpose room that will house my three hobbies, brewing, woodworking and home theater. Here is a Sketchup of the what I hope the final product will be. So far...

I was wondering the same thing when I traveled with a couple kegs to a family reunion back on Labor day weekend. In summary, took them out of the kegorator, they warmed up on the drive. Iced them down when we arrived and poured just fine when cold. I had to keep telling myself what I'd read...

I have two of the stout faucets made by Krome, and they exhibit the same behavior. I haven't found a way to stop the drip, I think it is just beer left between the valve and the tip. For the last few months I've kept Star San and paper towels near the kegerator, and I just hold a paper...

Here's my version, setup for pin-lock kegs. I followed the examples previously given and cut off the nozzle end of the sprayer. I trimmed the shape down with a razor blade so that it was more cylindrical than cone shaped. I tried to force it on and use the pin-lock post to thread it without...

I like you're control panel, looks like what I am building for my ebiab setup. I love the look of Kal's setup, but I want to find a balance between having enough control (switches) and information (lights) to be safe and effective which going too far overboard. Can you give some info on the...

Congrats on your success :mug: I'm a new brewer as well and I've been a little snakebit as well. My first batch was done at a BOP / LHBS and it came out nicely. Since then I've done a Amber/Belgian that ended up with a twang at the finish, perhaps from chloromine (sp?) since I hadn't...

Thanks man, I can handle screwing up, just not giving up. Lucky for me my new kettle arrived today so the itch to brew is strong.

I did my first all grain batch, third overall using EdWort's HPA recipe. Hit numbers, used plenty of star san. Or so I thought. Took a gravity reading last Sunday, 1 week in primary. OG of 1.042, reading was at 1.010. Fermentation had occurred, but there were bubbles on the top, strange...

Looks like a great design to me:mug:. I just order an 80 quart pot with strainer and I'm looking to build a similar rig. I hadn't thought of the counter-top area next to the kettle since I was going for a minimal footprint, but seeing it on your design I think I'll have to add it. Having a...

Just back from a three stop circuit that ended in success. H&K Fire Protection guy was really nice, but his CO2 pump was down for repairs so no luck there. He referred me to Roberts Oxygen which only offered to exchange. Since I just got a brand new tank, I was about to do that. They did...

Please send a code, thanks.

That's what I was hoping to hear. Thanks very much!

Hey All, I did my first brew at home (one previous brew-on-premises at LHBS) and I think I did well and had a couple of questions. The brew is a Fat Tire Amber Ale clone, my LHBS was kind enough to provide the recipe and help me get it together. It was an extract brew with specialty grains...

Thanks very much for posting this up. I am about to order my first co2 tank and needed a place to refill. :rockin:
