    Cold winter frozen kegs....Christmas lights?

    right. I live in a very old house 100+ years so i don't even think that a fridge would fit down the stairs into the basement. Crap! there's has to be something i can do. Maybe the best think is to fill a growler every so often and keep that in the fridge......(the fridge in my kitchen not the...

    Cold winter frozen kegs....Christmas lights?

    Cold winter frozen kegs....Christmas lights?

    So i went out a few days ago to my detached/uninsulated garage and found that my kegs had turned to slush. I just got done building a single tier brew stand so I don't want to spend any money to keep the fridge warm in the winter months. I have no temp controller. What about plugging in some...

    BG12 burner jet/orifice

    Look at post #6. I have the same set up. Not to be argue but I took the burner into Menards and fitted it with an 1/8" male fitting directly into the burner. And have used the burners with those 1/8" fittings. I didn't have good results but there was certainly no leak...

    BG12 burner jet/orifice

    That's what I saw too. I thought it would be easiest to go to the manufacture website but that is not correct. The link you gave me the fitting has 1/4" male threads. My burner has 1/8" female threads..... So i will need 1/8" male threads...rite? Seems like the morebeer products might be the...

    BG12 burner jet/orifice

    I brewed last night for the first time on my new single tier setup. Well it didn't go so hot..... I had a tall/wide yellow sooty flame and couldn't heat anything like I thought. Not even boil! I am running brand new BG12 low pressure burners. The burners did not come with the jet, there...

    Another DIY False Bottom Question

    I'm in the mitts of building a single tier brew stand. 3 kegs, 3 burners, and 1 pump. I have the tops cut off my kegs and I'm in the middle of drilling holes for the outlet valves. I'm looking for a good cheap diy option for a false bottom. I found in my kitchen a collapsible vegetable...

    Lid Blew Off

    haha... the mouse may have been passed out....Either way he's outside now. Yea fruit flies aren't a problem in my basement especially this time of year. Mice and a couple of spiders is what I'm dealing with but I didn't see any spiders near. If this beer does make it I should be able to come...

    Lid Blew Off

    All grain. 2 hearted IPA clone. OG - 1.060 Wyeast 1056 with a starter. I went down into my nasty basement this morning where I ferment (not brew) and my lid had blown off. It was laying on the floor and the bucket top was fully exposed. I did not check the beer for a day or so...it could...

    Victory Headwaters Clone???

    Ok guys I'm wondering if anyone has a Victory Headwaters clone recipe. I've only had it a couple times but man did I love it! I've only been brewing about 11 months and have about 11 brews to my name so I'd have no clue how to break down the beer and come up with a recipe. I'm looking for an...
