1. Use a beer/wine theif sanitize. their package says to and this is the short version. "sanitize drop the hydrometer in it take a reading dump beer back in pushing the little toggle on the bottom". I still have mine in the package and have not used it at all. I'm just a bit patient though and...

Why doesn't anyone use an aluminium pot?

Don't know if it's the "correct answer" but it worked for me. For the first time I kegged, did everything text book, carbed 24 hours at 30 shook then at 20 for another 24 hours. purged it set it to 10 psi and I had 90% head 10% beer for 3 days I delt with it finally I just turned the PSI down to...

Get a 5 gal carboy for your secondary. no need for it to be that big it will give you alot less to worry about.

Charge it with your CO2 and if you have a ball style with the relief valve you can charge it and relieve it at the same time to get the O2 out of there.

I asked this question awhile back but differently. https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f14/so-you-ruin-your-batch-beer-what-do-you-do-311892/ Some said that the hop flavor could effect it mostly. I say go for it try it out and let us know.

Wholly crap that is genius, simple easy, and you almost can't go wrong. heck I bet someone probably could probably make it work with a carboy as well. Imagine how much easier those would be to clean if someone made a disposable liner for carboys ferment, rack, and throw away the liner.

Strange my LHBS told me to use my bucket for my primary and for the secondary use a 5 gal glass carboy and not a 6 gal. I said well i was "thinking of using two glass carboys" and not a bucket he said don't waste your time or money. the glass is a PITA to clean unless you really want to use...

Wow what a long thread. Some pretty funny comments in here. There is really not much you can do about it other than keep doing what your doing. Either they will eventually get it or they won't. When the cops come just be prepared keep track of the officers names you have spoke with...

I could swear i've seen people also do conversions from what they have to the other. Does the pin lock style also have the relief similar to the ball lock style?

Awesome I'm remembering this one for future debates on my car forum thanks.

Anything in a Green bottle with one exception. Dos Equis for some crazy reason I'll drink it and not hate it.

Well now you have the excuse to brew another batch.

Nahhh just got used to using it. Wanted to be able to search for my posts quicker and easier. and on some forumZ it's easier on the eyes to read.

Just curious, when I brewed years ago this stuff wasn't around or available and everyone did just fine. now that I'm back into brewing it seems everyone is a Star sans NAZI. So I'm just curious, is there anyone out there who goes against the grain and refuses to use it and go with other...

For those interested I just saw this. I don't have the details of it other than what is posted below. 11th Annual Beer Festival on Saturday, May 19 from 2-6 at Towne Point Park in Norfolk

I'm curious about how this comes out if you have any that don't explode. But also why one Jalapeno and not a few more?

Kegged my Chimay Blue clone tonight.

well I just kegged mine tonight, I took a sample to the neighbor and he seemed to really like it. I told him it was completely flat and not carbonated and he said WOW I couldn't even tell. Final Gravity was 1.006. Not bad I don't think I compared the color to my bottles I brought back...

Can a mod delete this post as I redid my post and this is a mess up thank you
