    What's your favorite "I need it fast" beer?

    I just upgraded to a 6 tap system. (from 3)and I want to get a few fast beers in there. Any suggestions? I was figuring a cream ale would be one of them. So I know you can't rush perfection... But I just want a few fill in beers that have been brewed and turned out good with a short window...

    First AG - not enough volume!

    ok a question I have after reading this. If you are boiling at say 75% power(propane burner)and then notice you need to boil off some Extra to get in your SG. Will cranking up to 100% power make you evaporate more in than at 75%?

    Does CO2 go bad?

    being fine or not. I think your problem will come when the tank is empty. Refilling or exchanging it might be a problem. I think it was 10 years and they won't refill or Exchange it. I think you can get it inspected. My first tank was older. Pefrect shape though. The guy exchanged it no...

    Electrical Question:Wiring What gauge/breaker.

    I'm going to run a dedicated line for 2 kegerators next to each other. They are small fridges. But i want a seperate breaker. So with that being said, what size breaker should i put them on and what gauge wire? I figure standard wires would be fine since that's all that will be on there. 2...

    Oxygen bottle Vs Air pump

    I am new to the O2 tanks and stones. But I think the idea is to out many small bubbles instead of large ones from not having a stone. There's more surface area to 1,000 Tiny bubbles compared to 1 large bubble with no stone. I Think that was the idea

    Funny Call From the Shipping Room

    re-racking on yeast cake

    I've done it once with excellent results. I plan to do it again after this batch. I Think with alittle prep work would need to be done so you don't end up with similar beers. Like I mostly have dark beers in tap now. I didn't mix it up

    Michigan Brewpub Article

    Some of those comments were from another brewer also. But yes he did Sound bad with Cutting down what he was just 4 months before the article was written. I'm sure homebrewers make up more than 1/2 of 1% of his business.

    FermcapS rock!!! Pic

    I used it the first time last week. worked great with 2 Per gallon in a turkey fryer. Flame on max once I got the rolling boil low enough from the top to not spill over. It was the rolling boil not the foaming up that I had to watch. put alittle to much in the pot.
