Welcome! Kegging is so much easier than bottling. Nothing to worry about at all. Just check all your connections by either submersing them in water or spaying with soapy water. It really sucks hooking up a keg and checking on it a few days later to find an empty co2 tank.

I can't believe 3 year old yeast worked. Impressive! And welcome back!

Lol, good to know. Did you use any potassium sorbate or just rely on the cold temp to prevent fermentation?

Yes it was pineapple extract. I did both because the pineapple sweetness fermented out and all that was left was the citric bitterness. So I added the extract to try and add back some of the flavor I was looking for.

Tried brewing a pineapple wheat using pineapple puree in secondary with a 3 day dry hop of mosaic and amarillo and added about 2.5 fl oz extract (in 5 gal batch) at kegging. Getting a very predominant chemical taste from the extract. Drinkable but not really enjoyable. Plus there is no way I'll...

It’s been a couple years since I rolled but I still have my favorite pally, my good dice, and all the manuals in my desk drawer.

Couple more I made last night. A Cylon raider for my Fracked Up Lemonade and dice for my Dungeon Crawler Marzen.

5 gal tropical ipa + 5 gal pineapple wheat + 6666= 6676

Welcome to the forum! If you are looking for constructive criticism I might recommend looking into local homebrew clubs around your area. They are a great resource and usually a lot of fun.

Thanks. It was a letter opener. I glued the sword to the hand and attached a ferrule. I have a few more nerdy knick-knacks I'm going to be turning into tap handles in the next couple weeks when I find time.

Next time have him make it with a thick solid bottom and attach a ferrule instead of 3d printing the threads. I have a friend printing me a Death Star and Totoro.

I would recommend going with a fermentation fridge and getting a keezer later on. For less than $40 you can improve your beer quality, make any style of beer you want year round, and easily replicate your successful recipes with the same temp schedules. As for making a kegerator/keezer, the...

Greetings from Washington!

Welcome to the forum! Brewing always finds a way. I'm sure you will be drinking your own beer in no time.

Workers in Songs. A surprisingly good Americana band from Denmark.

Welcome to the hobby and the forum. Please give my condolences to your wallet.

Very nicely done! Looks very clean and has an old dark noir look to it. I'm usually not the biggest fan of the steampunk genre (cyberpunk is more my style) but I really dig what you have done.

Here are my 3 current handles. I’m going to be making more soon.

It's a recipe I found and liked the the reviews of. It was described as an IPA for those who do not really like IPA's. Being someone who is not a big fan of them, I figured I would give it a go. The mosaic hops should give it some fruity notes and I hoped the "hop forward" yeast would enhance...

And as a fairly new brewer, talking about the technical side of yeast strains, their origins, and where they are going, is above and beyond the scope of my experience and/or interest at this point. That is why I wanted to ask people what they are doing/planning to do with this yeast rather than...
