I have an 8 oz jar of harvested slurry. I'm thinking of using just a teaspoon or two for a 1 gallon batch. Can I just seal the rest and go back to it when I brew a larger batch?

Now I'm wondering how much headspace to leave in my 5L mini keg. I understand 1" is normal for the cheap kind that have a flat top, but these kegs have a neck. Any tips? I'm naturally priming.

I bought one. Just wondering about what I can do to fit a 10L if I buy one. They won't fit with a ball lock in my fridge. Will have to get a picnic lid.

Back to the threaded lid...how big of a deal is it if I use the threaded lid when a mini keg is naturally priming and just switch to a dispenser when ready? We are talking a matter of a few seconds, and I wouldn't be pouring, so there can't be that much O2 exposure...no?

That's how it often ends up, right? We worry too much.

This isn't it? 1/4" 30 PSI Beer Tubing They have another size also.

A little off topic, but it turns out I'm going to be able to fit 10L kegs in my minifridge. I will have to use a picnic tap lid and attach gas tubing so the regulator attaches to a paintball tank on the bottom of the fridge, on the side of the keg. I can probably fit two, or 1 and a 5L, or put a...

Thanks. So you're saying if the regulator is at least attached to the dispenser that I linked earlier, it's closed shut?

Another question, since I'm getting close to bottling/kegging day. I have one of these: Premium Dispense Kit for Mancan style Mini-Kegs I'm not planning to force carbonate with the bulbs because that would be expensive, however, the problem is, if I simply put on this faucet-dispensing top, O2...

My mini fridge can fit two on the bottom upright, and two on a shelf on their side (all 5 liters, though I only own two right now). That's over 5 gallons of beer...not bad at all. I've been curious about whether I have to buy the dip tube from Williams Brewing (for the Kegland brand) or do...

Unfortunately I can't fit bigger mini kegs in my mini fridge. 10 L are too tall when you add the ball lock lid and fittings, and they won't fit lying on their side either. The 2.5 gal and smaller on AIH are 8.5" in diameter so they don't fit in my stupid mini fridge that decided to have a hump...

Definitely planning on picking up a few Kegland 5Ls; they appear to be quality kegs.

Went ahead and ordered a ball lock lid with the fittings and a picnic tap. Thanks fellas.

I bought a few 5 liter mini kegs, the more durable ones, not the cheap ones. I only have one tap dispenser. Can I prime the other with sugar and simply store it sealed with the threaded lid, or do I need to buy a ball lock lid adapter so that I just attach the regulator and tap to it and avoid...

I'll take your word for it fellas, but I'm gonna have to take another picture because I could make pancakes with the flour I make from this crush. I actually pour it in my bag outside to so the flour doesn't disperse all over the floor.

BIAB. Sorry about the pic. Thanks.

BIAB is awesome, which makes him awesome. May he rest in peace.

I've been using a corona mill for a handful of batches now. This is what I've set the mill's crush at. Think it's too much? Haven't checked efficiency. Was a little under OG on the last batch, but that was likely a matter of time (30 min mash).

Took a sample of my cream ale today...smell at first was awful (dead yeast cells?), but once in the flask it was lemony and limeish. Tastes good.

I've been thinking about kegging with 5L and wanted to know if a 2.7 cubic ft mini fridge would be large enough. 5L kegs on EBay seem to be around 6 in diameter and 10 inches tall, so I'd imagine...
