    Speidel Plastic Tanks

    When I sanitize the fermenter I drain some of the sanitizer liquid out through the spigot. I also sanitize the spigot before sanitizing the fermenter (over kill ???) then I sanitize the outside of the spigot and cover with sanitized tin foil. When bottling time comes I resanitize the outside...

    Speidel Plastic Tanks

    What I do is boil up some bottling sugar water/beer, cool it down and then add the 'correct' amount of liquid to each 2L plastic bottle that I use for my beer. So far so good...........

    Speidel Plastic Tanks

    The alert does work a year later. My guess is that the remaining stock went so fast there was not a chance for the alert to kick out to everyone. Just a guess. Over several months I hit the alert me button and shure enough this week I was alerted with multiple alert emails as to the stock...

    Speidel Plastic Tanks

    I have not found this to be a problem in almost a year of use. A little soaking and a nylon scrub pad have done the job......several batches didn't even require soaking. Your mileage may vary!

    Speidel Plastic Tanks

    Just got informed by Morebeer that these are back in stock. It was a long wait (6 or 7 months) so when they state..... once the stock on hand is depleted they are gone for a LONG time, take them at their word. It isn't some kind of marketing spiel. I purchased one last summer and once it...

    Mr Beer - Read all about it and ask questions

    Its amazing what a couple of extra weeks of conditioning can do for an over sweetened/carbonated batch. I have seen a complete turnaround of results once the added time was allowed. On some occasions I was short of drinkable home brew so just had to have some. I blended the too sweet with...

    I like the 1 Ltr. PET bottles. Takes a smaller number of bottles to bottle up a batch and no capping required. I most generally drink more than a single 12oz bottle or 2 at a time anyway. Over a couple of days an opened bottle doesn't seem to go flat and remains at least partially carbonated...

    I think they list the Cowboy as a 'lager' although it uses the same Ale yeast as the other starter kits and is not fermented at the colder temps that most 'true' lagers and lager yeast seem to require. That cleanser should not be a problem taste wise especially if you let the bottles air dry...
