Ultra! Thanks for sharing!

I add my rolled (milled) specialty roasted malts at the end of the mash session at the top 3 inches in my cooler and I have an aluminum tray on top with knife slits in it so I do not get chanaling when I sparge. Works fine. I used to put them in a hop bag but it is a pain to clean, wash and...

Relax. Add more bourbon until it has 1 inch on top. I crush up my nibs for more exposure to alcohol. Age 5-7 days. Shake it every day if you wish. Pour the result in a coffee filter and collect nectar in a plastic cup. Put cup in freezer overnight. Scrape off any fat/oils on top, save the...

This gives you more hugging time!

Great points! Great attitude to brewing! It is what is on the inside that counts: clean and sanitized!

I thought that area was hit so bad it would take a spell to rebuild. We used to stay on Mustang Island at Pioneer rv resort. Relocating to Mission Texas this year from our igloo in Canada. Yes I travel with kegs!

Stellar idea for cards in holders! Thanks

I use wooden dowels attached to new wooden bungs on the four corners that a local brewery used in their kegs to identify their brand. The bungs are the size of a hockey puck. These work well if I need to clean under a keg and leave the others alone. I like the ease and cost of the solution...

I use milk crates found at Good will for 1.00. They are tough and stack.Perfect and safe. Handles in crates. Glad you did not get cut up.

I would take 10 and I would send you cash (US) from Canada if you would ship them to Texas In January where I winter. If that works let's connect.

Take a piece of dowel and cut a slit in it . Install a length if emery cloth in slit and install in drill. Back and forth action will get past the work hardened area. Patience. Good luck. If it was easy every brewer would do it!

GPP33...Any chance of posting or sending me your saison keeper recipe? Thanks

I also subscribe to the gentle bend camp. You never know if you want to sell it or use it for serving to the bottom again. Yes the stainless steel mesh works great. Good tip!

Thanks for tip on 1/4 of cake. Do you do anything special or just pour off yeast cake and use 1/4 of it after it settles?

This is how you should do it. Contact a diary supply company as they are taking in trade ins most of the time up here in Ontario, Canada. Failing that I have one for sale! You could use it and resell it.

Could you tell me how much biofine you use and actual method?

If it wasn't for mistakes I would not be here!

I would use a matt clear lacquer finish to protect it from rusting!

I take a plastic syringe and use an extacto knife and cut a x in the end so when you push down on the poppet and inject the sanitizer will go sideways with no splashes and clean the poppets. It also cleans out the dip tube. I do this every time I clean a keg and if I dry hop in the keg I...

The mash needs to be at a temperature range for conversion of starches to take place, You should be between 146 and 156 F to get the job done. Yes a little lower and higher can work but this is the sweet spot. I use 153 most of the time since 1971. You need a mentor! I am sure their are lots...
