    keg connection.com

    I ordered during their cyber Monday sale. Fast shipping, especially considering the volume of orders they had. Everything seems to be in good shape - plus you get free set of O-rings. I would give the keg a good wash as mine still had soda smell in it. A thorough cleaning, plus changing out the...

    Cheap Chest Freezers (Detroit area)

    Just thought I'd drop a quick note on a potentially great deal on a 9cu ft. freezer. I was at Lowe's in Canton tonight (on Ford Road), checking out dimensions of freezers to build a keezer. I came across 2 open-box, damaged units on sale for $75. It looks like it's only sheet metal damage and...

    Keezer installation brainstorming

    I am still in the beginning process of getting my keezer setup. In fact, haven't even bought a freezer yet, but I am trying to figure out the best way to do my setup. My scenario is as follows: I want taps mounted on the wall behind the bar. The other side of this wall is an unfinished...

    My New Keezer...

    That looks great! What is the model of that freezer? Is it this one: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Frigidaire+-+5.0+Cu.+Ft.+Chest+Freezer+-+White/9756985.p?id=1218202122611&skuId=9756985

    Dead space with batch sprage with SS braid

    I tried searching for my answer, but to no avail. It seems to me that the general method for dead space calculation (fill up, then drain, and count what's left) is only suited to using a false bottom - where there is truly dead space (i.e. nothing but liquid). For those that batch sparge...

    Beer lines in stadiums

    This isn't entirely applicable to homebrew, more of a curiosity: Ford Field (and I'm sure many other stadiums) have a central keg room and then has lines from there going to all the different concession stands, etc. What techniques do they use to keep the systems balanced? I admit I am...

    3 Gallon or 5 Gallon Keg?

    Thanks for the tip on AIH for kegs. I always make the trip there for ingredients and equipment - great store. Would something like this be a good setup: http://www.homebrewing.org/Homebrew-Kegging-System_p_69.html The other setup I was looking at was...

    Wallpaper tray >23-inch in Vancouver, BC?

    Did you check all those places online, or did you check in person too? A lot of odds and ends like that they won't list online. Wallpaper tray are fantastic for sanitizing all those random long objects, spoons, tubing, etc. Are there any paint supply stores around? People still use wallpaper...

    Do I need a bigger brewpot to go AG?

    Sam's Club occasionally has 30 quart pots that you could use. Personally I love using a converted keg. It is plenty big enough for a 5 gallon batch with no fear of boil over. It also fits perfectly on the propane burner. The downside is it has a lot of surface area so I boil off a lot - I...

    3 Gallon or 5 Gallon Keg?

    My dad and I typically brew together and now I am considering getting into kegging. Problem is we live separately and I don't have room or money for kegging at my house. So for a typical batch we will end up bottling 2 gallons and then keg the remaining 3 gallons. I am debating between...

    Cheap & Easy 10 Gallon Rubbermaid MLT Conversion

    I just assembled this and so far so good. It is in the tub now doing a leak test, but seems to have no leaks. Everything is pretty tight, except I can still twist the whole assembly. If it ends up leaking then maybe I'll wrench on it a bit more, or perhaps add a 4th outside washer. I got...
