I went to the Green Growler in Croton but purchased most from Midwest online. even with shipping still cheaper… Who do you use?

Hi Rick, yes Carmel is a hop and a skip from here. I just finished brewing up my first beer the other day, I have the Keezer project moving forward so I think Im in good shape for now. This site is a wealth of information!!! Thank you all

I finally received the MicroMatic gauge in the mail, hooked it up to the CO2 and pressurized a bottle of water into seltzer. Wow this is going to be nice. I can't wait to get the rest of the stuff I need. Having a little bit of a shortage of $$ so I have to wait to get the next wave of...

Thank you Dan, that link was GREAT! So I went back downstairs and pulled this thermostat out, pulled off the tape in search of a set screw of some sorts… I did find a hole at the 12 o clock position on picture num 2 with a small regular screw inside the dial part of the switch, do you...

Has anyone ever used one of these? http://www.ebay.com/itm/Temperature-Controller-Thermostat-Keg-Beer-Tap-Kegerator-Keezer-Chest-Freezer-/110814186665?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item19cd0a4ca9#ht_1788wt_840

Ok thanks for the info there, I thought I read somewhere on here that the CO2 shouldn't be refrigerated or kept cold. I do have pleanty of room inside and it would be safer in there too. I didn't see a set screw on the back side of the thermostat? Any other ideas? Thanks

Hi all, I have a 4 foot Frigidaire chest freezer that I wanted to convert into a Keezer. My first dilemma is how do I get the temp up so my kegs don't freeze. Right now when its plugged in, the warmest I can get it is 10 degrees above zero. It does have a thermostat on the bottom but...

JLem, I'm taking the temp reading from the stick on thermometer thats on the bucket. Its currently 66 on the bucket. The room temp is reading 68. I can close the bedroom door and I will drop the temp by 5 degrees easily without moving it at all. Thanks again for the words of wisdom...:mug:

JLem, Thanks for the help, Im using Wyeast 2565 Kolsch. Last night it was bubbling away about 1 every second. Its slowed a little now to one every 1 1/2 -2 seconds. Its about 65-66 degrees where it is now. How long should it sit in the initial fermentation bucket, 1-2 weeks? The...

Wow what a deal, I just spent 65 on a set of gauges ALONE…Im feeling like I got banged.

I have been surfing here in NY for something similar, I think you did GREAT! :mug:

I moved it earlier this morning to a room that holds 65 degrees steady, Im happy to say its bubbling away… VERY exciting! Now do I leave it here… or move it back to the cold basement at 55 degrees?

Thanks for the advice there, i just pulled out the package of yeast and re read it. You are right, it says maintain in 65-70F until fermentation is evident. I just moved it very carefully back into 65-70. Do you think this may give it more of a lag to start fermenting? If so how long should the...

Ok so today I made up my first batch of beer, it took me about 3 1/2 hours as I went slow and tried not to screw it up too bad. It all started out well, I had boiled 3 gallons of water the night before and I had that ready. I started out by cleaning everything and I made up a solution of...

I will have to give them another call today as she said. I think that if the items were in stock, it SHOULD of been processed and shipped within 3 days. That is reasonable to me. A week is way too long. I may just cancel the order...

HI all, Im just wondering how Midwest Supplies are for ordering….Supplies of course??? The reason I ask is that I ordered from them last Friday Feb 3 and every product that I ordered "said" it was in stock. As of now it still has not shipped? The shipping fee was a bit steep at $31.00 I...

Just DON'T light a match...:drunk:

Ok so here is where I'm at… :mug:

Wow thats really cool! I like that idea!!! So go with the single like this http://www.micromatic.com/draft-keg-beer/regulators-pid-642.html Then when Im ready get the Taprite secondary with individual pressure adjustments… SO how does the Taprite compare to the Micro matic or this...

Wow that looks amazing...:rockin:
