I've done a little searching and can't seem to find an answer to my question. I'm new to kegging and I'm looking at using dual regulators coming off the C02 tank. I'm wondering how setting different pressures work. Does the first regulator in line have to have a higher pressure setting than...

Quick question. I've never heard of or done a "hop stand". If I was to guess this is added after flame out when the wort cools to 170°. Is that correct or am I way off?

Thank you. I'll give this a try and see how it turns out.

Okay, I don't usually do this but I'm trying to come up with a recipe to use some hops I have on hand. I usually just throw some stuff together and see how it turns out. I thought I would post what I have as far as hops and my base grain to see if anyone has a good recipe for an IPA, Pale Ale or...

I can't seam to figure out where to find a pulley to motorize my grain mill. The cereal killer mill I believe has a 10mm shaft and I am having a heck of a time finding a 12" or so pulley with a 10mm bore to fit this mill. Does anyone have any information that would be helpful to finding what I...

I think that's pretty close. I can't find any kind of rating on the one I have so I don't know if it's a high pressure or low pressure regulator.

Could someone tell me if there was any reason I couldn't use a 2 way regulator with a shutoff valve at the end of each to run 2 separate burners (not at the same time)? Let me know if more info is needed. I've been searching for a while this morning and can't seem to find any info. Thank you...

I find this interesting. I've always waited at least three weeks before bottling even after checking FG (just a habit I guess), and I've always cracked one open after a week in the bottle to see how its going. Some have had slight to moderate carbonation but none have ever been fully carbonated...

So what are the opinions on running hot water though a dedicated filter before filling HLT? I use a home made filter system that uses a filter meant for showers and run all of my water through that before filling the tank. Something like this -...

That may be a very good alternative to getting an on demand water heater for the garage. Thank you.

Hmm, I'm going to have to try another one out of curiosity now. Stone IPA's are some of my favorite so this really took me by surprise. I wonder how the bottle could have been mishandled?

I had a Stone Double Bastard over the weekend that I found very hard to finish. I've had the Arrogant Bastard and many of their other beers and like them very well, but this one was not pleasant smelling or tasting. I'm wondering if I could have gotten a bad bottle (bomber).

Are you guys cleaning your equipment with cold water? That's been my biggest problem. How do I get hot water outside to clean with without running a hose from the kitchen sink or heating water on the burner. I think it's recommended to use PBW with water temps around 140° so I'm not sure how it...

My wife supports my obsession. She isn't a beer drinker herself but she is a pretty great wife to have and loves the fact that I get so much enjoyment out of it. I think she would like it a little more if the hobby wasn't overtaking our house as much as it has, but as long as I stay on top of...

I just wanted to say thank you for the great idea. I etched my kettle over the weekend and I'm very happy with the results. I'm never at a lack of something to do if I'm not brewing, keeping up with all of the DIY projects posted here!

I'm glad I'm not the only one that stores bottles on the windowsill until it gets full before washing.

One of my favorite threads ever! I love reading everyone's story. I've been brewing for almost a year now and I have used this site quite extensively for help in getting started, but I haven't really posted (this might be my first??) Anyways, I have a geology degree and I love to collect rocks...
