Water, temperature control, and oxidation control are all good suggestions. Making yeast starters can also greatly improve your beer. Proper pitch rate helps a lot.

I don't know that this has anything to do with your possible oxidation issue, but it will get you better results using a beergun.

Pm'd you about this discussion on beergun use. It may help. https://www.homebrewtalk.com/showthread.php?p=7624900

Can you explain your beergun procedure a bit more? Why are you dialing it down to 7 psi? I had to mess with my beergun quite a bit to get it right. I don't can, so I got nothing there.

I know this is old, but did you ever fix the issue?

Several tri-clamp fittings. I have 4 - 1" npt female to 1.5" tri-clamp. 8 - 1" npt male to 1.5" tri-clamp. And 8 - 1.5" clamps. All are new. $5 each plus shipping. Or $75 plus shipping for everything and I'll include a dozen or so new gaskets.

I have a blichman beergun that I don't use. Connection kit will be included (not pictured). $40 plus shipping (PayPal friends and family or you cover fee).

It's easy to keg, but there IS a learning curve. The biggest issue is usually foamy and under carbonated beer. The cause of this is bad information about beer line lengths given to people that are just starting off kegging. Many people buy kegging kits, or piece them together, and start with 5 -...

I'm in it

Here's what's been working well. Primary fermentation for about a week to 10 days. Raise temp for diacetyl rest for a few days. Transfer to keg. Lower temp for lagering and lager for 2 to 8 weeks (while carbonating). Inject gelatin solution into keg through gas post and let sit for a few days...

Or did I???

To speed it up even more, you could add a 2nd spigot to your bottling bucket. Then attach a bottle filler wand to each spigot (with a 1" piece of racking tubing) and fill 2 at a time. Hand them to your capper and fill the next 2.

This would be the line length calculator you want to use. The 14 ft mentioned above is probably going to get you close.

Dammit. I watched most of it too. Kinda want a wooden bucket now. Be really cool to make one, but...

That's awesome, and that pretty much sums up beagles' personalities to a tee.

Guess it depends on what "Mexican beer taste" you're talking about. I don't consider skunky/light stricken flavor to correlate to Mexican beer. I almost find it hard to believe that anyone is purposely skunking their beer. More of a clear bottle and storage/transport temperature issue would be...

Looks like they are going for around $50 on here. $50 plus shipping

Well, the lot is now just 8 clamps (w/gaskets), and the random NPT to tri clamp fittings. I could do the 8 clamps with gaskets shipped for $40. I'm not sure what use the npt to tri clamp fittings would be unless you're making some large hoses or something. If you want those, add another $15...

*update: most everything has been sold. All that's left is about 8 tri clamp clamps. Those are going for $5 each plus shipping.
