    1-Gallon Brewers UNITE!

    I put a piece of racking tube in the inside of the pick up spout. The tube drops to the bottom of my beverage dispenser toward the back. I wedge it forward when I rack into it and allow it to settle with anything I picked up racking falling to the bottom in the front then take the wedge out so...

    Ever brew with sugar maple sap?

    I have brewed a few times with maple sap. I usually use twice the amount of sap as I would water boil down like making syrup and then use to brew. Does give a different flavor to the pale ale I make. Little earthy maple notes.

    Possible to make a 2+ tower kegerator from 5l mini-kegs?

    It held up to regular serving psi usually 10 to 12. The white fittings are quick connects 1/4" I think. They sell them for gas but they work for liquid as well. I had them so I could take the tap put and clean it. They are on the gas side as well.

    Adding a draft tower to a mini fridge question

    Cut the plastic inside the fridge on the top. Then carefully scrape out the insulation. Then you will see if there is a line and can drill a smaller hole than the one you cut inside. That is what I did with my a mini fridge. I had to put the tubes to one side so they would be away from the...

    I use to have a small kegerator that I had a 5L in as well as cornies. Could have easily used all 5L's.

    Buy a carbonator cap or build one using stainless steel tire stems in the soda cap. You can find directions by searching DIY carbonator caps. A couple of other options come up as well.

Not leaking at all and I did not put a lot of tape on. I may pick up another so I can have one that hooks up to my...

    Why Not Start Home Brewing w/ All Grain Method?

    I did the progression, extract to all grain. Glad I did now because I have a limited number of days I can brew. I brew two different batches on brew day. one all grain and one extract while I finish getting the first into the fermenter and clean up my mash tun, I make a quick extract beer.

    Show us your Kegerator

    My old dorm fridge kegerator died so I picked up a small Chest freezer and made a 3 1/2 keg kegerator. The one with the bear is rootbeer for the kids. I am planning to put a dowel in front of the taps as a lock later. http://share.shutterfly.com/action/welcome?sid=1AZOWrRw4csnOQ
