    Blonde Ale Centennial Blonde (Simple 4% All Grain, 5 & 10 Gall)

    When I bottle carb I wait three weeks before I put them in the fridge. Ten days is a bit impatient, IMHO.

    New York beers to try

    Go to Other Half Brewery in Brooklyn and buy every canned IPA on offer that day.

    Finally got a tower

    Sheet metal screws sound like a good idea I hadn't considered. Still waiting for my tower to show up today [sigh]

    Finally got a tower

    It looks like you are a few days ahead of me. My two tap tower from Williams should arrive today. Are there any issues connecting the tower to the top of the fridge. My fridge (and it looks like yours does too) has a thin metal layer, a bunch of insulation, and another thin metal layer. Do I...

    Flow Control and Line Length

    I will use a fan to direct cold air to the tower.

    Flow Control and Line Length

    The short version seems to be that no one pays much attention to line length with flow control. I'll try it that way first.

    Flow Control and Line Length

    Anyone?

    Flow Control and Line Length

    I am about ready to make the move from picnic taps and kegs in a chest freezer to a two tap tower on an old mini-fridge. I've ordered an Intertap double flow-control tower. Does the presence of flow control alter the equation for serving line length? I have the impression that serving line...

    Frozen Beer

    I froze a keg of ale recently and was convinced it was ruined. It was fine.

    Shouldn't BOTH gauges read zero when empty?

    How does the gauge cover come off? I poked at mine for a little while and did not find an obvious method. No doubt there is one, but not for me.

    Shouldn't BOTH gauges read zero when empty?

    Removing the regulator changed nothing. It looks like maybe the face of the dial is uneven and the tip of the needle is contacting the surface.

    Shouldn't BOTH gauges read zero when empty?

    D'oh! They typically do remove and replace it for me, but if it is coming off regardless I may as well try that myself. I am likely to leave the gauge in place on the regulator regardless.

    Shouldn't BOTH gauges read zero when empty?

    I got a lot of beer out of this tank, so that is OK. I guess I will wait and see what it reads when full.

    Shouldn't BOTH gauges read zero when empty?

    I take this to mean that both bottom out, not both behave like mine. I've had both bottom out in the past few times my tanks were empty. Is there some other explanation for this?

    Shouldn't BOTH gauges read zero when empty?

    I am sure that I opened the regulator. I would rather not remove the regulator from the tank. My early days with CO2 involved way too many leaks in way too many places and I don't want to recreate one of those leaks if I can help it. I'll be driving by the place that fills my tanks tomorrow...

    Shouldn't BOTH gauges read zero when empty?

    My five pound CO2 tank is empty. When I disconnect everything but the gauges and then open everything up, nothing comes out. However, my high-pressure gauge reads 400 while the low-pressure gauge reads zero. Is something wrong with my high-pressure gauge?

    has anyone tried donating a how to brew day to a school auction?

    CodeSection, I think you are completely right and I was completely wrong. I was a bit buzzed when I first brought this up last night, and I think I was just being stubborn when I stuck by my guns this morning. The auction would be for a brew day, complete with ingredients. It is doubtless...

    has anyone tried donating a how to brew day to a school auction?

    You may not be selling anything, but the school is. What they are selling is not a licensed product. Somebody winds up paying money for someone else's homebrew.

    has anyone tried donating a how to brew day to a school auction?

    Don't wanna be a spoilsport, but is this legal? When you get right down to it, you are brewing and selling beer, and then donating the proceeds to charity. But you are still brewing and selling beer, and you do not have a license to do that.

    Crap kids say

    Took my four year old daughter to an art fair. On entering the booth of the first artist she reported: "This isn't art. It's scribbling."
