Yep, no problem with it at all. I do it all the time. If the spigot is mounted a bit high you will leave beer behind. If too low just drain the first yeast filled runnings into a dump bucket. Buckets scratch easily so use no more abrasive than a towel to clean them. Spigots will fail after...

You are looking for a flow totalizer. Mcmaster's cheapest one is $90. Part# 4041K21. Plus you will need some fittings.

I use the 15 for 5 gal batches and have to fill it twice for most beers. Storage is not a problem and I'm in a 970 sq. ft. apt. I think the 7 would be a PITA for most of my beers. I say keep the 15 don't look back. And a cordless drill will likely not have enough balls for this mill at a...

Yeah at least in the beer homebrewing world, usually our beers are under 1.10 so two digits does fine.

It's funny. More people than you think are actually "cool". Prost!

Yeah, "Finished at oh five" would be accurate.

You mean ferment with your feet instead of yeast...

I shipped through UPS once and a package broke. To make this even better I used out shipping department at my company due to the huge discount we receive. It was part of a beer swap and as such contained a nice letter with a "Hi, how ya doin?" followed by an explanation and recipes of the...

Wuzzup from da Wesside (Hilliard)! Good to have you on board!

'Ey, Forgedaboutit! :) Man do I miss that NYC food! Welcome to the forums!

Odds are that was a sticking OPD (Overflow Prevention Device) on the connector, rather than the regulator itself. OPDs are required on many consumer applications. Basically a little SS ball, a spring, and a few gas passages. A little condensation in there and the ball refuses to drop out the...

From the Vine it is. I try to stop there when I head up to Delaware. I have had it in NY and I remember it was much cheaper - around $8. Odd, something in NY is cheaper than OH.

Here in Cbus OH the 120 is about 1 dollar per oz. when the local beer store even has it, which I have never witnessed myself. Have had the beer before (years ago), loved it. I would be interested in a recipe for this beer - possibly in a 2 gal batch. I'd think an OG of around 1.13 would be...

You can roast following the procedure above. Different temps, times, and moisture content give different malts. The show stopper for you is that after roasting, the grains should be left out for about 2 weeks to "mellow" and de-bitter a bit.

Welcome to brewing and the forum, fellow Ohioan. You'll find an extract hefe is about the easiest beer there is to brew! PROST!

Very cool. That sounds like a great project to do with friends. Are you planning on using the barrell again or is it "done"? I will comment on the hydrometer reading. In barrels you can't get an accurate reading via hydrometer because the barrel adds an undetermined amount of alcohol which...

As long as you are not dumping buckets off the ground into your brewpot, I wouldn't worry about a few snowflakes. Many of my beers are topped off with a drop or 2 of melted snow.
