    Yet Another Force Carbed, Spiced Ginger Ale

    Over carbonated and too citrusy... But great spice and nice ginger! Would add 1/2 cup more sugar, and cut the lemon in half... Still great, but will likely need some vodka soon...

    Yet Another Force Carbed, Spiced Ginger Ale

    I like extremely offensive ginger ale and this is my attempt at one... Toyed with adding serrano and lemmon grass, but this is my first try at a soda so better keep it mellow... 2.5 gal water 2 cups grated ginger (I smelled the three they had at the SE Asian market and picked the strongest...

    Keezer in basement, faucets in kitchen

    blo I was only able to do it because we plan on updating the kitchen next year. The bread box hide helped the negotiation. At 10 feet you need at least 4.5 psi just to get upstairs... I am running the Tank 7 and Blonde ale at 12 psi and the stout at 8. I needed low pressure drop lines so I...

    Keezer in basement, faucets in kitchen

    For sure... Need a couple finishing touches and that is one... Probably attach it to box with a magnet so it can be removed and washed.

    Keezer in basement, faucets in kitchen

    In the end, with a 40 deg keezer set point, the jockey box stays about 44, and pours beer... What else do you want? This was my first build and first time kegging... So I learned a bunch... I found this site a little too late, but thought I came up with some good solutions to the problems...

    Keezer in basement, faucets in kitchen

    And a shot of the forced air cooler... Muffin fan, 3" sewer pipe and 10' of copper tubing... This is mounted downstream of the pond pump... This is really required for this setup since the pump generates so much heat... At 40 in the keezer, the bucket is like 52...

    Keezer in basement, faucets in kitchen

    Painting the box with the obligatory beer in the foreground. Insulated, faucets installed and a shot of the 1/4" copper cooling coil. The new hotness in its place. And the view withdrawn... It is long enough to reach the sink for easy cleaning...

    Keezer in basement, faucets in kitchen

    Made a simple jockey box kinda gig that will be able to be hidden when SWMBO wants the party to stop... We will paint it black chalkboard, mount 4 Perlicks and a cooling coil in the box... More on the box next...

    Keezer in basement, faucets in kitchen

    Punched some holes in the floor (buddy doing the work)... And ran the 1/4" poly tubing through a 1.5" insulated abs pipe... 6 lines, 4 beer, 2 cooling. And ran them to a bread box kinda cabinet in the corner, above a lazy susan corner cabinet with the false back... Wrapped the whole gig...

    Keezer in basement, faucets in kitchen

    Per subject... We have a tiny house and a creepy basement... No good solutions for a pretty keezer... This is more proof of concept stuff. Started with a 75$ freezer and a 2x6 collar... And the obligatory beer sticker...

    Perlick Flow Control Issues... Help!

    No earth shattering results... I think the problem is two fold: The temperature is too high for this beer... I tried cranking the temp down to 35 and it has fewer issues. Too much temp dif between the bottom and the top... I put a fan in there and it seemed to help a bunch. BTW, thanks to all...

    Perlick Flow Control Issues... Help!

    Its the 545PC, the one with the adjustable flow restriction... it looks like a globe valve cage if you are familiar with those... Good point on the lower pressure... Of course... the keg is aready gone! I did not have it around long enough to get flat at 5 psi. I am keeping it around...
