    Need help saving a strawberry blond

    I would probably go for a lactose over a splenda or maby k-Meta in sucrose? . Can't imagine that "diet" taste in a beer would be good. I mostly make lagers, this is my first try with an ale. Just dropped the berries at that point based on an instruction sheet. Gravity in the keg is...

    Tap handle making, stumped...

    i think these threaded adaptors are a bad idea. I think i can buy a threaded rod, Rip these threads out and glue the adaptor back in. threading two units together to true the hole?
