I have a new to me sanyo minifridge kegerator. My current setup is with an Inkbird 308 set to 38*f with a 3*f differential. The temperature probe is taped to a 1L seltzer bottle covered by about 3 in of foam on that side...sitting next to the co2 tank on the compressor hump (probe facing the...

Yeah - it was full, I mean I overflowed it not paying attention and had to pour some out just to be able to put the lid on. So, now that I think about it, that makes sense that hardly anything has happened in a week....it's entirely possible that the gas diptube may have been in the beer as...

So this second keg that I have done, I decided to do the set and forget method for carbing. It's an american wheat, the keg was filled to the brim, temp controller set to 38*f. I set my regulator to 11psi for 7 days. Pulled off a pint today, no head at all, no visible bubbles in the glass...

I just got an inkbird 308 that seems to be the defacto temperature controller. I'm using it in a converted minifridge (kegerator) setup. So I'm looking for what others have done in terms of settings and how often their fridge cycles. I have my temperature sensor taped to the side of my keg -...

Which bins are you using? Got a pic?

Humm. I’ve had a mouse problem in my basement a few years ago when I first moved into this house. I think I finally sealed it up as I haven’t seen evidence or caught any in over a year or two...but I’m concerned about putting a food source for them down there...I don’t have space other places...

What kind of container will hold 50lbs airtight? My basement is humidity controlled at 45-55% so that’s good right? Temps no higher than 72-74f during the summer

I'm considering getting my own mill and a few buckets to store grains in the basement (would this attract mice?)...versus driving 20min to my LHBS to buy grains per batch and use their crusher. But for someone that prefers IPA's, Hefe's, Marzen/Ofest's - what should I keep on hand in bulk. I...

So then the question is...for all the places that exchange who do they get the new gas from? Presumably Airgas or some other major outfit is doing the same thing that BlueRhino is doing with propane tanks.

So i'm sure this is asked all the time and/or a hot debate topic but what is your preference for CO2 - Get your tank filled or do an exchange. My two tanks are brand new, I don't really care what the look like, but I do care if the exchange is giving a a tank that's been re-certified and/or...

This kinda what I am doing...if I just find the right temp on the controller that gives me a beer temp of 38-40 then I can get rid of all the tape and pia of redoing it every time I switch one out (I only have 2 kegs). But for the sake of figuring this all out...I’ve taped my sensor to a keg...

I have one of those - never sure how accurate they are...I get weird readings sometimes - presumably due to reflections...usually shiny surfaces cause the invalid readings...for example top part of my keg in the kegerator said 72...bottom said 43....keg only had 4 gallons in it. maybe my...

Haha no...just a lot of tape I used to counter act the condensation. What temp gauges/system are you using?

Ok I’m trying that now...looks a little crazy in there.

Yeah I thought that would be a good idea. I googled for those a while ago but never found any in the correct temp range. They were all for fish tanks.

So my first foray into kegging...I set the co2 to 30psi for the first 24hrs then set the pressure based off “the chart”. My problem is I really don’t know the beer temp. I thought I did with my temp controller submersed in a bottle of water but when I pull a sample from the tap the beer is...

I ferment in buckets using the grommet and the "n-type" airlock. My last two brew's I've noticed that the grommet ends up with a puddle on top of it. I can't tell if it's moisture coming from around the seal of the airlock in the hole itself or out of the cap...sometimes there's foam up there...

I just bought this with free shipping - https://www.build.com/luxfer-cyl-5-al-co2/s1301560?uid=3095875 $35

My local hbs charges $120 for a full tank...they only do exchanges for refill for $20. Refill price seems reasonable, but $120 seems a bit high for a new full tank. That said I looked at craigslist etc but in my area they are all old welding tanks - nothing food grade...or huge 20lb that I...
