    Kegorator Advice

    I made my kegerator out of a new 5 cu ft chest freezer. It holds 3 coney kegs and the Co2 bottle. I have a 3 port draft tower and use a ETC digital temp control to keep my beer at my desired temp. I love it. This last one shows some quick made handles, I now have the black plastic handles.

    Next brew I'll try my new in-line oxygenator.

    I acquired a nice oxygen tank / regulator / flow meter. I made a throughmomerter out of 1/2" copper pipe coming out of my CFC. In the end of it I put a Oxygen port. The port sticks into the inside of the copper pipe. I drilled about 16 #57 holes in the port. I hope this will release the oxygen...

    Whats better? Using the stone in the wort just before pitching, or putting together a in-line system after my CFC. How do you make an in-line oxygenator? :confused:

    El Cheapo Digital Thermo from TJ Maxx...works!

    I basically did the same thing, but, I slid about 2 foot of tubing over the probe. I then coated the first couple of inches of the wire where it goes into the probe with silicone, then slid the tubing down about a quarter inch onto the probe. I then smeared a little silicone on this joint. I...

    2nd all grain on new HERMS

This worked great. Was able to pump almost all of the wort out of the boil kettle. I brewed a 5 gallon batch...
