"I wasn't born with enough middle fingers" Marilyn Manson.

That's pretty damn cool. How does it work? Oh welds looks awesome too.

Man I'm not a welder or fabricator by trade but do have a bit of experience w/ metal. To me it looks like this thing was tacked then a light bead welded around. You can clearly see the two hot spots where it was probably tacke to hold the patch in place. Trying to avoid heating and warping the...

I'm a newb but think that the Cascade would do a good bit better for bittering at 60 min. I just brewed an IPA AG and put most of my Cascade & Centennial in for 60min. And then used Willamette towards the end of the boil. I calculated about 54-57 ibu. (per online calculator). I bottle tomorrow...

Got damn those titans look nice on that bitch. Kool to find a minitrucker & craft beer lover. Small world.

Kool man what breed of truck? Big HUGE mazda B fan here.

Thanks guys. I will start talking to those interested once I get some items finished on the honey-do list. In the mean time if you have an idea sketch and post or dm me. I'll take a look.

Total noob (less then 15 batches total under my belt) I have pitched both dry on top and rehydrated. I haven't noticed a difference. Rehydrated for my Skrawberry Cream Ale last night just for S&G.

Weinhenstephaner Korbinian Doppelbock. Pretty good. Then again after waking up to this any beer is good.

I've actually repurposed the handles in the ring (I cut my keggle different) to be used as handles again. Works great and doesn't budge when keggle is full.

Kool to see a lot of rock listeners. I'm listening to either 90's rock/grunge/alt (nirvana, Korn, Manson, alice in chains, etc) or hardcore/scream-o (iwreatledabearonce, a plea for purging, August burns red, etc) or the occasional dub step. Out of all my brewing friends tho I listen to the...

Shoot keep forgetting to add that my handles are cut to angle together creating a small handle on the out side, I did the others with a wider handle as they make great mash paddle/spoon rest while boiling.

Here are some pics of my keggle as mentioned. Sorry for crappy cell phone pics.

Oh cost of ss wore will vary depending where you go. I got mine on our contractors account so 2lb spool was under $12. I think normally it is about $20-$30.

Welding set up is a Hobart 140. Think I am using an 80/20 argon mix. I am not sure how it will react with the ss wire as I have read conflicting reports on the gas to use. As for flex at the top, the two we did yesterday are just ground smooth with a mild bevel. They had very minimal flex but...

I test all handles by filling it completely full. Because the are recycled from the top (which is curved) they have a natural arc to them. This arc plus top and bottom welding of the contact points creates a very strong handle. Hell I lifted myself off the ground leaning on the handles. I'm...

Thanks. I can't take credit one of the guys that taught me home brewing told me something along that line. So just sharing the beer zen.

Omfg I love the car theme set up. Great job!

That's little bit left in the bottom is the Beer Gods portion. It's what you sacrifice for future great batches.

Well some of the local brewers have had decent reviews of my brew keggle. Had a few buddies come over today to get their kegs reworked. I purchased some stainless wire and we got to work. Here is one of them. Still have to get the hardware to weld in the bungs for his electric heating element...
