    Switching To Keggles - Building A Brew Stand

    can you post pictures of your stand? I never really thought about a two tier stand, but now It sounds pretty convenient.

    Switching To Keggles - Building A Brew Stand

    Yeah I figured these would be better, but that site didnt have them in stock. I think I am just going to go with two of those. I really see no need for me to have three kegs on a stand at once, especially when only there is a max of two being used at any on time. I'll figure it out in time...

    Switching To Keggles - Building A Brew Stand

    Those burners look overkill to me. I was thinking something more like http://www.homebrewing.org/High-Pressure-Cast-Iron-Burner_p_1050.html

    Switching To Keggles - Building A Brew Stand

    Hey everyone, So I have been brewing 5 gallon batches for the past 18 months, I have about 20 batches under my belt and its time to upgrade 10 gallon batches and I have secured three kegs. Each keg will be converted into a keggle with the appropriate fittings for each kegs use. I am...

    Spice, Herb, or Vegetable Beer Andes Mint Chocolate Stout

    I brewed this twice last year with varying methods and it was awesome. I want to brew this again this weekend, but I have one question. Has anyone swapped the flaked barley for flaked oats? Im thinking the mouthfeel would be much better. Maybe do a little of both?

    Do people simply keg their beer after the primary fermentation?

    Many of my beers ends up being drank (all five gallons) within 20 days of brewday. I make all sorts of styles and have never really noticed much of a difference. Im a big fan of the Stone Enjoy By Series, so doing this allows me to recreate the same freshness as most of my beers are pale or...

    Black IPA help!

    I too made a black IPA recently and after week in the keg, lost all of my citra dry hop flavors. They are still there, just not intense. I will most certainly be dry hoping in the keg next time, in a bag obviously.

    What are you drinking now?

    Never really understood why people criticize dfh all the time. They make solid and unique beers. Ever try the Burton Baton or Palo Santo ?

    grain scale

    Does any one have any recommendations for a good but affordable scale that I could use for grain? I recently realized that my efficiencies were lacking, but that was due to a scale that telling me I was adding more grain than I actually was , thus my numbers were not as expected. I don't wanna...

    Efficiency is Lacking

    Whats going on everyone. Been all grain brewing for about 6 months now, but still cannot seem to get my numbers where I'd like them. According to beersmith I am only being 60-68% efficient. I batch sparge with a rectangular cooler with a braided filter setup. Most styles I mash at 154ish and...

    How fast should my keg pour from the faucet

    thanks guys. I figured this was one of those things where if its working you shouldnt worry about it. I'm sure I will figure out how to stabilize everything and get great pours all the time. Already kicked the first keg. Kegs seem to go a little faster than bottles. Probably since I can't judge...

    How fast should my keg pour from the faucet

    So I finally got a kegerator and dove right into the process. I charged my keg at 40psi for about 12 hours, then dropped to 30 for about 18 and then let it sit at 12psi for about 12 hours. Obviously I purged between each of those steps. The pour seems to be pretty good, I can fill a pint...
