    Foaming Issues...

    I have a tower fan but would rather not leave it running all the time. Does anyone know of posts that discuss how to wire it into the fridge's thermostat? I also didn't realize beer lines were that cheap - sign me up for 15'.

    Foaming Issues...

    Thank you very much for all of your advice! I'll pick up a set of 12' lines when I'm next near a beer store and report back. Hopefully that will do the trick!

    Apricot Cake - Now what?

    I just transferred a batch of NB's Dry Dock Paragon Apricot Blonde Extract Kit to a secondary and now I have a great slurry which includes a can of apricot puree. I'm relatively new to brewing and was curious if anyone had suggestions on what I could do with it. Thank you!

    What Sanitisers and Cleaners are used.

    Lots of people have noted on here that they mix up a batch of Starsan and use it over and over for "a long time" or "several months." How can you tell when it will no longer be effective? Someone mentioned testing the ph level, but I also am not sure what the best way to do that is. Thank you!
