UglyDude, As I stated earlier, you shouldn't notice a difference in most of your beers but if you do you can adjust for the lack of body and mouthfeel that you may believe to notice from priming with dextrose by either process or recipe. You can always add a little bit more of a malt that...

Yes. If you bottle a considerable amount (half) or even a quarter of the volume then your carbonation will be very low if you try and let it "bottle condition" in the keg this way. In a keg or a bottle the initial pressure in the headspace is approximately 1 atmosphere ( in theory and for...

In!

With most of my batches I like to batch prime the keg with the correct amount of dextrose and bottle from there. I keg the batch as I routinely would and supersaturate the head space with CO2 all while my priming solution is boiling/cooling. Once relatively cooled, I add the priming solution to...

***Problem solved*** after leaving the thermometer out overnight with the battery out and the button cap off and reassembling this morning the thermometer works fine!!! Whew! There must have been some condensation in the battery compartment that just needed a little drying out. I have the...

I just checked out USPS flat rate shipping on this item and it will be $17.45 in a Flat Rate Large box. If you're interested and would like this item shipped to you you can send me your zip code and I can see what shipping would be through other shipping services or non-flat rate USPS. I...

Upstate (Buffalo) but I'm willing to ship.

***Price Reduced*** I have a 50' 5/16" O.D stainless steel jockey box, DIY HERMS coil, or draft prechiller double coil. This dual coil has an overall outside diameter of 5.5' and it is 6' high. This comes with the grommet faucet hookups for each end. I had planned on using it as a HERMS coil for...

I could probably do $45 shipped. That makes the two couplers come out to be about $19.50 a piece.

***Update*** I can curb the cost of the shipping a little bit with flat rate shipping envelopes and if you buy both d couplers I will be able to ship as one package in one flat rate box. I went to the post office yesterday and figured I could ship in a flat rate box for below the estimated $7...

They are definitely D couplers. The spout comes down very shallow and doesn't come down enough on either of them to be S couplers. http://www.micromatic.com/draft-keg-beer/keg-taps-couplers-pid-7485E-B.html http://www.bannerbeer.com/american-sankey-classic-series-p-35.html...

I have what I think are two D sanke keg couplers. One is a newer model MicroMatic SK 184.03 dark blue handled coupler while the other is an older Banner Equipment brand black handled coupler. I am pretty sure they are "D" style Americad keg couplers. I have attached the picks of both so you...

Whoops! I didn't mean to try and 'knock' the strain I was just stating potential problems one may have with it. You are right though, I have never added additional T-58 to a bottle for carbing, probably because of its relative cost and my lack of desire to use it in a brew. I have used T-58...

Again, I would try the split batch. This way you can gain a first hand experience about the effects on carbing at higher alcohol concentration. In terms of alcohol concentration on flocculation: In Chris White and Jamil Zainasheff's book "Yeast: The practical guide to beer fermentation"...

Even better idea... you tell us! 1.) Siphon the solution over to the bottling bucket with the priming sugar as previously stated. 2.) Bottle half of the solution like this 3.) Pitch a little yeast (original or clean ale strain) in the rest of the bottling bucket and let it sit for an...

Believe it or not you still have a decent amount of yeast in solution and at the bottom of the secondary. Although this yeast is old, tired, and flocculated out it is usually sufficient to carbonate a lager in the bottles when using dextrose. D-glucose (dextrose) is the easiest sugar for the...
