i dont think it will preserve any better than any other opened beer bottle. the oxygen ingress when opened is the same no matter what vessel you use. i think the idea of the better preservation with these vessels as opposed to regular clear PET implies that the bottle isnt opened. just...

looks fine prolly is. but why wash just throw the whole enchilada in there it works just as well with less risk of infection and oxidation. IMO

i am not sure what you are asking but any pressurizable vessel can act as a large bottle. a corny keg is just a large bottle with the added benefit of having ball lock connectors. but if you are just using it for a large bottle a 2 liter soda pop bottle with carb caps is basically the same...

i was referring to the 20 liters. the smaller ones are a different animal. the 2 gallons are too tall with a high center of gravity. the one gallon are really great size and fit anywhere. they are great entry into kegging. and great for small jobs but the tapping system leaves a lot to...

is it cheating if i buy the grain alcohol. take 2 cups of blackberrys (or mulberrys) and muddle them then add 1/2 liter of everclear. steep in fridge for 2 weeks. shaking daily if you want. strain and add a simple syrup of 2 cups of sugar dissolved in 1.5 cups of water. always a...

oxebars are on sale at morebeer. for $37.49 i have had really good success with these kegs. vip customers get an additional 25 percent off. WOW

no prob;lem. airlock activity is not a good representation of fermentation. also the longer it sits is probably better . warm or cold ciders age well IME. they get smoother with time.

it was crisp and refreshing cause it still had some sugar now its dry and wine like cause the yeast made all the sugar into alcohol. backsweeten with simple syrup or pear juice with sugar or sweetened pear flavoring it will be good then but you will gave to figure out away to stop...

oops

buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo. - an 8 word grammatically correct English sentence using only the word buffalo. this shows how crazy and difficult (and stupid) the english language is.

you dont know what your missing apparently this has been rediscovered and its generated a similar trend on tiktok.

no anyone ever drink pickle juice through a peppermint lifesaver? wasnt that the light blue can with lemon in it

i agree the crush is big. but there are a few things you can do to help . stir the grain bed a few times in the first 20 mins or so. that helps me at least. dont oversparge. acid malt can lower the pH and i think that helps my efficiency. i dont think 90 mins has much over 60 mins in...

i brewed lagers for years . i always serve them very cold like 36-38. i recently noticed that my ipas had more aroma and flavor when they are a little warmer than my lagers. i am lettign the kegerator warm up a bit. but do you keep and serve you ipas in the 40 rather than 30's? thansk.

agreed . lol when i whirlpool i just stir with a big spoon. i dont use the pump . so although most trub is in the center there is still a lot on the sides. i am not sure if the edge pickup would work good without some sort of trub trapper which i think they stopped making. i usually...

clear wort does not equal clear beer . i have clogged the bazooka before and ended up siphoning the beer off the trub. that works well also.

i boil everything 60 mins. most conversion occurs in first 20 mins IME anyway. i think the 90 min thing may be a myth perpetuated from a long time ago when malts were less modified( not sure if this is the right term) i think i read this somewhere.

hi dave its not yeast. its bacteria culture from the yogurt. possbily lactobacillus. they will ferment the sugar into i think lactic acid. from google: Yogurt typically contains two main types of bacteria: Streptococcus thermophilus and Lactobacillus bulgaricus. These bacteria are added to...

i think most filters will clog quickly. i have noticed that if i tilt my aio a little to the opposite side of the ball valve then whirlpool and let it settle that the trub settles away from the bazooka filter. then i tip it too the other side when draining through the ball valve and i can drain...

simple and effective
