I like that you can put half batch in them and then half in bottles. How long does the beer last in them? do you have to drink it quickly?

Any own, try or use one of these systems? I am not quite ready for kegging yet due to the expense. this seams interesting though, do they work, do they suck. What would you all suggest?

I plan on making a keggle one day so thats what tipped me toward it. Also, I found this link that compares different burners. https://www.homebrewtalk.com/showthread.php?t=49244

What?? I just ordered the KAB5 and I do 5 gal batches. How can it be overkill if the flame can be adjusted?

For some reason this was attached to a thread someone else started...... The 4912 seems to be a forum favorite around here and im getting into kegging. Can you fit a 6.5 gall carboy with an airlock in the 4912. I may use it to do lagers for a while before i convert it to a keg. Also...

This seems to be a forum favorite around here and im getting into kegging. Does anyone know if there has to be a minimum clearance on the back and sides? Also, how big of a co2 tank can you fit if you have 2 kegs (corny) inside of it? I have a perfect spot that i build it in to my...

Thanks Pugilist! Does that 6.5 gal carboy fit with an airlock on top?

Ok im thinking a 6.5 gal glass carboy in the fridge with airlock and was looking at a sanyo 4912. Would it fit in there? I would be more concerned about making a lager beer than lagering.

If you have an empty kegerator can you lager in it? I am toying with going to kegging and if i can it will be a large factor in my decision.

How about this? http://www.ae.com/web/browse/product.jsp?catId=cat90022&productId=1503_0559

Are you sure it was the hops you were tasting that beer is only 25 IBU?

Real men drink out of 1.0 liter Krugs~! Sometimes thats not the best idea though. I do agree that the glass completely impacts aroma, and thus flavor. I have probably 10-15 different styles of glass. I like to collect them. For me, the imperial pint is my good old stand by. I...

Heres one for all you that like a Christmas tree in a bottle. Too piney (probably not a real word) for me to have more than 1. http://www.greatlakesbrewing.com/beerProfile.php?beer_id=00000018

Anchor Liberty clone. I am done now but want to understand how to use Mr. Malty to make starters correctly. The og is 1.062.

OK, i tried out the slider. according to that it says i need to make a 1.25 gallon starter if want to use one vial. Is that a huge starter?

The use by date. How do I know what the production date was? I thought I read it was 4 months before use by date on White Labs' website. Also, according to Mr. Malty that says I should use 2 vials per starter based on a 1.062 og beer. Isnt that still a lot?

When entering the "production date" is that the date you are making the starter or the date that you estimate the yeast vial was produced? Also, it suggests to pitch a large starter with a 1.064 beer. If decanting the liquid off, how do you all do it? I would assume something like...

Start giving your homebrew to many females.

Palmer also says to use 1 gallon of water per 1lb of grain. HOw come it seems as though nobody uses that guideline?

Try starting ferment out with a blow off hose, then when the wild ferment settles put the airlock on. This way, if you arent home to catch a problem like this you wont have to worry about it blowing off.
