    Where to buy Corn Sugar

    If you have some Malt extract around you could use that. The demera is also a good choice. I probably would not use the table sugar but thats just me.:o Hey, but you could order a larger bag and let the brew age 1 more week. It's used in food service for sausage making so I bought a #50 @...

    Bad Batch After Bad Batch After Bad Batch!!!

    I by know means am an expert. I use Ivory soap to clean all brewing equipment and then use a no rinse sanitizer. I have worked in Kitchens for a long time and know quite a bit about proper sanitation. I would, just as a further precaution clean your kitchen and wipe down counter tops and...

    Best place to buy a kegging system?

    Ive been researching stuff myself. Cornies from Austin Home Brew 4 pack $149 Kegworks: CO2 and regulator. Tower really take your pick not much difference if you are looking for the less expensive end. They are all like 120 and up. (well I've been looking at two and three tap towers)

    Keggle Input ???

    Hey fellas, I have recently acquired a Keg. I have not cut off the top yet and as I like to plan out everything before I start. I was wondering if I should go false bottom or Bazooka? I want to use this as a boil kettle when I move up to ten gallon batches. I suppose I could use it for step...

    Chest freezer choice???

    Hello everyone, I have reached the inevitable point of wanting to keg! I love to brew but despise cleaning 40+ bottles every couple weeks. My SO has approved the use of a room for all my brewing stuff. I would like to have a chest freezer that I can have two or three taps and maybe two kegs...
