Temperature was going to be my guess. Thanks for posting your diagnosis.

...tank was empty

My normal method. I keave my boil pots on the back deck to cool. My thread I place a weight on the lid. There is no nead for cellophane or such.

I have like 400 empty bottles. It will never be Revy's 50 year beer. https://www.homebrewtalk.com/threads/help-me-come-up-with-my-50th-birthday-or-my-memorial-5-year-aged-barleywine-recipe.195096/page-9

They make thise buckets in 2-1/2 gallon capacity also..

It's not that bad. Liquid malt extract, LME.

The extract kit had been sitting on the local homebrew stores shelf for over 5 years for information sake.

I just did a batch. The beer has a tinny flavor, but it's fairly drinkable.

Home Depot buckets are very inexpensive and functional. Cruise craigslist for a 3 gallon carboy, my opinion. I need one for smaller batches. All mine are 5 or 6 gallon, so I'm limited. I have also fermented in growlers. There is still decanting/bottling and carbonating... Are you planning...

...for mine, less than six weeks. We bottled it from the corny. It kind of normalized. It drinks like beer. Someone who likes funk would be disappointed. I had been calling it Thing 2. We shortened it to T2 on the caps.

Thanks for that.

I never achieved much carbonation. I tapped two kegs. The guests drank most of one and almost none of the other. Two people I trust their opinion commented the beer was good. I think something changed between decanting and serving. I am wondering about line cleaning... ...again, I'm really...

I got some nicer kegs from my lineup. The other two are empty and rinsed out.

Ya gots ta get to correct xonnectors on the correct tubes or it ain't goin' ta work...

I continue living my life as a bad example so others may learn from my mistakes.

So I'm totally inexperienced at this and my friend had experience with regular Big beer manufacturing kegs. We were drinking when we reassemble these things. What's wrong with this picture?

It's only about 4 ft from The keg to the tap, but there should be no problem with the hose length unless you mean some other issue then just plain distance?

I need another set.
