The X3 is evidently limited to 15 psi, but per the above calculator, that should be enough once the beer is cold. The WilliamsWarn reviews on MoreBeer suggest that it works well, but confuses many, likely comes without necessary gas fittings and may require a custom wooden bracket if it isn't...

Thanks I appreciate the advice. I'm bookmarking that site. The beer gun looks like a nice, simple rig that is easy to use and easy to store. Regarding the process: Once you connect a gas tank to the fermenter via the regulator, do you just leave the gas tank valve open, or is it better to keep...

Thank you, Mr. Bayne. This is just the information I needed. I didn't realize silicone was highly gas permeable, but a quick search confirms what you said. At least it will result in the egress of CO2 rather than the ingress of O2. I'm going to put balloons over a few bottles to try and gauge...

Thanks! :) Yes, I have plenty of mason jars. Small batch comparisons are a simple and practical way to gain good experience. I honestly don't know right now if I like crystal 40 more than crystal 60 or if I like chocolate more then light chocolate etc.

Hi. My real name is David. I'm recently retired, enjoying my brew days, and looking to learn more about the craft. I found this site whilst searching for ideas on better tasting base malts.
