    carbonation problems?

    Nah the last batch I left in the Carboy for almost 3 months and I had great carbonation, so I wouldn't worry about it?? IGOR

    Good Deal!!! I think!!

    Well it's brand new, so I hope it's in good shape. This is the first time I've seen a fryer kit even on sale around here. Deep frying turkey's hasn't really taken off in this area. I think a SS one would be better, but I can always upgrade later and I'll have the burner for a while. IGOR

    Good Deal!!! I think!!

    Hey All, I was looking through the Sunday flyers this morning and noticed a 30 quart pot with cover and a 50,000 BTU propane burner in a combo. There listing it as a turkey fryer, but for $57 CAN that seem to be a good price. I would like to expand my brewing and I believe this would be...

    excessive keg foaming

    What size hoses are you using? If you are using 3/16 inch ID you'll need 1 foot of hose for every 2 psi. The equivalent for 1/4 inch ID hose is about 20 feet give or take. All has to do with the resistance... Check this guys page out..He has an excellent explanation of the line length...

    Best Buy Kegerator

    I got a flyer in the newspaper yesterday from Future Shop, which I guess would be like Cuircit City in the USA. Anyway, there selling a basicly No-Name 18 cf Full size Fridge for $349 CAN. Since my little bar fridge will only hold one soda keg, I may just buy a new fridge. Wifey said it...

    Siphoning with CO2

    Very cool!!!!! I may try that on my next transfer seeing that it's only about $2 for the equipment I need!

    Carbonation Problems

    You must wait Grasshopper.........waiting makes good carbonation and better drinking

    Kegs Kegs Kegs

    Has anyone ever completed a calculation where you added "X" psi to the keg and let is sit without the CO2 attached, and the keg will equalize to the pressure you want?? Does that make sense?

    Clarify Agents - Help

    I was talking with a guy here at work who also makes beer and wine. He mentions that his wine kits come with wine clarifiers....couldn't you just use that... Or....you could use Alum....it's used to floc out solids in water treatment plants.....just don't add to much!!!

    Kegs Kegs Kegs

    I would think it would have to be under constant pressure until fully carbonated. After that you can do whatever you want..........OR.......you can just purge the oxygen out and pressurize the keg and leave it and then later when you want to drink it you can hook it up and wait for it to...

    Basic Keg Question

    I would think as long as the system is sealed and the CO2 is involved, that the brew should not expire for sometime....Compared to bottles I'm not sure of the difference.

    How long does your cO2 last?

    Yes you are correct about that!! I should have mentioned that in my post! And I good comparison to the oil light.....When that comes on, it's already to late. IGOR

    How long does your cO2 last?

    Not sure about the size, but it sounds like he's talking about a 16 point socket. In Canada I would just pick one up at Canadian Tire, but i'm not sure in Mass......you could probably try Home Depot or Lowes, but for a 16 point I would maybe try a automotive shop. As for the length of time...

    System is Force Carbing...I think!!

    Well I love the Kegging thing! :ban: I've had more people asking question about it and coming over to see it and test the brew..........Everyone is just amazed that a person could have that in there house. I can't wait to get another batch on, so I can have a couple of different flavours...

    Does Length Really Matter!!

    My Wife says no!!...But I think she's lying to me!!!:mad: Anyway, I put my Red Ale into a 5 gal Keg on Saturday, purged out the O2, put it in the Fridge and let it cool, then hooked up the CO2 and adjusted my Pressure to 12 PSI. That PSI at 38F gives me 2.57 volume. Perfect according to the...

    System is Force Carbing...I think!!

    Well I checked it again tonight, and the pressure is holding steady so I'm pretty satisfied with the result so far. I'm going to let it sit until Wednesday....only because I'll be away until then. I'll post a pick when I get a chance.....I don't know how on the forum yet but I'll figure it...

    Thanks David, I just checked, and everything appears to be ok, so I believe you were right about the temp. change. I'll keep updating as things proceed. IGOR

    System is Force Carbing...I think!!

    So yesterday I got my keg system all setup. :D I can only put on soda keg in the bar fridge right now....little steps people...little steps. So I want a 2.6-2.8 volumes......So I get the temperature of the Fridge which is 40 F...and I get the chart, and find I need to set the regulator to...
