Ah yes. Ice cold can of lawnmower beer in the shower after a hot sweaty afternoon of yardwork is the way life should be. Been doin it for years.

A person is smart. People are dumb, panicky dangerous animals and you know it.

+1 This Bulk DME is a powdery sticky mess and you'll make a big mess transferring it. Leave it bagged in the shipping box. I do this and only bother to scoop out what I need on brew day. If you think might have critter problems in your storage area, put the big bags in a 5 gallon Homer bucket.

+1 on this. I found some "paddle" shaped handles on eBay. Peeled the label off, cleaned off the adhesive. Spray painted it black. Then applied chalkboard paint to one side, magnet paint on the other. This way, I can take my fancy labels and apply them to a magnet which can be...

So having never done it before, I'm all hot to start washing my yeast and saving it for future batches. I've read up on the tutorials and feel pretty good about that. Where Do You Get Mason Jars? The problem is I can't get ahold of Mason Jars. :confused: I checked with Mom, who said she...

If your kegerator can hold three kegs, then you should go ahead and get the 3 tap tower. Otherwise, if you just get a double now, someday you're gonna want that the third tap and you're right back here where you started. Especially for only $50 more. I can't speak to the blower lines...

Good News: I got my 40qt pot from Royal Palm and I've been very pleased with it. Three batches so far and all is good. Bad News: I just got a call from VISA saying that my credit card has been locked down for fraudulent activity. Apparently some #(%*)# got ahold of my CC number and made some...

The seals appear to be holding. I've got three cornies now on the gas and the tank is still holding at 10 psi.

Okay, I wrapped teflon tape around the 1/4 to 5/16 connections on the cross, clamped it down tight and fired up the gas. We'll see how it holds. No sounds of leakage that I could tell. Let's hope I have a full tank in the morning. Thanks for the advice.

Me too. But the problem starts with the 5/16 thick red line coming off the regulator (original equipment on the kegerator). I don't think I could hook up 1/4 hose to the regulator fitting.

I got a 1/4" cross fitting to split my gas line to 3 kegs. I've got the original keg with MFL Ball lock disconnects on the 5/16 line connected to the regulator. However, my new hardware are two 1/4" barbed disconnects and 1/4" line with the 1/4" fitting. I've got plumbers lube and a bunch of...

No worries. It's mud and leaves. It's raining here in the 'Burg.

I recently bought a new house. Behind the shed on the property is a 55 gallon barrel. It appears to be stainless steel (magnet will not stick to it) with a welded fitting on the side. Very very heavy. The real estate agent mentioned that the old man who previously owned the house may have...
