Nice to have dual purpose equipment!

27 below this morning with a high of zero today and 25 below again tonight. This is one time I wish my #$%^@%& weatherman was wrong. Heating bill might cut into my beer money! Not! Got to have a few priorities. Still, cold is better than hurricanes and tornado's.

I went from pot mashing to cooler mashing with a bag and it's way easier to hold temps. The degree drop is minimal, about 2-3 degrees. Wish I would've thought about the oven bit like NSMikeD though before I spent money on a cooler. Still the cooler works great, especially with a false bottom.

I like the idea of not messin around with the seconary. Whats a good baseline for a nice fresh hop flavor for using, lets say, cascade or citra?

How about the amount of hops? Do you guys usually use a secondary or do you just go from primary to keg with the dry hop in the keg?

Just a couple more kegs. Pleeeeeze?

Kegging a coffee mocha porter on wed. Making a Citra pale ale Saturday and a Nut brown ale on Sunday. My first two AG batches.

I've found that adding cocoa powder gives you a grainy mouthfeel. Kinda like nestle quik powder in a glass of chocolate milk. I'd use the nibs as suggested above.

Never on a planned brewday but all the time on bottling days. Thank the beer gods for kegs and kegerators!!!

Chocolate coffee porter and a Cascade pale ale. Gonna have to replace the brew that's getting drunk up tonite and tomorrow!:D

Tap1-Nut brown ale Tap 2-Amber ale and an extra keg of Irish red just in case!

Intertap faucets. First pour on the kegerator in a couple hours!

Thanks! Did you guys get the flow control? I don't wanna go through the balancing bit so I'm leaning towards them. Bit lazy.

Any new thoughts on the Intertap faucets? Faucets and shanks are my last bits to go and my kegerator will finally be functional after 3 months of collecting all the hardware. Ordering them on Saturday so any opinions would be appreciated.
