    Bottling without iTap

    Is there a guide on how to use this? iTap seems easier but is 100€ more expensive. E: Do you guys know whether iTap would be more suitable for 0,33 liter beer bottles with shorter necks?

    When is the time for pouring the beer to the keg?

    I can see from the charts that higher the temperatures, the more bars are required. But that doesn't have nothing to do with required quantity of CO2, huh. I have picnic tap that came with a starter package. I'm thinking about bottling my beer. I should have everything I need for it. It's...

    When is the time for pouring the beer to the keg?

    It's all good advice. It takes less CO2 to carbonate outside, right? Then the hissing starts. I got it in the right position where there is no hissing. E: I noticed I had not pushed the tube inside enough. Embarrasing. However when I had not done it, I sprayed starsan, didn't see bubbles...

    When is the time for pouring the beer to the keg?

    I was thinking about something like this. I heard someone using starsan. I just yesterday opened the bottle a little bit for the first time and closed it. Today I opened it again. It's 2kg. For what I know it shouldn't be running empty just yet.

    When is the time for pouring the beer to the keg?

    Now I got the major leak fixed. If the angle of my plastic parts is wrong then it's almost like there is a decent sized hole for gas to leak, but in the right position everything seems fine and there is only tiny hissing sound. I set the pressure at 0.8 bar for my witbier. I was thinking about...

    When is the time for pouring the beer to the keg?

    Now I'm having a problem with my CO2-bottle. It leaks between the regulator and the CO2-bottle. I'll need to get the right tool tomorrow to fasten it. Bottling wand, yes. Water that had been boiled and cooled down.

    When is the time for pouring the beer to the keg?

    Auto-siphon I do have. I have also the add-on which stops the flow of wort when I'm not pushing the add-on to the bottom of a keg anymore.

    When is the time for pouring the beer to the keg?

    It's used. I'll replace the oring for the next batch. This one's a bit failed one anyways. I did a few things that made the process a little contaminated like opened the lid halfway fermenting and letting a droplet drop from airlock to the wort.

    Show Us Your Label

    I like this one for it's simplicity. I see a lot of artistic expression on beer label these days but it doesn't necessarily raise the value of the beer.

    When is the time for pouring the beer to the keg?

    And also, the corny keg that I bought had pressure in it. I didn't know what I was doing when I took some of it off. Should I depressure it, sanitize it with PBW and StarSan, when I start the carbonation?

    When is the time for pouring the beer to the keg?

    The beer that I'm doing has been fermenting for 4 weeks now. Can I pour it to a corny keg to start the carbonation? The airlock did bubble last night. I now sanitized it, took it off, checked from the little hole for foam (krausen it's called?) on top of the wort. I saw tiny bubbles but no foam.
