It does seem to help a lot. More so when tap is unused for a while and you pour that first beer. Cheap to build if you have a old cell phone charger for outlet. How do you open that box for the switch? I like your set up. Did you have to modify hole at top going from a 2.5 inch to 3 inch...

That's awesome info. I wondered what that box was. I copied pages so i know what to get. I hooked a 80 mm computer fan up to it and have it running inside to circulate air. I originally had it set up with a 1 inch hose going to tower so it would cool beer line. I just have it in there now...

bboy. That sounds good. Good luck. Adding cinnamon at flame out is best. Just my 2 cents

Thanks for the info. That's pretty warm. I would say mine is pretty close. How much does it cycle on and off? When mine hasn't been opened for awhile it seems to run for about 10-15 minutes and then off for 30-40 mins or so. You got a good deal on that. I paid $300 but everything worked...

Man. I live in SW florida and to swap a 5# co2 is $25. Airgas is the name of the company. I don't feel good about that! Some places i called before wanted back ground checks and was even more money. Ill have to keep looking.

Sounds good. Can you taste the gram cracker? Im gonna do this kit and add some honey and may be some maple syrup. Should bring the gravity up and account for extra water

Yea. I would be curious what the temp is. My could are on the back. They get kinda hot when running. When off they are cool. The compressor though is very hot. Not like it would catch paper of fire but hot enough where I couldn't leave my hand on it for more than a few seconds. Mine is...

Got a haier kegerator and noticing that the compressor gets pretty hot. Coils are on back of fridge. They get hot when running but the compressor get really hot. Cooling normal. No problems. I can't find any info on how it they should be. Seems to be kicking on and off pretty normal...

Nice. I feel ya on this. It's just calling me to pull on the tap. I've got my honey ale to drink tho

Yea. I actually cold crash all my brews so when I transferred to keg it was under 40 and then went right to burst carbing. I agitated right after and put in kegerator below 40 with no extra gas on it. The co2 must have absorbed within the 18 hours I left it off gas. Pretty crazy. I have it...

Edit: where you from. I am in sw florida?

Good luck. I brewed a honey ale with cinnamon and I added 3 lbs honey at 30 and added 1 extra lbs and cinnamon at flameout. Came out nice. I would be curious to hear how yours comes out. I have kept my keg around 38 today at 10-12 psi and I'm noticing some carbonation. Here's my honey ale I...

I filled keg with water to proper level. Put on co2 and then took soap and water. Put it around all areas. No visible bubbling. Before I filled keg. I filled with some gas and held pressure. I am wondering if the beer absorbed the forced c02. I didn't have it on gas after I did this over night.

First beer I kegged and tried to burst carb. I set pressure to 30 yesterday and agitated for 1-2 min. Then left gas off and kept in kegerator. Woke up today and was going to bleed some air out. Nothing in keg. What happened? Did the beer absorb the c02? Beer wasn't carbed when I poured...

Sounds awesome. If I understood, you added pumpkin at beginning of 60 min boil. I wonder if it would be better at end. Overall sounds like a solid recipe. I was thinking of doing same but maybe add some maple syrup and honey with pie filling then bake. Any thoughts?

My taste buds are watering for a delicious pumpkin ale. Never ever made one. I was hoping for some feed back on any that have been made. Things done well or things that didn't do well at all. I am currently doing extract and specialty grain brews. I can do full boils of 5 ga. Any good...

Here info I followed and just modify depending on your needs. Hope it helps. http://www.kegkits.com/kegerator5.htm

I don't have a keezer but I built a 80 mm fan inside a 6 by 4 radio shack project box. I then have a 45 degree 1 inch PVC coming from top. I wired it up to 9 volt power supply. I then ran 1 inch tubing to the tower or in your case up to collar and place near lines and faucet. Keeps...

Subscribed. I brewed my version of a honey ale 4 weeks ago. I used 8 oz Carapils, 3.3 lbs golden LME, 4lbs of wild flower honey, 1tbsp cinnamon and 2 oz of hops. Added bittering hops at 60 mins. 3# honey at 30. Then at flame out added 1 extra lbs of honey, cinnamon, and 1 oz hops. Added...

Thanks. I will have to double check for leaks. I sprayed some foamy star San around regulator and didn't see any leaks. I think given the info I will keep 10 feet of beer line. The gas line I have at 10 feet as well. Is this too long?? For the tower I will be building a cooler using pc 80mm...
