    Bought 2 - 15.5 Sanke's

    ALL great ideas! Since Plumber Bob was cool enough to get them to me....and send me pics of his set up, I'm giving these a try because they can be dual purpose as I see it. Fermenting aids, as well as serving aids.... Thanks guys.... One question....have you had any trouble using them with 5...

    15.5 gallon keg suggestions....

    I most likely had that reversed.....I think actually the gas line "the lower one" is the blow off since the top, or liquid line goes to the bottom....

    15.5 gallon keg suggestions....

    Hoping I'm understanding this correctly I'll ask. Assuming that the "top outlet" is the liquid line, is that what you use as your blowoff tube? Or both? New to the 15.5 keg as you well know, so I'm just learning....meant to ask...HBS best place to look for sanke taps? I'll be needing one or...

    Bought 2 - 15.5 Sanke's

    At an estate sale. They are missing the tube assembly, whatever you call it that goes inside. Is there a good place to look to replace these? Are there a lot of manufacturers of these and do they make several types?

    Chill Haze

    I mashed this at 150-155 for ~30 min. Only conversion test I did is the iodine test. No wheat involved.

    Chill Haze

    Keg/CO2 question....

    Good morning brewers.... My question is this: With the CO2 chargers such as this: http://labelpeelers.com/co2-cornelius-keg-charger-p-2600.html?gclid=CKyh-IWco7oCFfFj7AodXRkAxA&zenid=lu5sv2l8i3fn2nr3dkflc7ocd2 I can't really find any info... If only being used for discharge pressure...

    Underpitched??

    I'm assuming there's nothing to worry about....not much in the bubble department (as in occassional)(I know, I'm giving it more time) but to look at the wort....I see particulate solids that look as if they are swimming, or the wort is slow boiling. Assuming this is the yeast causing CO2 to...

    Underpitched??

    Thanks very much!! I'm more comfortable now. I was just expecting a volcano like reaction since I did a starter....which I didn't investigate enough, or I wouldn't have used dry. Anyway, it appears to be fermenting albeit slowly. FYI the temp was 70 deg. when pitched. Wort looks good, with...

    Underpitched??

    Actually I did do a starter with dry....I'm new to the whole starter thing, so I was winging it. Local brew supplier said since I did, it was ok, but not preferred. They said to wait another 24 hrs and see if SG had dropped. Said at that point, if needed, I could re-hydrate another pack and...

    Good morning fellow all grainers....

    Good morning fellow all grainers....quick question that'll take a few to explain....I have about a 4 week old porter that I was trying to "pumpkin spice" up....with no fresh pumpkin at all....just spices. After about 4 wks of fermenting/conditioning....it's sort of bland....or plain...
