    Best advice/method/product for moving from good to great beer

    Wow, as a newbee, I thought I had stumbled into the incorrect thread, I actually went back to the top to see if I had miss clicked. I saw my self in many of the posts on the errors I made, poor decisions and some things I did correctly. But some comments stung pretty well, as they should I guess...

    GF filter issues with hop 'gunk'

    As on the previous reply, I should have more descriptive. The GF has a false bottom with a fine messed screen. The gunk is quite fine, somewhat like a sludge.

    GF filter issues with hop 'gunk'

    I should have been more descriptive, I had already cooled the wort to 66 and ran it against the side of the fermenter to insure no splashing during the transfer.

    My first brew went amazing! All thanks to this forum!

    Have you been looking over my shoulder? Sounds just like what I did, a huge collection of errors and it was still drinkable.. Congratulations on your first brew! I'm preparing to carb my second beer, devoid of the huge list of errors from my first batch.

    When are my kegs full? Auto shut off worth it?

    I'm new to kegging my beer so please don't flame me for a stupid question :no: I kegged a nice ale today using a closed pressure system transfer between my Grandfather (GF) conical fermenter and my keg. The transfer went along perfectly until the keg was almost full. I had been venting the gas...
