No, the artist has a studio space in the scrapyard and also uses materials there I suppose. The scrapyard has a whole stainless steel section with the bins of TC fittings there. Back in copper land are all the various sized and shaped counterflow chillers most of which simply had cosmetic...

So it sounds like I should go back and get all of the parts I could possibly ever need? Anyone else need a new CFC or 2" TC fittings?

I used 10g of heavy toasted oak chips, so 1oz of medium toast chips should do nicely. I didnt have any issues dumping the chips soaked in vodka into the primary either.

So I dropped by an artist friend's studio located in a scrapyard and got a nice tour. I found 4 pallets of of counterflow chillers, one of which I think will be great for my future brew rig. The owner wast there so I couldnt get a price on any of those. From the tags I saw most of these...

I'm lucky enough to have room for these shelves and everything is organized (not exactly right now, but it's a working theory) in boxes. The smaller plastic bins are organized somewhat Samples Bungs Airlocks Liquid side Gas side Brew bags

Im in for three of these! Ill post pics when(ever) I get them.

Having the tank in the freezer will make the gauge inaccurate. If you have tested your system for leaks already, RDWHAHB. If you still feel something is amiss, spray all the things with star-san and when you dont find any bubbles, proceed to RDWHAHB Other than that, its not a good idea to...

Once you fill your CO2 tank up (leaks can be expensive) youll want to hook everything up, pressurize and spray with a star san mixture. Spray everything starting with the connection to the CO2 tank, and work your want all the way to the gas in post. If you havent seen any bubbles yet, spray the...

Count me in!

In all seriousness though, unless the source assured me that the keg was ready to be filled with beer, I would disassemble, clean and re assemble with lube. Then lastly fill with sanitizer and pressurize to test for leaks. Def. fill the keg with something so you dont use as much gas while leak...

Ive never had a new keg, but in my experience a little bit of lube never hurts ;p

Rock Hill, SC I would love some free caps and to help you iron out some business details. I dont think I saw anyone else post from SC

I'm out of town, but I don't actually think I've taken an OG reading for any of my last 4 batches, I will surely report the FG when I rack to a keg to see what sort of attenuation the MJ has. I can certainly say %100 that the MJ smelled better the whole time, no rhino farts just apple scent

After being fairly sure that this recipe wasn't for Deschutes Fresh Squeezed IPA, I was very surprised to find a sixer of said beer here in Reno and even more surprised to find how similar it tastes to my batch that I kegged this week. I am planning on smuggling a bottle home so I can do a side...

The 5 gallon batches will be kegged sometime in March, one of the batches TBD is destined for a wedding, but not before I do some testing to see if I prefer the cider or champagne yeast, also I'm intrigued by the saison batch, and feel like I should wait the same amount of time before touching...

Montrachet - low floc MJ Cider - high floc Belle S - low floc The 5g carboys do not seem to have any significant stratification aside from the 1/2" of trub at the bottom I guess really Im just looking for someone to tell me to stop drooling over the clear Saison gallon and forget about...

What can I say, the buttery diacetyl complemented the MO biscuity flavor! Who doesnt love their biscuits buttered?

@OH- yes, I have worked with Freeman AV numerous times, though they have all been national multi million dollar shows. I'm not sure what sort of karaoke system you are thinking of, but I personally haven't seen a Freeman delivery smaller than an 18 wheeler. That being said they may do small in...

I decided to do some yeast testing with my third round of making apfelwein I did 5g with mangrove Jack's cider yeast, 5g with champagne yeast and I then I said what the heck and did 1g with old Belle saison yeast I got for free. After 40 days the saison has dropped impeccably clear and my...

I have made and worked my way through most of 10 gallons, 11 more are a bit over a month old ATM 30,187
