    how to hook up an not get beer everywhere....

    Were you squirted with beer or with foam? If it's foam, then there's prolly a sheetload of pressure in there or it's overcarbbed and you need to just vent it slower. If it's beer, then here's my best guesses: - you reassembled the keg wrong and mismatched the posts with their intended...

    MLT shape pros/cons

    +1 a 40-52qt cooler will work well for anything you'd want to make in a 5g batch. If you get a 20qt cooler, you'll just be upgrading when you decided to make that 1.080 beer. Not if, but when. +1

    MLT shape pros/cons

    It can make a difference in grainbed depth. Usually this isn't an issue with any shape 40-50 qt cooler, even with a lower gravity beer @ 5g. But if you buy a 96qt rectangular cooler, then you're gonna have one thin-ass bed while brewing any avg beer for 5g batch. Straight outta Palmer's How...

    Central NJ Grain Group Buy

    Hey everyone. I'm a member of the WHALES brew club in Woodbridge, NJ. We've got a group buy underway for full sacks of grain from North Country Malt Supply. We are not ordering hops on this buy. So far the club members have accounted for 32 sacks of grain, so we have room for 10 more sacks...

    MLT cooler conversion with crushproof braid

    Hard to tell in the pics, but did you drill the holes bigger near the open end, and smaller near the valve? I'm thinking then you could pull sweet wort more evenly from the bottom of the MLT. I'm getting ready to mod a cooler to be my MLT, and don't know if this is terribly important...

    East of center. I'm in South Plainfield. Nope. NY Giants & NY Yankees. (I paid for my Yankee fan card, too -- lived through the 80's and early 90's) haha.. that's funny, man. I am occasionally obsessive, that's true. But naa, I can't give up my music. Hey Bobby - you're in the...

    hey from NJ

    Hey everyone. I'm a musician in central NJ, and looking to dust off my homebrewing equipment. I brewed a few ales in the late 90's and had some good times doing it. My previous brews were all extract, and I'm eager to try my hand at some all-grain brewing. Also, I now have a basement and...
