I always fill a couple bottles as soon as I fill my keg. Drop a couple carb drops and cap. Much better than bottling 3 cases.

Temperature? A low temp can mean a low slow ferment

I was thinking about a diy floating pickup. Why would you say expensive? It seems strait forward

Without using a ferment able sugar huh? Plus one on the Xylitol, and stevia works. What I would do since I don't care for any of the sugar alternatives is back sweeten at the time of consumption with a jumex http://www.walmart.com/ip/Jumex-Apple-Nectar-11.3-oz-Pack-of-24/17194303

No effect as long as it all goes into the same fermenter.

Equipment is key. It takes me about 5 hours to do a ten gallon batch because I am not in a hurry and I need to do extra things that someone with more burners and pumps could do quicker. I love to start heating strike water at 6am. Doesn't go any quicker, but feels like it.

So when you dip your spoon in the pot you don't get killed.

I have to disagree there. In order to carb your beer in the keg, you need to put pressure on it for an extended period of time. If your connections are connected and working properly you should not be leaking at 30 psi.

Is your goal to get a really accurate reading? If not, than I would just leave it alone. The yeast will mix it up as it ferments.

I think you'll be fine. Those caps sit pretty tight. I've never tried them though. I've considered it while drinking from one. I think it was coors. I have had great success with quart sized glass bottles with twist tops. The silicone always seems to sit tight.

I did a small test run. Works very well. You can thread silicone hose onto the pump with no leaks.

I just purchased one from Amazon. I got all ss connections and a valve. I am planning on using only for recirculating. I am planning to get it all screwed together and tested this evening or tomorrow. I'll post a video

It's Arbor Day! Plant trees

You could ice it. Something I've wanted to do but didn't have a beer that I wanted to try it on.

You're limited on batch size due to small mash tun. If 7lbs of grain won't get you there than you have no choice but to mash twice. But you can mash twice and sparge into all the containers in your house and just start boiling it all down in one kettle. Once you're down to 6 gals add hops and...

Just brew twice and add both 3 gallon brews to one fermenter. Twice the work. Also, it's 67degrees out right now. Perfect brewing weather.

I keep responding and you respond [emoji3]

Hey I just looked you up, my wife and I spent a couple nights in Lago Vista this past summer. Really nice area. I'll let you know if I have a Keggle to give away down the line.
