just bought a conversion kit... 4 corny's... done with bottling, on with the keggin.... two beers going in kegs this weekend...

just went out in the garage to look at my handy work again. the faucets are cold on the outside of the fridge. this should work nicely !!! :mug: doesn't prove i don't have any leaks, but when i pull on a faucet handle the remaining gas in the kegs is coming out... need some beer soon...

yep, that's the only drawback with kegging. the friends house i go to most brews with me and will still be bottling his, so i will drink his beer at his house :rockin:

yup, i agree... can't wait to get it up and running... tomorrow i get the C02 tank filled and will insure it holds pressure. Saturday I will be putting an American IPA and a Holiday Special Ale in two kegs... Could be enjoying some keg beer with football on Sunday :mug:

Bought a conversion kit from Kegconnection.com and the rest is history. Now if I could just measure and space correctly... :tank: doesn't matter to me, as long as it's functional... will be filling two kegs this Saturday :mug:

i was gonna start with just one keg, picnic spigot... and upgrade to 4 kegs with door taps eventually... after taking some time to research the costs of upgrading to a 4 keg system over time, it was cheaper to just bite the bullet and buy the whole nine yards together now... can't wait to...

pulled the trigger... should be here in time for my two latest brews to go into 2 of these... Since, I live in Texas I had to pay sales tax, but not bad for $487.99 to my front door via UPS :mug:

i'm sure of that ^^^ :ban:

that's really great to hear Chimney, appreciate the little review... i'm about to pull the trigger :mug:

that's exactly who i am looking at on ebay... i'm pretty much sold, just don't know whether to go with three kegs or four :mug:

glad to have found this thread just now. i think i am about to venture into my first keg beer... thanks for the info about koetter

i just found some pretty nice deals on ebay too...

i'm curious... i received a catalog from these guys recently and saw some used keg systems for $130... i bottle, but do have a fridge in my garage that holds almost nothing. i could easily fit these 5 gallon kegs in there. i could start with one and eventually build up to five, with...

hey thanks for the links, i scanned over them, but will read them in more detail when time permits... i'm at work right now :mad: thanks for the reply... i think adding it late in the boil sounds good, or even possibly to my primary... i would like to have some of the honey flavor...

so basically i can add it anywhere from the beginning of the boil to 15 mins left in the boil. later in the boil might help prevent scorching or carmelization, that kinda makes sense...

Tonight I am gonna brew a AHS Texas Bock kit... I am doing the mini-mash version of the kit and just wanted to confirm at what point i would add 2 lbs of honey, so to make a Texas Honey Bock... I am assuming I should just add the honey when I add the malt extract, it this correct...

i've done that too... using new grommets as of a few brews back. i am fairly certain grommets are not my issue, but thanks for the thought.... :mug:

all of those variables have stayed the same. it must be the cooling of the priming sugar... i won't cool it next time and give a gentle stir every 10-12 bottles...

i doubt it... i use grolsch bottles and i always rinse them thoroughly after drinking a beer. i then remove the grommets and wash them in the dishwasher before sterilizing...
