    Finished beer storage in keg

    :rock: Thank you for the reply, it helps me feel more at ease. I can fit the kegs in the frig and keep them cold (might drink one though). I have an IPA scheduled for July so that will be ready as well. Thanx:)

    Finished beer storage in keg

    I searched but could not find a solution so far. I brewed a brown ale for my sons wedding in early September. It will finish at the end of June and I was going to keg and start a slow carbonation cycle. My questions are is this too long for beer to sit carbed for a couple of months? Should I...

    Bier de Provence clone

    Hello all, I am trying to brew the Dogfish beer and want to get some advice on the brew schedule. All I could find on-line was the recipe below which I want to do all grain. I am hoping the idea is to add the adjuncts after the fermentation starts. I am going to use Lavender; bay leaf; and...

    Tap opening overnight, Ghosts drinking my beer?

    Thank you all for the reply, I think I have some company with this issue. I have all of these issues with my 2-3 year old kegerator. I may look into a tighter tension spring. COYS!

    Tap opening overnight, Ghosts drinking my beer?

    I have had several times my beer ran on my floor from being left open overnight. I typically blamed my aunt son for being careless and not pushing the tap back in place.

    Recipe help with oatmeal stout

    I brewed a stout last weekend and frustrated with myself with the results. I took a sample today for a gravity reading and the beer is very light in color, medium brown. I have been brewing off and on for a while but I am getting the feeling to need to dial in my process. After being a...

    Stuck fermentation with Holiday stout

    Thank you. I was wondering if that was the case as it was 17lbs MO and a lot of specialty ingredients. In the sample I tried it tasted fine and had good body so I achieved the goal but it winds up being a 4% beer. I will try more of the MO and less specialty grains next time and do 153-4...

    Stuck fermentation with Holiday stout

    Hello I brewed a 13 gallon batch with about 26lbs (Marris Otter and wheat and specialty grains) of grain to make a stout. Mashed at 155 for an hour and sparged at 163. Used a White labs british ale yeast in a one liter starter. Fast primary fermentation for about 5 days. The OG was 1.048, I...

    Blue Moon Clone

    I am trying this for the first time. I am making a 12 gallon batch and decided to do 2oz of hops because of the batch size. I also opted to try the WLP 008 East Coast Ale Yeast with a 2Ltr starter. Mash is at 154. I am not sure what happened to getting the 008 yeast but we will see what happens.

    How long do you ferment?

    I am typically one week primary and two weeks secondary. Many of my beers are below 1.050 and I try for a heavier taste; higher mash temps. Lately I have been lazy and the beers have been sitting for 6-8 weeks:mug:

    Using 5 gallon cornies for 2.5 gallons of beer

    I am starting to keg my beer but want to take some to parties. I have several 5 gl kegs. Is it possible to put 2.5 gl in a 5 gl keg? Will it carb properly? I am thinking of buying a 2.5 gl keg soon but wanted to be sure. Thank you

    My brew day with a stout

    I figured out what I was doing wrong with the temps. I was using the amount of late addition grains in my calculations! My mash temps were good and then I would 3-4lbs of specialty grains and then chase my temp goal with the rest of the mash. Fixed on a recent brew and the temps held fine...
