    Anyone know how much spice is in the spice pack in the 5 gallon brewers best summer ale kit? The LHBS didn't have the kit bit they did have bitter orange peel and lemon peel which i think is what is in the spice pack. Anyway, I have an ounce of each but I'm thinking it might be too much...

    Expanding to 3 Kegs From 2 Keg System

    I bought a 2 keg setup with 2-way air distributor from kegconnection a couple months ago, but I just bought a third keg to add to the kegerator. How do I incorporate the third keg? Do I need to buy a 3-way air distributor? Or is there a "Y" that I can buy to split off from one of the hookups...

    Just Got a 35.5 GALLON Brew Pot - Now What?!

    Short Version: I have a 35.5 gallon pot with no valve/thermometer/sightglass. Is there anything I can do with a pot that large or will I be wasting time, space, propane, etc? I brew 5 gallon all-grain batches but I have a 10 gallon mash tun so I have the ability to do 10 gallon batches...

    Going out of town - Swamp Cooler Question

    Long time lurker, first time poster here. I'm going out of town for a week and don't know what to do about my swamp cooler. I brewed a pale ale last Friday (pitched too hot, about 95, and didn't control fermentation temp during first 24 hours, but that's a story for another time). I've been able...
