I own a keg co dual regulator for my 3 tap kegerator. It's less than 1 year old and has been working fine. Suddenly, the pressure won't stay stable at 12psi. It keeps creeping up and up, over pressuring my kegs. I've spent the last 2 weeks fussing with the system, and have gotten to the point...

Today I'm going to try my first SMASH. I do 2.5 gallon all grain batches, and the two ingredients in this SMASH will be Maris Otter and Centennial. I'm trying to do this as an IPA that is pretty darn hoppy, which is a style a prefer. I'm using all leaf hops as I have a big old bag of 'em in the...

Please critique this workflow. I’m interested in figuring out the best method for beer storage, transfer, dry hopping and clarifying in order to reduce exposure to oxygen, properly dry hop beer in a keg, and get my beer clear. I’m not looking for feedback on timing or carbonating...

After a few weeks of reading as much as I could on this forum - thanks everyone for the insanely good information - I finally did my first all-grain brew. It was a lot of fun and now I'm hooked. The SWIMBO helped out and I took a ton of notes. A special shout out to whoever created the well...

This is my first time kegging. I did a lot of research and thought I knew what I was doing. I have 2 kegs hooked up to my regulator using a splitter/manifold with valves. One keg has 5 gallons, the other 4 gallons. I set the PSI on the regulator at 12. Leak tested, everything seems sealed...

I'm about to try my first 2.5 gallon batch. I am planning on using a 5 gallon carboy for the primary. So there will be a large headspace, which will be filled with C02 during primary fermentation, and that's fine. I have heard it's not a great idea to rack to a secondary for dry hopping due...

My new favorite beer is Widmer Brothers Hopside Down India Pale lager. Hoppy and bitter, clear, clean and crisp, it's just delicious. I'd like to brew a clone of this as a partial mash recipe. From their website, I found this information: 50 IBU 6.7 % ABV 15.0 plato Malts: Pale, Caramel...

Once my Ale beer has been bottle conditioned at room temperature, will the flavor improve/change if I store it in my 40 degree basement for a 2-3 weeks before moving it to the refrigerator for consumption? Does it depend on type of beer, say an Pale Ale vs IPA vs California Common? I've heard...
