I'm about to keg for the first time. I think I've got my plan together thanks to everyone here contributing. Than you guys! Was just wondering if there were any tips or tricks from the vets that wanted to share. It's raining outside. Football is on. And I'm gonna keg my first Russian...

Anyone have a link to a recommended stout faucet setup? I can't find one I want to pull the trigger on... partly because I'm cheap but learning I probably shouldn't be on this... thanks in advance!

What are keg poppets and do I need one to connect the gas lines and liquid lines to my keg? I'm going to piece together my first keg nitro set shortly. Any advice is appreciated. Thanks!

Hi, took a couple years off brewing extract. Now starting again with a Russian Imperial Stout. Have a couple questions if you don't mind... OG is supposed to be around 1.092. Mine was 1.082. It's been 10 days and now it's at 1.018. When I saw that I was thrilled but then I tasted it and don't...

Hello, was wondering what a good beer (kit) was for hot summer temps. I can control my temps effectively at this point between 66F and 72f. Being honest it'll prob run towards the hotter of that (so not sure how effective that really is yet...). I'm looking to brew my third kit in about 2 weeks...

Immersion wort chiller sprayed tap water into wort once I started to cool it. Should I re-boil? Or is it fine? Thanks Sent from my iPad using Home Brew

Hello. Doing my second brew kit. A Belgian Blonde. My first time using a glass carboy. I've washed and now sanitizing using starsan. Do I need to soak the entire inside? And when I empty it out do I need to get rid of most of the bubbles? I know it's not supposed to add any flavor but need to...

Doing my first brew and realize now how much air temperature fluctuates during the day. I have a chest freezer I can use as a temp controlled fermenter, my question is after the summer when I no longer need to use it, will the unit be capable of freezing again? I know I'll need to defrost the...
