I was using a chest freezer to keep my kegs and had party taps attached to 15ft hoses. Recently I added a collar and 2 tap handles with the same 15ft hoses. The problem now is that my pours are nearly all foam. I am running at 20psi. What do I gotta do to fix this? TIA

I upgraded CO2 tanks and no longer need this one. It is dated 07/2015 so its fairly new. In Sacramento Asking $50

So I am making M-80 this weekend and some of the hops go in at the last 2 minutes. I always pull the hop bag out when it's time to start cooling down, but should these hops come out too? I was thinking I could put them in another sock and leave them in longer or let them float and try to catch...

I have been digging the NE IPA's that the local breweries have been making. I want to homebrew one using extract (i don't have the equip or desire to AG). Has anyone found an extract kit or a recipe? I have been looking but no luck so far.

Just wondering, if I primed my beer line with vodka, could I fill my Jockey Box up with water and throw it in the freezer? Or will that cause a problem?

Scored an Igloo water jug with tap and 30ft of copper tubing for $65. Don't be jelly....

I have been using a copper tube immersion chiller for a while and I thought I would share the method I have been using to cool my wort from boil to 70 as quickly as possible. 1. Fill bucket halfway with water with submersible pump and place it into my chest freezer. 2. Dump all the ice...

Is it possible to fill a 20oz Paintball canister with my 5lb Co2 tank?

I recently bought a Speidel 30L fermenter and have a new (to me) problem. I was previously using a glass carboy and had a little space heater in my chest freezer to regulate temperature. With the carboy I had the temp probe taped to the outside. With the Speidel I poked a hole in the top and...

Hey all, 1st, I bought a Stir Plate and 2L flask and jumped right into making a yeast starter. I took a half cup of DME, boiled it for 30 min. Cooled it down, then dumped it in the flask, some yeast food, water to the 1L line and the WYeast that I was using. I threw it on the stir plate and...

A couple of months ago I made a recirculating wort chiller that works great. Currently I use 20lb of ice and water in a 5 gallon bucket for my cold water source but today (being Friday) I had an idea. 20lb of ice costs 6 bucks and for the same price (at the same store) I could get 5lb of dry...

I was thinking about ordering the Honey Brown Ale from Northern Brewer. I see that it comes with 1lb of honey and my question is....what would happen if I added 2 more lb of honey? The reason I ask is because I made a honey hef that had 1lb of honey and couldn't really tell the diff between...

My last brew I kept all the water that went through the wort chiller to see how much water I was wasting (California drought) and it came out to about 60 gallons. I decided I would try something different, I imagine it as been done before but I went rogue and figured it all out myself. I...

Hi All, I need to mount my Regulator in a way that it points um, down? instead of sticking straight out of the c02 tank I want it to face down the side of the tank. I googled for a 90 degree co2 elbow, but I think I need to be a little more specific. Is what I need a 1/2 inch NPT Elbow? Any...

I am making a Honey Hef and using Wyeast American Wheat yeast. I brewed and pitched the yeast 6 days ago and the bubbles and krausen have been really uneventful, until today. I checked it today and the krausen is swirling on its own and I am really glad I used a blow off tube, its really...

I am 1 week into fermenting my first brew of Irish Read from morebeer/Northern Brewer. I was planning on moving the brew out of the primary carboy and into a secondary. 2 questions. 1. Do i seal the secondary with a cork or does it need an airlock? 2. What temperature does the secondary...
