I'm just curious what everyone's go-to food grade lube is. I assume that using some on the o-rings of a corny keg will make a difference?

Morning everyone I just recently transferred my second brew ever, an IPA, to corny kegs for secondary & dry hop. When I pull the bleeder valve, one has obviously sealed, the other... nothing. I believe that the lid is not getting a good seal. Is this a concern at this stage? I planned to let...

Hello all. I just transferred my first ever beer (a ten gallon batch of stout) to secondary, into cornys. I am planning on letting it sit in those for about two weeks. I am really wanting to incorporate ginger into a beer. My wife loves ginger beer. I have been reading about adding fresh...

I have a 15.5 gallon beer keg that I am going to have two 1/2" couplers welded into. One for a ball valve, the other for a thermometer. My question is: Should I screw the thermometer into the coupler, and mark on the coupler where I want 12 o'clock to be, so that I can orient the thermometer...

Well I did a mock up today to make sure everything is watertight & just go through the motions before my first real brew. I found a couple of leaks that should be easy to fix. Other than that I think that I am ready for my first brew! :)

Greetings everyone! A coworker started talking to me about brewing about a year ago. It peaked my interests right away as I love other hobbies such as making jerky, sausage, snack sticks, BBQing & smoking meats, etc. I have been talking with him and collecting supplies over the last few...
