I have a 5L barrel I got from oakbarrelsltd.com. I was attempting to bottle a beer out of it and became rather concerned about oxidation. I started by hooking up a tube with a bottling wand on the end, but I was getting tons of air in the line. So I opted to pour directly from the spigot into...

I'm dry hopping a Belgian IPA with an ounce of pellets, so I've been looking all over at dry hopping techniques. Here's my idea: In order to filter out any hops when kegging my beer, I'd like to simply fix a piece of muslin bag or paint strainer mesh taut over the inside opening of my spigot...

So I was using some White Labs yeast, which I've never done before. Gave it a decent shake to get it all off the bottom. Of course, when I opened it, it started to overflow. My initial response was not to waste any so I dumped it in. It then occurred to me that some of the yeast had dripped down...

I have a keg carbed at 12 PSI sitting in my keggerator. I plan on wrapping it in a towel and driving it about 2 hours. Upon arrival, it'll be put on ice over night and served the following day. It's a Belgian Wit so I'm not really worried about it looking hazy. That sound like a reasonable plan...

I drained my CO2 in like a week because of a leak. I think it may have just been that the lid wasn't sat correctly. My question is this...I weighed my new CO2 bottle at 17.8 pounds, will it remain there assuming I've fixed the leak?

I had a leak somewhere and drained all my CO2. I'm planning on replacing all the O-rings and then trying to find any leak that may remain. I have another keg with a different style lid and posts. I was thinking I might just put new rings on the other lid and posts and use them to make things a...

I kegged my beer 9 days ago. Went to check out it today and my pressure is at zero...appears that I'm out of CO2. I'm assuming I have a leak? Solutions? My beer is still fine, right? Just flat until I get some more CO2?

I've got my keg in the fridge between 11 and 12 PSI...about how long until it's ready to drink?

I kegged for the first time yesterday. I checked it today and there appears to be beer in my beverage line. Should I be concerned?

I just had a bad day. I'm making a Belgian Wit and didn't strain it when I was done brewing...so I had to restart my siphon 4 times today because orange peel kept getting stuck in the tube. I got pretty close to the bottom and decided to call it quits because I'd stirred things up pretty good. I...

I'm currently working on a Belgian Wit...it's my second brew. It's been in the fermenter for two weeks. It never seemed to do a ton of bubbling, but I removed the airlock at one point and peeked in and there seemed to be krausen forming. While I was home for Thanksgiving (four days) the...
