    How long does a 5lb co2bottle last?

    You need to have a routine that you use every time you keg if you want the co2 to last. Leeks are a problem and can cause you to use up your co2 very fast, this is what I do. 1. hook up regulator and all lines WITHOUT hooking up to keg. 2. Fill 5-6 gallon bottling bucket with water. 3...

    Yeast pitching rates for one gallon batches?

    I am lucky on two points, I live in California and the weather does not have radical shifts, and the yeasts that I'll be using have optimum temperature ranges that top off at around 68 degrees F, with the exception of WLP 001 which has a range of 68-73. I have a laundry room with an air vent and...

    Yeast pitching rates for one gallon batches?

    Yes that is exactly what I'm going to do, but the whole project is really going to cost around $200.00. The yeast is only a fraction of what the project will cost and sixty dollars is just pizza and beer money anyway. This hobby is not for people who are out to save money, I have spent at least...

    I'm going to make up ten gallons of wort in the next two weeks and break down the wort into ten one gallon jugs. I plan on pitching ten different yeast strains in each of the jugs to see which I really like and to compare and contrast them. I am wondering if one vial of white labs per jug would...

    19.7cuft Kenmore elite alarm

    I have converted a 19.7 kenmore Elite model 253 into a Keezer. Does anybody know how to disarm the high temp alarm. I do press the re-set, but that only works for the moment. It restarts up every time my ranco puts power to the unit.

    Looking for good 5-6 gallon stainless stock pot

    If you want a good quality 12-100 qt gallon stockpot with a 3 ply bottom search the internet for "action sales" you will have to call them to get a price, these people are a restaurant supply store and they are cheaper than anybody on amazon. For example 60 qt $133, 80 qt $157, 100 qt $207. They...

    Help with burner choices for new brew stand

    I am also researching about burners, thus far this is what I know. Low pressure is around 1/2 PSI, now with that said I will give an example of a morebeer system/sculpture. What morebeer does is use a low pressure burner on it's HLT and high pressure on the MT and BK. The pressure is controlled...

    Rig question, Valve and Controller

    Oops, it looks like I leaped before I looked in two ways. Thanks Vlad for the info, but it doesn't look as if the Honeywells will work. The Banjo burners are high pressure, my supply propane is high pressure but the Honeywells are low pressure (3.5 WC another way of saying 1/2psi). I also...

    Rig question, Valve and Controller

    I plan on using 3 high pressure Banjo/Hurricane burners and pilot lighting 2 of them each with Honeywell VR8200A2124, a kit on ebay sells for $64.25. The controllers I am going to use are Ranco ETC-111000-000 which I can get for around $45-50. I am looking for an electric gas valve to operate...
