Alachua Fire Extinguisher on Williston Road. Filled up a 7lbs for around 20 bucks.

I'm still here lurking. Just got my Moose Slobber kit from Northern Brewer that I'm brewing this weekend and I'm getting ingredients for EdWorts Apfelwein to slap together this weekend too. I got three empty legs that need filling ;) Happy Brewing, Chris

Would wrapping the ends of the siphon tube with paint strainer material still oxidize the beer?

What's the best way to do this without pinching the tube or getting other unwanted results?

So to add closure to this thread, the problem was wort sediment on the bottom of the keg. I had failed to strain the brew when transferring and this was causing the problem. The pour is perfect now and the beer tastes wonderful. It was a pain in the you know what transferring carbonated brew...

Definately got the gas and liquid in the right spots. I'll try changing the dip tube. There was no gunk on the bottom so I don't know. It is my first time using this keg but I've got three others to experiment with. Thanks for the tips thus far.

So I've spent two days searching the forums for an answer to this, and I haven't figured it out yet. I brewed a Watermelon Wheat, transferred to corny keg, and carbonated at 14 PSI for 2 weeks at 40 degrees. Its sitting in my kegerator hooked up to a faucet through an insulated collar. I...

Thanks for the suggestion. She did actually keep the wand off the towel, but I definitely can see how a shorter piece of hose might be handier for bottling. In fact, we couldn't get the hose off the bottling wand during cleanup. I tried running hot sanitizer through it, I tried pushing the...

After finishing our first bottling session this morning, I just wanted to say that we had a blast bottling and it was something fun to do with the wife. I also wanted to say thanks to everyone on this site for their advice, whether it was directed towards me or not. I was a little nervous...

Just found out there's a gainesville thread here! I went over to hoggetowne today and the customer service and variety of equipment and ingredients is awesome. They didn't treat me like the newb that I am and even showed me a couple things I didn't know. Can't wait for the next class!! On a...

I'm in Gainesville for a few years, and I agree, the weather's been pretty good except for every now and then, and my house is central air conditioned anyway, so my closet stays pretty good for brewing temps. Happy Brewing, Chris

Nice to see a fellow Washingtonian. Living in Florida right now, originally from Spokane. Happy Brewing! Chris

Greetings everyone! My name is Chris and I'm currently calling Florida my home. I've always been interested in the art and science of brewing beer and so my father bought me a kit for my birthday. I just finished my first brew day, and with any luck I did everything right. I'm a little...
