    Beer faucet

    I just purchased this old beer faucet. Anyone have experience using these with a CO2 system. I don’t have to use it, but thought it would be cool on my kegerator, if it would function properly.

    029

    Has anyone noticed White Labs 029 seems to be out of stock at a lot of places? I'm in a small town in the Midwest and have to order it. Maybe the summer heat has caused a problem, or it's getting more popular.

    Brain cramp

    Here is an oh **** moment for the folks out there. Brewing a ten gallon batch today, two 5 gallon buckets full of wort ready for yeast to be pitched. Mind wandered to something in the house, came back out, aerating wort, realize I don't remember if I picked both yeast containers in one, or both...

    Unmalted wheat

    Question for all grain brewers. What can I do with unmalted wheat? A farmer just gave me a large sack of wheat that he picked from his field. I have not used unmalted wheat before. What can I expect from it?

    Looking for a little bite

    I recently tried to make a Spotted Cow clone. The attempt was close, but as I tried it against a bottled of SC, I noticed it had a little tartness, or bite to it that mine didn't. I am not sure if I can get it with different hops, I used Tettnang, for bittering, Glacier for late addition. I used...

    cloudy beer

    I am having a problem with my beer clearing up lately. I had a few that didn't clear before, but now it seems like all I make has a cloudy look to it. I have recently started to do 10 gallons batches, not sure if that is part of the problem. Also I noticed that the super Irish moss I am using...

    natural gas burner

    Has or does anyone here use one of the 23 tip natural gas burners? I currently use an old water heater burner, but it is somewhat slow to boil when I finally tried a 10 gallon batch. I was wondering how well the 23 tip works with larger batches. I hate to buy one and find it is no better than...

    cracked auto siphon tube

    Not sure if anyone can help with this. I was racking a beer into a keg tonight and I kept hearing a noise liking air in leakage. When I was almost done racking I found the problem a crack at the bend of my auto siphon cane. I did purge with co2 during the fill and put co2 on the keg right away...

    Strange fermentation

    I recently brewed up a blonde ale, nothing special 9.0# 2 row pale 1/2# kiln amber. Mashed at 148 degree for an hour, typical sparge, did raise sparge water temp from what I usually do. Boiled for an hour, missed my OG by a couple of points, into the fermenter with rehydrated Safale-05. Here is...

    Coolbot

    Has anyone here heard of this? A friend said he uses this with a window air conditioner to make a walk in cooler. It is supposed to fool the air conditioner control to make it cool down to 32 degrees. There is a web page about it. I did a search for Coolbot. I guess a person would need a lot of...
