    Georgia Brutus 10 Automated System + Keggles

    So I am looking to sell a Brutus 10 system that is paired with a BCS 460 computer to allow for an automated brewing session. When hooking up a laptop, you can control the entire brewing process through your computer. The system works like a charm and makes brewing 10 gallons a breeze. I'm...

    Too Late for Hops this Season

    So I was wondering if it was too late in the year to start a hop garden. I live in Georgia so the temperature is warm for awhile and the area they'd go would get a lot of sun. Any thing I might be missing? Also, I'm having a hell of a time trying to find any online store that still has...

    Suggestions for light summer beer

    So I'm having a bunch of people over in 19 days and I already have a Red Rye IPA and a Saison fermenting away that will be ready for the party. I'm looking to supplement these 2 beers with a lower ABV beer that can be consumed in higher quantities without causing people to check out early...

    Parts Needed to Put CO2 Tank Outside of Keezer

    What parts do I need to put my CO2 tank outside of my new keezer? I already have a regulator and CO2 that I use but now I want to put the regulator inside the keezer and keep the CO2 tank outside. I've looked around online and found the following pieces that might work. Any ideas if I am...

    Help Buying Regulator Parts

    So I built a keezer over the weekend and I want to put the CO2 tank on the outside and run 1 hose through the collar to attach to the dual regulator on the inside. I currently have the dual regulator attached directly to the CO2 bottle inside of my refrigerator that holds my kegs and I am...

    Where to Run the Electrical in My Keezer

    So I built a fermentation chamber awhile back and didn't include a place to run the project box holding the outlets/wires so it just sits on top of the chamber. I would like to avoid the same mistake with a keezer I am building. So I have a few questions I was hoping to get some answers on and...

    Help Me Choose a Draft Set up

    So I am looking to get into kegging finally after a year of bottling and I want to make sure I get the right set up. I'd like to have 2-3 kegs on rotation but am not concerned this point at being able to serve them at different PSIs. So I was thinking I would just need a dual gauge regulator...

    Hop Experiment and Splitting Batches

    So I want to begin to understand the different flavors that each hop provides beyond what I smell when I open each package. One way I thought about doing this was to mash a relatively simple IPA and then split the runoff into 5 different batches and boil them separately with different hop...

    Solution for Overcarbonated Beer?

    So I made a milk stout that has the carbonation level of a saison. It taste delicious but the carbonation is overwhelming and it is difficult to enjoy the roasted flavors when the bubbles are dancing all over my tongue. I've been letting the beers sit in my fridge for 10-15 minutes after I...

    Help with Fermentation Chamber Condensation

    So I recently built a fermentation chamber out of a mini-fridge and I have noticed I have some semi-serious condensation issues coming from the freezer portion of my fridge. During the fridges normal cycling on and off, the metal freezer component (what the two fans are resting on) frosts and...

    Refreshing Old Yeast

    So I made a yeast starter about 6 weeks ago in preparation for a beer that I did not get around to brewing until this upcoming weekend. When I realized I wasn't going to be able to brew, I stored the yeast starter in my fridge and it has been there since the middle of April (I decanted it after...

    Converting a recipe that uses % into lbs

    I found a recipe on this site that lists the ingredients in terms of %s and I was wondering how I can go about translating the recipe into actual weights. I have the OG I am aiming for and the size of the batch. Is there anything else I need?

    Question about finding a mini-fridge for Fermentation Chamber

    I'm in the market for a mini-fridge for a fermentation chamber and one of the things I’ve read about was making sure to get a fridge with the coils on the back if you want to box the sides of the fridge in (to help dissipate the heat easily). The only fridges I’ve seen with the coils on the...

    High FG on Last Two Batches

    I bottled two beers in the last two days and I noticed that both of my beers were significantly higher in FG that I had expected. The Pale Ale was 1.021 (expected FG around 1.013) and a Stout that was close to 1.030 (supposed to be around 1.016). I brewed both of these beers on the same day...

    Anybody have a Sweetwater Georgia Brown Recipe

    I was hoping to brew a clone of this awesome Brown ale and was hoping someone had a recipe they would share with me. I didn't find anything in the search function but I did find a recipe on Brewmaster's Warehouse site. I wasn't sure of its reliability and was wondering if I could get any input...

    Question about Ball Valve Tightness

    So I read up on how to install a weldless ball valve and finally drilled into my SS kettle (15 gallon Bayou Classic) last night and got the ball valve installed. There are no leaks but I do have a question about the proper tightness of the valve. I have hand-tightened the hex nut onto the...
