Awesome, thanks again. It's all hooked up and doing its thing now. Will check it tomorrow after work and see what it needs. :mug:

Easy enough. :-) Do you hook gas up to the beer post to allow co2 to get to the bottom of the keg? Or do you just hook it up to the gas in post since 36 psi is a lot and should be enough pressure to do what it needs to do?

Well my beer has had 24 hours in the keezer so I dumped gelatin in tonight after I got home from work. Tomorrow I will put gas to the keg and hope for the best. It seems that you guys (and gals) are able to carb up in no more than 48 hours just by setting the regulator to 30psi. Since I want to...

Here is picture of my last 3 batches. Cloudy may not be the best word to describe it, but it certainly isn't very clear. Seems like your method of just jumping the beer to an empty keg after it has had a chance to sit undisturbed does the trick for you. I am nervous without shaking just...

I've got 2 batches of beer ready to keg for a friendsgiving party this Saturday. I have done the cold crash and force carb method enough times, but I am curious when the best time to throw gelatin in the mix will be. My initial thought is to toss the gelatin in as I cold crash, then pour a few...

Awesome, thank you all for your input on this. Looks like I should be able to pull it off after all. :)

Being a relative newbie at home brewing I never really know what to expect. However I am reconsidering the ipa strategy. I already have a pale ale that has been fermenting for 3 weeks, I will switch up my new brew to something smaller and hopefully faster than the 7% ipa I had planned and go for...

I will be using a Conical fermenter with heating and cooling capabilities, in conjunction with a temperature controller, it will be my first time fermenting with this vessel but I expect it will do a good job compared to my bucket sitting on a heating pad. I guess I have time to order one of...

I have an event coming up on July 26th that I would like to bring some homebrew to. I will be making an ipa, probably attempting a quick dry hop, and kegging this particular brew. I know I am pushing my luck time wise, but I'm hoping that 1 week in the primary, 3 or 4 days of dry hopping...

If you are open to other brands of kettles, spikebrewing has 15 gallon kettles with 'horizontal couplers' which keeps the thermometer low enough to work with any volume of water you are likely to use. I have a 10 gallon kettle on the way, with the horizontal couplers, looking forward to...

I recently built an immersion chiller and used the standard 1/2" I'D cheap vinyl tubing. It works well enough, but it does tend to kink easily which is probably not a huge issue but I have had to prop something up under the hose to keep the outlets supported. If I were to redo it I would...
