    new bew pot problem

    I've been making beer for a long time and decided to upgrade some of my equipment. I purchased a Kegco 10 gallon brew pot. the problem is that the stem for the thermometer extends too far into the pot and my wort chiller won't clear it. Any quick fix for this?

    Floor burner safe indoors?

    Just got my new Blichmann floor burner with the 2ft extension legs. the warnings that come with it say "for outdoor use only". is this just a CYA on their part?

    spooky carbination

    I have two batches of beer that I'm finally getting to the end of. for some strange reason as I get down to the last couple of six packs I have had a few beers that have been over carbonated. Extra pressure when I pop the top and pouring only a couple of tablespoons in a glass will foam all the...
