I would move the corny kegs from keezer to temp controlled fridge after filling a growler or two, then use the keezer which is indoors as the fermentation chamber since it has a temp controller as well and I will have adequate space. I just won't be able to get any beer from the kegs which is...

I may try the growler route an move the kegs to the fermentation fridge. Use the keezer to ferment both carboys. Thanks for the help.

Going to do my first 10gal batch this weekend but fermentation fridge only has enough space for one bucket/carboy. Would it be ok to put 1 carboy in my keezer at 35degrees for 2 weeks since I have 2 cornys in there that are tapped now?

So I kegged my imperial rye IPA last week after dry hopping in a bucket with a spigot and did not put hops in a bag thinking they would drop to the bottom of the bucket and would stay there when transferring to keg. Unfortunately the hops stayed in suspension and went into the keg as well...

Mad4sax, What did you use to cover up the holes for shanks and where can I find some? Sent from my iPad using Home Brew

I have a GE 7.0cf FCM7SUWW variant. My issue is with the lock on the front. The plastic piece on the front of the lid has broken off and I was thinking about removing it as well as the locking mechanism on the front of the freezer. Anyone done this? Concerned about filling screw holes on lid...

BrewHound71, I just ordered the 2 pack converted ball lock from Cornykeg.com. With shipping came out to $109.

About to purchase 2 more kegs for my keezer in the works. Looking for the best deal I can get for used 5 gal ball lock kegs. My local Homebrew shop sells them for $73 and Midwest supplies is out of stock. I have checked on CL and can never find any. Any leads would be appreciated. Thanks...

About to build a collar for my keezer and wondering what kind of wood to use to tolerate the moisture? Also what kind of insulation should I use for inside collar?

I don't have a scale so any ideas on volume? It's an IPA. I'm thinking maybe 1/2tsp per 12oz? That's just a guess Sent from my iPad using Home Brew

How much sucrose for 12oz or 22oz bottle? Sent from my iPad using Home Brew

So I have a batch ready to keg but I have over 5 gallons (prob closer to 6) and only have one keg. I have bottles but no dextrose to prime with. Would it be ok to fill the keg and leave excess beer in fermenter for a few days until I get my lazy self to store to get more priming sugar? My gut...

Ok thanks for the quick replies. Much appreciated

All of the threads I have read say that the best tubing to use for beer line is 3/16". All of the liquid disconnects i have seen for ball lock kegs have 1/4" barbed fittings. Am I missing something? Does the 1/4" barbed fitting fit the 3/16" tubing?

I don't mean to hijack the thread but had a quick question about iodaphor. Once a 12.5-25ppm solution is made and used to sanitize equipment, can it be saved and reused next brew day? I have been tossing mine but it would be great if I could reuse as I see many people do with star-san.

The pumpkin spiced porter was my 2nd batch so I'm a newb as well but judging from all of the threads I've read here it's not extremely important to rack to secondary and if you do, don't do it until you get a consistent FG over 2-3day period. Then you can do secondary or bottle/keg. I kept my...

I brewed the exact same kit last week and ended up with an OG of 1.050 but I chalk the low OG up to the fact that I had a boilover after adding the first hops (approx 2-3 cups of wort). I also only added 3/4 of the spice pack due to reading some reviews of this kit saying there was too much...
