We are in Baltimore County currently.

Definitely want to see what's out there and also let some fellow homebrewers try out our stuff. Suggestions? Thanks so much!:fro:

Well, to all, I apologize for selling my beer at my home "keg releases" (although I don't know why the term keg release applies only to "professional brewers since, to my knowledge, the phrase isn't copyrighted). You all have made it clear, it's basically impossible to make ANY profit off...

I think we're definitely going to have to find a new way to make $$ on our brew. It's getting too big to not charge for the beer in any form (cups, beer, merch.) So I suppose its just gonna have to be given away at this point? Sucks being poor enough to not be able to start a nano but good...

We got a 3 way check valve manifold for pretty cheap so we're gonna use that now obviously. That way we have our solution to the beer going from tube to tube and we have room to expand! Problem solved! Here's to great brew and all your helpful suggestions!

Does anyone have ballpark costs for starting a nano? I've looked into it but it just seems like we could never get enough $$$ to brew. I've heard about renting time at an est. brewery to brew your product then you'd be able to sell it (assuming you have those permits). SO what say you?

Yeah we definitely need a check valve. The reason we didn't get a splitter with valves is because they were almost $70 for a two way. The guy at the HB store said "Just get this T and hook it to your gas line and you'll be good. Nope, I'm not. I think we need to snag a splitter with the check...

No, our regulator is good. The main CO2 hose has a T split so the gas goes evenly to both kegs. However, I notice the beer from both kegs teetering through that T split.

So selling merch is okay to cover costs? And I just wish there was some legal way to get $ back from these beer releases without being a full blown brewery...cause that costs a ton.

So there is absolutely no way to accept $ for anything "legally"?

So we have two beers carbing right now. We bought a metal barbed T to split the CO2 but it seems that some beer is coming out of one keg and starting to creep its way into the other keg. Any ideas on how to stop this? Check valve? Let me know!:drunk:

So we are having a keg release on April 12. We are having more and more people attend and have been running out of beer before everyone gets a glass. I.E: last time we had 3 beers, everyone go a red cup and tasted all 3 beers, however not everyone (late comers) didn't get one beer cause it ran...

Okay sweet, I've been listening to them for the past like 5 hours on and off at work. Good stuff and thanks a lot! Gives me a good basis for the processes involved.

I understand that there is no just "here's my brew, sell it/give it out" I would like to know what it would take to get there though. Like starting a small business to sell our beer in small amounts. Say like a catering thing where we provide custom brews. What would it take to get into that...

Yeah that's what I figured. Business plans and permits and all. I would love to get a taphouse or some local bar to put a small keg of our homebrew on tap, first come first served. Any resources you all recommend? I appreciate the help!

My buddy and I have been brewing for about 2 years now and we have been having seasonal keg releases since last year. They've been getting bigger and bigger and many of our friends keep saying we should look into getting a keg or two into a local bar to sell/release to get our name out there. I...
