    What would you do?

    The brewing co-op that I am a member of is doing a wort giveaway next weekend and I get to partake. They are giving away the boiled and cooled wort and it's up to us to finish it. I don't know what direction I want to go with this so I'm open to suggestions. My initial thought was to go away...

    Stuck Shank and faucet

    Good afternoon everyone! I am having a bit of trouble getting one of my faucets off of it's tower shank to give it a proper cleaning. So much trouble that I snapped the tooth off of the spanner wrench and had to replace it. Thus far I have tried, hot water and boiling water poured over the...

    Is double crush a waste of time?

    FWIW: I brewed 3 batches this weekend. I don't own a crusher and I just bought kits from 2 online HBS. 2 kits I was able to order double crushed from one retailer. The other kit was from a different retailer and was just a single crush. Guess which kit didn't come close to the calculated OG and...

    New to kegging, forgot to attach liquid outpost while carbing, am I hosed?

    I'm new to kegging, actually had a decent experience with beveragefactory.com to get a fridge, and paired it with Northern Brewers flex keg draft system. After making a rookie mistake and neglecting to add the flare washers to the gas lines resulting in a completely drained CO2 tank. I refilled...

    Stepless clamp size help

    I too am struggling with this. Is the crimping tool something I should be able to find at my local Menards/Home Depot? http://www.menards.com/main/plumbing/plumbing-tools/plumbing-hand-tools/pump-pliers/pinch-clamp-tool/p-1444449376569-c-8612.htm?tid=-1971737594170548191

    Kegerator Question(s)!

    Hello everyone, just like most of us on here, I'm a long time listener, but first time caller. For my 30th Birthday, my wife said I could get a kegerator so I can mostly get out of the bottling business. I don't have the space to dedicate to a chest freezer conversion, so I'm looking at a...

    Keezer/lagering freezer help! 4.9 cu ft upright

    Never mind, I have answered my own question looking at other threads. Looks like this one is going on CL for a trade to a fridge or small chest unit.

    Keezer/lagering freezer help! 4.9 cu ft upright

    I bought a 4.9cu kenmore upright freezer for 10 bucks (nearly 300 new), from my employer with the intent of turning it into lagering rig. However upon looking at it the cooling coils double as the shelves! Is there a way I could bend the coils back to the wall or is that something I need to have...

    Pappy`s Pub Cider - Award Winner!

    Semi-dumb question. I don't have a 6.5 gallon carboy, but my fermentation buckets are 6.5 gallon. Will that work instead so I can run the full 5 gallons?

    5 Day Sweet Country Cider

    Another question, is this still or sparkling? If I want sparkling can I use corn sugar at bottling or primer tabs?

    5 Day Sweet Country Cider

    If I can bottle pasteurize in my dishwasher, do I have have a significant risk of bottle bombs? My sister wants to make this before she heads off to grad school in Ohio, and she currently lives in North Dakota. I don't want a bomb going off while she's moving. Although if its ready that fast we...
