As Jayhem put it, I don't care what the ABV is per-say, but I am concerned with efficiency and hitting my target OG. If my yeast happens to attenuate more/less than expected so be it, given that it finished fermenting. Example: If I'm brewing a 6% beer and somehow only hit 4% i'd be concerned...

I ran into some leaky lines when I first built my keezer earlier this year. I ended up going through a 5# tank in a couple of days and found a leak on the backside of one of my connections. Thinking I had it resolved I hooked it all back up and ran through another 5# tank to find out it wasn't...

If the company sent you those grains and hops in error, have you contacted the company to let them know of their mistake? It's not a big cost to them, but they may want them back, being as they probably mixed up someone elses order and sent it to you. After you've done that, you could then...

That depends on what style the beer is, or personal preference for carbonation levels. Take a look at http://www.kegerators.com/carbonation-table.php for carb levels by temp. You don't have to carbonate through the dip tube. The idea on this is that if you carbonate through the keg outlet...

The set it and forget it method is when you put the keg into the kegerator/keezer at serving pressure and let it sit for 1-2 weeks while it carbs. What I do personally is I keg the beer and purge it, then set it up at ~35psi for 24 hours, after this time has passed I purge the keg of the...
