Replaced the oring and the dip tube and problem was solved. The old dip tube had worn a hole about a 1/3 away from the top which is why it started after the first 15-20 pours. Appreciate the suggestion!

I set the temp to 40 degrees and carbed it to 40psi. This is what I'm getting no matter the psi I set it to pour.

10-4... thank you for the updates. I'll shorten the line tonight. I only carbed to 30PSI so I'll need to increase that as well. I'm also thinking of buying a perlick flow control tap to help as well.

I recently made a vodka seltzer for a Christmas party and forced carbonated at 30PSI for the first two days. I dropped it to 12 PSI and it poured okay during the party. Although, a week later it's pouring and I'm having breakout where the seltzer is flat. I'm using 3/16 ID soft tubing with about...

That’s what I’m trying to figure out. They verified all results back on May 14th.

Has anyone else received their feedback from the competition this year? They said it would be sent out on the 19th after the awards ceremony.

There’s adhesive, it’s just not sticking for a long period of time. I think when the temperature rises it causes the adhesive to weaken and allows the controller to bow up. I’m more worried about moisture getting below it and ruining the temp displays. I emailed craft a brew and will see what...

Has anyone ran into an issue of the control buttons not staying adhered to the unit? I just received my stasis and upon unboxing it has this issue. I tried to push it down but it keeps bowing up. excuse the pollen on the unit. I inboxed during the middle of pollen season here in GA

Interesting they don't use gypsum. 1968 is an animal. I'm usually close to FG within 3-4 days max. I'm usually raising the temps to 71 by day 7 for the Diacetyl rest and dry hop around day 9-12/14 depending on when I have time to rack. I will try the higher temp dry hop on my next attempt. I...

This turned out very close to Tropicalia. Color was spot on. Bitterness was close as well. Might whirlpool at 160 to drop the bitterness down a small amount. The main difference was a noticeable Pineapple aroma. I'm going to add to the citra dry hop and reduce galaxy and centennial. Also plan to...

I've upgraded from a 25' to a 50' copper immersion chiller. I'm thinking of connecting both together and putting the 25' into a bucket of ice water. Basically using it as a prechiller. Has anyone tried this and seen any noticeable difference? In theory you would think it would have to be more...

I've never heard of the bayonet mixer nozzle. Ill have to look into that for future trips. I'm probably just going to get an extra bag of ice and and wrap the line around it. Have about 10 guys on a corny so it should take long to kick it. Thank you for the info!

I'm going on a trip to the mountains this weekend and have an IPA I'm bringing with me. I'm worried about the picnic tap producing foam since all I'll have is the keg being chilled. I'm using an igloo cooler to keep the keg chilled but the picnic tap and line will be exposed. I'm using roughly...

I didn't. I'm new to brewing salts but plan to on the next go around.

Brewed this today off of the video with Brian Beauchamp from CC. http://youtu.be/G99yr7VC2Ec OG = 1.056 FG = 1.010 5.5 gallon GRAINS 13lbs - Pilsner Malt 1lbs - White Wheat Malt .5lbs - Crystal 20 Mash @ 150 HOPS .5oz Centennial @ 10 .5oz Galaxy @ 10 .5oz Citra @ 10 2oz Citra @ 180° for...

I won't be shopping at either .... I'd rather pay more than support them.

Here is my setup to accommodate the large grain bill. I just happened to have the extra mash tun to help out. Both the small beer and old foghorn are fermenting great. Should be ready to bottle and keg within a week or so.

I plan to use the first run for the barley wine. I just don't have a mash tun to fit 25lb of grain and 10 gallons of water. I plan to split it to accommodate the large grain bill.

I have two 10 gallon Mash Tuns that will allow me to split the grain bill between them. If you want to swap brews after we get done just let me know. I'm interested in what the difference will be between 40L and 20L. You're right on the money with the OG for each batch. I was trying to...
