    Best gas grill for the money?

    This is the gas grill I use. Stock photo. I love the built in smoker box with dedicated burner and the hide away rotisserie motor. I've had mine for 7 years and never had any problems. Recently got a traeger lone star and installed a external smoker box to do cold smoking. I do love the traeger...

    Barnwood Keezer

    Very nice keezer. One thing i regretted was i used the same caster wheels and they bought the farm shortly after the build was complete. Get 3-4 kegs, co2, nitro tank it gets heavy fast. Might save you a headache later. :mug:

    Water profile after ward labs test

    This water is straight out of our subdivisions well. It is run through the chlorination station and piped to our houses. I have no softener. I wonder if that high of sodium can have adverse health affects? So this water shouldn't be used for brewing due to sodium?

    Water profile after ward labs test

    Hello all. I finally ordered a water profile test from ward labs. I tried using bru'n water but it doesn't work on mobile devices I guess. I don't have a computer to use. I'm going to post my water profile because I have no idea where to go from here to adjust my profile. I know it depends on...

    Minimal Carbonation in Kegs

    One thing i do is hook a pressure gauge to the keg post to check pressure before i walk away, just to be sure that the regulator is accurate. Might be worth checking into. Go get a low pressure gauge for accuracy. I use a 30psi gauge and sometimes a digital tire pressure gauge to check manifold...

    Northern Brewer

    I've used NB for 99% of my orders but recently found morebeer.com they give free shipping on orders overy 59.00. I'm not affiliated with them just a pleased customer. Don't think I've ever had an order under 60.00 so what is there to loose? NB seems to me like they have to always have the...
