I was given a GE Mini Fridge and after dropping down the freezer section 1 ball lock keg fits perfectly. I would love to put 2 ball lock kegs in the fridge but it appears I only have 16.5 inches of free space and it looks like I need at least 17 inches. Is it possible to take out the interior...

I am by no means a lifelong brewer or even a great brewer but I am a bit excited about this one. An easy drinking 4.6% Ale. Just enough hop bitterness and flavor for what I was aiming for.

I brewed a batch last night and pitched 2 packets of Wyeast 1214 Belgian Abbey. One packet swelled pretty well but it took 3 days to start showing signs the other, older smack pack took about a week to swell maybe halfway. It has been 24 hours and I still do not see much in the way of...

I bought a new 10 gallon boil kettle but I need to install a valve in the kettle to use my counter flow chiller. Any tips or videos on the best way to do this? I definitely do not want to permanently screw up my boil kettle by doing something stupid so any help you can offer will be greatly...

It looks like I may be making a trip to Milwaukee in the next few weeks for work. Anything or anywhere beer related that I should try to do?

I am pretty new at this, 3 extract brews with varied results. Nothing bad or undrinkable, just some were better than others. I have put a little away to help build my hobby/addiction and am deciding do I want to start buying equipment to go all grain or buy equipment to start Kegging. A...
