That’s a good idea too I guess, didn’t think of it like that, to find a similar screw with a different head, my goal was not to need a tool though.

so the new anvil pump looks like it has some good features in it, to me the switch is nice but I can wire one of those easily (or use a surge protector)... but the wing nuts on the bolts that secure the pump head look nice. Anyone mod their chigger pump in a similar way? Care to share the...

Ok, So I’m looking to brew a 10 gallon batch on a 5 gallon all grain set up... I’d like to brew an amber ale with a neighbor and split the 10 gallons into two fermenters. I’m not sure if it would be better to do a partial boil and top off with water, knowing I’m loosing efficiency OR...

how did you get good pear flavor? Did you juice and make a concentrate?

Thanks for the notes and the word of caution on Elderberries. I will let you know how it goes and what method I use. I think i'm going to juice some pears in a juicer, and then use the freeze concentrate method to get the pear concentrate. I think I'll then create a elderberry simple syrup...

So I've got 5 gallons fermenting. I usually backsweeten with concentrate or another type of juice to add a little more flavor. My wife suggested elderberries and pear as a good flavor combo to accent the cider... Any ideas for the elderberry? I'm thinking of boiling some dried berries in...

I think it was brewers friend... its possible that because I used half a bottle of the flavoring and other real juice that it could have hidden any "artificial" flavor...

I'm not sure why I don't use more concentrate... I just stumbled through this recipe once and it came out great at about 8% abv. I did decide to sweeten with pomegranate juice (1 bottle of organic stuff... maybe a liter) and then some strawberry flavor from my LHBS. Turned out awesome again.

I may do some tests with my current batch before i flavor the rest of the new keg... maybe just go with fruit flavor from my LHBS

Bobby, You were right, never got a good carb level... never got a decent pour... tried balancing the line diameters and length etc etc... converted a deep freezer to a keezer and been smooth sailing ever since. Going to kegs without knowledge of needing to keep them temp controlled while...

Ok, here's what I got going on... 4 gallons Costco apple juice 2 can apple concentrate 2# dark brown sugar Topped off with water to 5.5 gallons White Labs wlp775 1.060 s.g. Did this mix last month, accidentally backsweetened with frozen raspberry lemonade... not huge flavor add...

Where can I find the pressure chart?

OK, I know there is some table floating around at force carbing at different temperatures... but i can't seem to find the correct wording in my searches. So I have some questions. I just started and got my first keg system. I don't yet have a chest freezer for good storage so i'm planning on...
