My 2 cents, find out the cost to fill a 5 lb, 10 lb, and a 20 lb. and make your choice from their. For me, I started with a 10lb tank, now that just sits in my brewroom almost empty while my 20lb tank is hooked up. The 20 lb tank cost more to start with, however it was like 5 dollars more to...

I have to say, hearing some of the times people start is interesting..... For me(BIAB'er here), I brew every other Friday. I start anywhere from 7AM to 9AM. finish up, start clean up ( I tend to soak my kettle) have lunch with the wife, then go and finish up around 1-2 PM. Then I sit down...

I'm in, Thanks

No worries. I have a 10 Gal Spike. I love it, never thought I would need to go bigger, but unforeseen circumstances came up to where 10 Gal batches may need to be necessary. Now to your question about the false bottom. with my 10 Gal, I bought the false bottom from BrewHardware with the 5...

I"m looking for suggestions on where and what to look for. I am looking into doing 10 Gal Batches ( instead of doing 5 gal batch, clean up, then do another 5 gal batch). I will only be doing 10 Gal batches 4-5 times a year. most of the time it will be just the 5 gal batch. So I'm trying to...

if you makes you feel any better, that is what I did on last brew 3 weeks ago. if I'm planning on brewing the same beer, I usually try to to reuse my yeast. My process, i usually drop the new beer to about 80F, and then go ahead and transfer to fermenter. And usually by the time i'm done...

Thats about what i'm getting. So it may seem I have taken care of all of my leaks for now....Now the wait to go through about 1 1/2 lbs of gas, then off for an exchange.

I ended up pulling out my manifold and sticking it in a bucket of water.... the valve I stuck on the manifold had small little bubbles coming from it. so I went with a new manifold, and no leak. interesting on how much co2 is used during carbonation.

@bracconiere , Scale was set to 0 before weight being read.I just got the scale, but have had my tank for about 7 months, so No way to weight it before hand. The place I exchange my tank from is a local small business, so hopefully they are honest. i did notice a lost of .2 ounces every 12...

I have either lost a ton of gas before hand ( which is possible) i'm loosing a little at a time. I am not sure. Any suggestions on troubleshooting would be appreciated. trouble started with me deciding to move my tank outside my kegerator (fridge). I purchased a mfl bulkhead connection...

Thank you @VApatriot and @Hoppy2bmerry. This is the first time that I have heard of them, so to me, that just gives me options.

I use a fridge. I can keep 4 kegs in my fridge, since i moved my co2 to the outside. As of right now, I only use picnic taps. I do not for see me adding taps anytime soon. I do have enough picnic taps to tap all 4 kegs if need be. Right now, I have 1 cider, 1 seltzer, and a Dead Ringer on...

I have a delima going on. I am trying to find a good Gluten Free Pizza Dough. I have tried 2 so far, Red Mills pizza mix, and I have done chebe dough mix. Does anyone have a non-pre mix receipe I could try? Long story short, wife needs gluten free, and we both love pizza (homemade...

Are you that drunk to admit that to her? It always starts with “you are wright”… never ends well….

You are doing 27 gal, which in theory should require more power to boil. So I’m thinking the power I’m using is correct, but adjustments can be made, in which I may need to do for the seasons…, I did grab a zip tie (stripped the papper off) and play with my tip….. I did run water through the...

All you use is ISO? I deal with ISO a lot, so I understand the drying properties, however not sure about the cleaning properties for minerials. Do you blow it off with a compressor?

My set up - 10g spike kettle, 240V system running a 550 element. Once boil is achieved I run at 20% power. I brew in my basement, ambient temp is roughly 68F. Not sure what my water temp is, head space is usually 3 gallons ( I usually start my boil at around the 7 gal mark. ). I use a Auber...

When looking into what size nozzle to use, should you also put inconsideration of water temp? I’m asking because my last 2 brews I have had issues with boil overs. First one was a nightmare, second one, I only lost about .10 gallons,before i shut the system off, swapped over to a 9gpm nozzle...

thinking outside the box... you can naturally carb the beer, then you could use a jockey box to serve cold beer, however you will Red a steady stream of ice, be able to drain the box, to prevent a overflow. In turn you will be spending more on ice, and lots of time draining the box. are you...
