Good eyes Broken Crow! I've had that happen too, and now I try to use Oetiker clamps for gas connections.

Made me think of the PLAATO Keg Management System, which didn't seem to have a lot of value to me because I don't need to monitor how many pints I've poured from a keg - it is empty when it is empty... The PLAATO web site - PLAATO Keg Management System Clearing Sale - shows a CO2 bottle on one...

Looks interesting, I have some other InkBird products that work well. I have a CO2 monitor from amzon - some off brand - that is not reliable. I'd like to give the InkBird a try.

Google says they are located at 14300 N Lincoln Blvd #102, Edmond, OK 73013. Google Maps shows they are located at the same place as "Learn To Brew - Home Brew Supply Shop" and Google street view has a photo of the storefront from Jan 2023. However, some of the reviews were not so good...

I'm going to try this: https://www.morebeer.com/products/intertap-short-tower-shank-duotight-compatible-barb.html

Some of the best malt is still floor malted! :)

Crushing67 - welcome to the wonderful world of homebrewing! Were you using a no-boil kit? I know they are common in Australia, including the Williams Warn kits. Most of us use the term wort to refer to the liquid after the grains have been removed (or with extract brewing after the extract has...

I think that white washer that is captured under the brass retainer is all you are supposed to need, but it will still need to be replaced once in a while. The snip below is from a Komos kegerator owner manual - see the "NOTE". Most of the pictures I found of the Komos regulators showed a spare...

I too have had a burst disk blow on a newly filled 20# cylinder (exchange) it was behind the passenger seat of my 2-door Land Cruiser and happened while I was driving... It kinda made my heart skip a beat - very loud and great billowing vapor instantly filling the cab. It was hot outside, but...

[edit - oops, I see that IslandLizard posted much of what I said while I was writing my reply...] The thing with oxyclean (Sodium Percarbonate Peroxyhydrate) is that when mixed with water it releases hydrogen peroxide, which decompose into water and oxygen - that is why it bubbles and will...

Get some CRC Food Grade Penetrating Oil - Crc 03086 $6.99 Food Grade Penetrating Oil, Aerosol, 11 Oz. | Zoro.com or make your own penetrating oil with mineral oil and acetone in a small spray bottle to keep it food grade. If you really can't get a box end wrench on a hex nipple and if for...

I've found a cannabis grow supply place near me that does 20# CO2 exchange for $11. They will exchange cylinders that are out of date without any extra cost (they never check the date). Their supply seems to sort of rotate among the three local welding gas companies.

SEndorf, I have one of those upright dehumidifiers linked in your first post, but we in NorCal haven't made it into our wet and humid season since I got it - we are still dry and on fire. I got it to use in my keezer because of the low temp usability - it uses a desiccant like the rechargeable...

Hey MMP126, I think you miss-read what BuzzedBomber was saying. He said he did open a brewery and restaurant for $500K in response to someone else saying you needed $1-2 million.

Have you talked to insurance companies to get this ridiculous number? When I was at NanoCon 2019 there were a couple insurance companies represented - I did not get hard numbers because I did not have a location, but $45,000 a year was not anywhere near what the reps were talking about...

It is easy to think that, but in your 66 years a lot has changed - beer laws have changed dramatically allowing the microbrewery industry to explode and in many states you can buy and use weed legally - unthinkable when I was young. At one time they actually made all booze illegal in the USA -...

I appreciate the tenacity of the OP for sticking to the topic and not getting frustrated with the naysayers! Where I'm at in California, folks selling at farmers markets do pay sales taxes, they are regulated by appropriate authorities (depending on whether they are selling fresh...

I have checked into the Mattmill - a bit on the pricey side, the only thing that stopped me was they wanted me to pay German VAT, which is BS since they don't need to pay that to the German tax collector on products exported out of the EU. So I would have had to pay the German VAT and then pay...

Hey Aress99, I don't see a link or any details about the NTC sensor from Amazon that you said works perfectly. Can you post some details?
