    carbonation chart queston keg

    1. In a pinch you can crank up the co2 to carb faster. For example I had some friends call up and say they would be over in a few hours. So I filled up a keg and cranked the co2 up to about 40psi and shook the keg every 15 minutes and it was carbed good enough for us to drink. That being said...

    cutting bines off rhizome

    I did it with the rhizones I planted a couple of years ago. I would cut all back but one. I would let the one grow to about a foot, then cut it back and let another one grow. It really helped them build a strong root system.

    Airborne Bacteria and General Sanitation

    I sanitize every thing that is going to come in contct with the beer at the time it will come in contact with it, bucket,carboy,bottle,and utensils. As far as where to keep you utensils while your brewing, I fill a bucket up with sanitizer and keep them in there, that way I know they haven't...

    Bourbon Porter

    Yes, but be careful on how much bourbon you add, too much and it can kill off your yeast and your bottle won't carbonate

    You should be good, on my keezer I got 7 taps and my lid is made out of oak with glass tiles. The original hinges have held up great for the last 3 years.

    Stout Faucet Holy Head Batman

    Alright I just got a stout faucet and co2/nitro set up. I am getting some major head, damn close to a whole glass. I started at 30 psi and now I'm down to 5 psi and I'm down to a half of glass of head. Did I over carb the stout to begin with? I carb it the way I use to when I didn't have the...

    Yeah I measured the circumference I should have said that. I got a steel tank from the welding store too, they also don't refill on the spot, so like you I was like whats the point. I asked for a 20lb tank I wonder if he just assumed I wanted a 22 cu ft tank. I just want to make sure I wasn't...

    Size difference between CO2 tank and Nitro tank.

    I bought a 20 lb Nitro/CO2 tank today. It looks super tiny compared to my 20 lb CO2 tank. The size of my CO2 tank is 24” x 27” and my Nitro/CO2 is 16” x 17”. I just want to make sure they gave me the right size. Can any one tell me if this is right. Thanks, Jeremy
