its a brewpub, not a homebrew liverbuster. all belgian style in 750ml corked bottles. 140-200 bottles/week. lots of work, but the true art of fermentation lies in bottle conditioning. put your priming sugar into the keg shell, then rack you beer into it to get an even mixture. if youre...

you'll be fine. are you using 5 or 15 gallon kegs? eitherway, with a counterpressure bottle filler you can remove O2 completely from the bottling run. this is where your beer will get the most oxygenation, so why not replace it with CO2. i do this with all my bottling, 1.5 barrels a week...

For those hill country dwellers who still dont know, there is finally a brewpub in San Marcos! We are brewing belgian style ales, bottled, corked, and aged 3 months. Following the style as close as possible, using belgian yeast, european malts, and noble hops, with a local touch coming from...

OP, i would get a welder and have him cut the nice 2" valves off the bottom of the tank, patch the holes with a small piece of SS, and reattach the valve to the side of the tank, probalem solved. thats not a hard job for a decent welder.

Mod Edit: Sold.

I just bought this drum off ebay to use as a fermenter, but it is a hair to wide to fit in my fermentation closet. i just need to resell it i guess, someone surely can use this beast. it weighs 44lbs, closed top with bung. it is not the thicker gauge that some people use for boiling, but...

I have a 60 Qt SuperBrew-Pot(megapot) that i recently purchased from Austin Homebrew Supply. I left it with my professional welder friend and he welded a 1/2inch SS Coupling (female/female) in the side at the bottom for attaching a spigot and brewing delicious beer. Meanwhile I acquired 2 100Qt...

We're brewing a barrel/week of belgian style beer out of my partner's restaurant, all of this is going into corked, belgian bottles to be conditioned for 2-3 months. where can i buy these bottle wholesale? We might need up to 2000. its not enough to get most wholesale suppliers attention...

starsan... of course. much better than bleach. old habit i guess, but normally im dealing with non-food related laboratory conditions where 10:1 is perfect. sorry to get off topic, but how do i upload pictures? or do i have to wait?

i put a tub of damp rid with a false bottom, as per instructions, in there after i cleaned everything. so far so good, its definately clumping up and absorbing moisture. i was worried about the bits of mold that are in the grove around the lid/oring of my corny kegs. there was definately...

I just scored a massive chest freezer on craigslist that will hold all of my fermenting kegs, carboys, and bottles. enough space for about 10 corny kegs and a CO2 tank. i could hang out in there with some friends and beers. anyway. since i already have a kegerator i was just wanting to...
