Does anyone know the weight limit on the Bayou SQ-14? Hoping it can hold a nearly full 50-gallon stainless pot...

I picked up a keg recently to turn into a keggle and the person I got it from loaned me their cutting jig. Unfortunately, the keg was a miller keg and it had the threaded neck and the jig wouldn't fit. Not to worry, I've always got enough crap laying around the garage to improvise (it really...

I've been struggling to find a good tutorial/explanation of how to dis-assemble a G-system (Bass/Anchorsteam) 50L keg (also called a Grundy). One thread on here explains it pretty well, but I figured I'd post my recent YouTube find for anyone searching on how to work this one. Enjoy!

Hey all, it's been a while since I've been around, but I've definitely been brewing :) I've got a dark lord clone that started at 1.138 and stuck at 1.042 (+/- 12.5%). I've done everything to try to knock it down another 10 points to no avail. It's been over a year now and I'm giving up and am...

As the title says, i've got a great condition 15.5 gallon rubber coated Miller Sanke keg and a 13.2 gallon (50L) Bass keg that I can't fit into my system. These were both obtained from my uncle who has had them for a few years in his shed after the liquor store refused to take them back...

I brewed a HUGE RIS (1.138) that has stalled out at 1.040 (about 12.5% abv). I've already added some amylase enzyme and dumped a dry packet of champagne yeast in it to no avail. I boiled some baker's yeast and put that in to see if I could reduce the amount of toxins in it so the yeast would...

On my recent trip to visit my uncle in Ohio, I was given a Miller Sanke keg (half barrel, 15.5 gallons) that he's had sitting in his shed for a few years. The store wouldn't take it back so he hung onto it. It's completely rubber coated and in 100% perfect condition. I only have need for...

First off, my apologies for not being around here much lately. My work moved to a new location and sneaking a peek at HBT is way tougher than it used to be at my new desk. Anyway. Here's my screwup... I had a half keg of rootbeer left after our party and I needed the chest freezer it was...

So who's brewing on May 7th and what are you brewing? I'll be hosting a handful of my fellow WHALES club members on my driveway and brewing up a Westvleteren 12 clone using my homemade candi syrup.

I know I'm not the first to convert this cooler, but I wanted to share the pics from the manifold build I did today and ask a question or two... Built using 1/2" CPVC pipe and fittings cut with my angle grinder It holds siphon until all but a cup of water is left. So my...

Starting a new thread on these since the old one hit two pages and I acquired some of the stuff on the "want" side. I have 3 pinlock cornies with QDs up for sale or trade. Looking to get $25 each for them, QDs included. Buyer pays actual shipping. I'd love to trade for a sanke straight...

I have a huge stout in primary chugging away and want to add some port soaked oak to secondary. I've been building a red oak liquor cabinet and have a ton of scraps from the oak boards purchased from home depot and lowes. Does anybody know if these are safe to use or if they are treated with...

This is quickly becoming a ritual for me. And I'm certainly not complaining! Heading out in 45 minutes to the Blind Tiger on Bleeker (NYC) for my bi-weekly 2-beer lunch payday ritual. I'm a little more excited than usual for this for two reasons: 1. I'm bring a pint of my hop-burst pale...

Since I'm likely to be asking a couple dozen more random questions relating to this build, I figured I had better start a thread showing the progress. The project: Our house came with a random cubby/closet that the original owners used as a TV cabinet. It's located in the wall between the...

I decided to tap my HBT contest entry black IPA last night right before dinner. I had an untapped keg of my albino pale ale in the chest freezer carbing up that I decided to tap for a taste first. It was DELICIOUS! The black IPA on the other hand was awful. I'm guessing it's because of the...

I'm about to start building my liquor cabinet that will have two taps drawing from a dorm fridge conversion in the crawl space basement below it. I'm purchasing the last of the supplies this week and one of those is the beer line. I'm at a loss when I look at all of the calculators out there...

As the title refers, vaguely, I'm turning 40 in October and will be having one hell of a knock-down, drag-out party to commemorate my hitting the mid-life milestone. I'm hoping to have 20 gallons (4 separate 5 gallon batches) of high-abv beer on tap for the big event. Since it takes a while...

I've got three pinlock cornies with QDs (3 in, 3 out) that I want to trade for a sizable HLT pot with lid (15 gallon or larger, aluminum ok) or a 15.5 gal keg. I'm in central jersey but will be around Monticello NY this weekend. I'm willing to drive a bit to get these to a good home... I'm...
