    Help with keg on a campout

    I can sit a 5 gal keg in a cube cooler, fill with ice, and cover with a heavy wool blanket. It stays cold a long, long time.

    Can you recommend an oxygenation setup for < $100 budget?

    Use the Williams setup with the wand. You'll never look back.

    Helles/Doppelbock

    Are you making a Helles or a Dopplebock? Big difference as one is a lighter, easy drinking beer and the other is darker and packs more of a punch! I'd go s05 if you don't want to lager it. It's cheap and about as neutral as you can get. I typically get my lager yeast and make a 5...

    Secondary Fermantation Time???

    A lot of it depends on your reason. If you are doing it for clarity, you could leave it for a month. If you are adding fruit or dry hops to the secondary it could be anything from 3 days to a few weeks.

    Kegconnection.com - Black Friday AD!

    I just received an email from Todd. I ordered five of the regular ball locks before they got the limit on the short description. He was nice about everything and appears to be taking care of the customers.

    Kegging problem - What Happened?

    I think you just have a leak, and not really an oxidation issue like you just posted. Hunt down that leak.

    CO2 tank fill Indianapolis, IN

    http://www.suttongarten.com/contact.html $25 and change after tax. If it's aluminum you may have to come back the next day. If it's steel, you can swap but I'd just go to www.tuxedoparkbrewers.com and do a swap with them. Good guys and a good store for supplies.

    US-05 at 75 degrees ....

    1 - You might get some off flavors but the beer will be OK. A guy brought in some warmer fermented beer and I think it was S-05. There was some clove type flavor in it. I think the first 72 hours are key. You could try to get it down to 70 or so and it might still help. Fermentation...

    Liquid CO2?

    don't go by the gauges, they are rarely accurate. Weight is the best thing to go by on a CO2 tank. Given, it's gonna be a pain to weigh your tank if its in a kegerator.

    Straining before the primary

    Wort Chiller - hoses can melt

    You can make your own, and design it however you wish! That is what I did. I extended mine over the side of the pot, and put on ends that I can screw my hoses directly to.

    LHBS Keg Only Competition - Items Needed?

    I'd just leave it sitting there and let others pour their own beer. And I'm sure you could just use a growler or bottle for the sample. If you don't wanna take your stuff, then don't. I'd just bring the kegerator setup. That canister is small and should be quick to disconnect. If it's not...
