I think the above poster is confusing the co2 and nitrogen thread. You will need the plastic/fiber washer between the regulator and adapter. If it's leaking between the adapter and the tank it's possible the inside cone shaped area of the tank is slightly damaged. There are soft nose and hard...

Starsan will get cloudy from minerals in the water. If it's left long enough it will precipitate the minerals out of solution and create a white slime. Either use distilled water or don't leave it sitting so long. Use some barkeepers friend and a carboy brush to remove it.

It's hard to see from the pics but the box thing is the start relay. Don't remove it. It's a mechanical switch that kicks tge compressor on. You won't have continuity on one of the wires until the relay kicks the power to the third wire. It is hard to see but there should be one wire going to...

Maybe your glasses are not "beer clean"

The difference is one is malted the other is not. Muntons roasted barley is made from unmalted barley. Plack patent is made from malted barley.

I'm pretty sure a hydrometer can only measure water soluable matter. I don't think starch is soluable, so I don't think it will affect the readings.

Also even if he did send a out of date steel tank who cares? You still need to get it filled, just bring it to a place that does swaps, pay for the full one and ask for an aluminum one. The local welding shops here don't seem to care.

Bsg will. They say they won't but they currently sell to kegerator.com which does NOT have a actual storefront and is online only.

I did this just to try it. I used it for all the water in the beer( mash and sparge) It gave almost no flavor to the beer. The sap actually contains minerals as well and really messed up my mash ph. It might come out better in a extract batch, but I would not mash with it again.

You should not need any permits. If you have a resale certificate it should be fine. At least here all ingredients are considered food and non taxed so you should not have to collect any sales tax.

Co2 is fine in the fridge. You do NOT want it laying down. You can damage the regulator with liquid co2

Why are your pipes freezing? Can't you add some electric heat tape to the pipes or insulate them? If the pipes that are freezing are going to a faucet, leave it on a crack so there is a fast drip. It won't freeze easily when it's running.

I have a recipe for a black pumpin beer, well it kinda 2 different beers same wort. But they taste very different. I named it Devils Night. I have won a few competition medals with it. It's all grain but I'm sure I can be converted. I do a 10 gallon batch and split it and use a belgian saison...

If it has to do with the government, it most likely has to due with taxes. He should be able to just open up with a different name and business liscence.

What do you need to soak them for? They gets soaked when you fill the keg.

The universal poppets are your best bet. If you need to replace those style poppet with OEM poppets search for AEB poppet or long leg firestone poppet. Match it up with what you have, it will be either of the two.

Try jaybird, he should be in the vendor section. He makes custom sized false bottoms. I would think 1/2-3/4" would be more than deep enough under the fb if you are not direct firing the mash.

What do you need to convert ? Just use brix for all your measurements and recipies. I used to do the same thing with metric, you get used to it eventually. It's just a new thing to learn

Your threads Are either messed up or you need to lube the tank o- ring.

Try homebrewing.org I saw they have used pin lock lids for $1. Even if you buy 5 it's still cheaper than a new relief valve.
