Greetings to anyone who may read this, Im a newbie to kegging so I would appreciate some help. All I know about kegging is that you put brew into keg then presurize with co2 then wait then drink.. I know sounds super simple but something is telling me there is much more to it. Can someone...

I need to know the best way to save a aluminum kettle from what looks like its grave. See picture to help.. I believe some of the discoloration is mold. How should I attack this beast

I would appreciate pictures.. seeing something prior to doing it helps so much. Thanks for the feedback

I see that it is popular among home brewers that use keezers to build a collar for it. I was wondering if it would be possible to do the same kind of idea with a mini fridge. The mini fridge I have as you can see in the pictures will not close when a keg is in it. I have 2 choices.. A) cut the...

Not looking to down size at all. I would like to use 1-2 for fermentation purposes. I would also like to turn 1 into a mash tun. I have access to someone who is willing to do all the welding I need so using converted kegs seemed like a good choice

Right now I use a 20 gal kettle for my boil. I have been looking at using 15.5 gal kegs in my brewery for one purpose or another. As we all know finding and purchasing a keg legally is very difficult. It is even worth trying to find kegs the honest way? Im starting to feel like I should stick...

For me there is no better feeling then when SWMBO says "baby you should really go bigger oh and get SS.. It looks nicer on your rig".. It's days like that I know I will live forever as a happy man

I'm not familiar with a burner shroud?? Please explain.

My brewery is capable of doing batch sizes up to 15 gal. That's why I went with such a massive burner. When I was burner shopping I read "capable of bringing 10 gal to a boil in 10 mins" I fell in love. I've never used the burner to its full potential because it scares the **** out of me. I...

I have a 210k+ btu banjo burner with a 30 psi regulator. It seems like even at the lowest setting I use way to much LP.. I typically use a entire 20lb LP tank per brew session. Is this normal? How long should a 20lb tank last?

It is a ball lock keg.. I have thought about bending the coil down to sit on the backside of fridge rather then the top. My only concern is kinking the line thus making the fridge useless. Is there no way to bottle from a keg without refrigeration?

Hello All, I'm in need of some much needed advice. I recently bought my first corny keg. I bought it based on the thought that the mini fridge I bought at the same time would hold it. Well I was wrong... The keg is about 1/4 inch to big to fit under the coil in the fridge.. Thus my problem. I...

I need some help with and I knew this was the place to come for answers.. It always is.. HBT has saved me so much anguish so offten. Here is my story.. I bought my first corney keg. Unfortunantly due to budget issues I could not get a CO2 tank to go with it.I ended up getting one of those...

I have 4 gal of a barley wine I brewed about 18 month ago now. I tasted it the other day and WOW! Is it great. Except it seems it has lost all of its hop profile. I would like to bottle this very soon but I have a couple concerns. 1) since it has aged for such a long time do I need to re-pitch...

I'm going to actually be using a 20 gallon brew kettle. I picked it up yesterday and its effen huge. Pumping to the fermentation vessel sounds like a really good idea thanks. Yes the water here in MI is extremely cold during winter and stays pretty cold year round actually. Thanks for all the...

Before I start let me give you a little background. Ive only been home brewing for close to 5 months now. However I took to home brewing like a fish to water. I'm a AG brewer and I have done just over 1 batch of brew a week since I started brewing. Ive brewed many different styles in many...
