We made a seltzer, basically took everclear and water and mixed to 6%. We have it chilled and carbonated and actually have a really nice carbonated water with 6% alcohol. Really nice mouthfeel but no flavor. A month ago when we made it we put some mango flavor in but can’t taste it. I...

Thanks for the reply. So when making these flavored ciders the flavors are added prior to the ferment? I was considering making 5 gallons of a dry cider and adding flavor after the ferment.

A few years ago I made a 5 gallon batch of Ed Worts Apfelwein. I used 5 gallons of members mark Apple juice, 2 pounds of corn sugar, and Montrachet wine yeast. It was good, ended up with a high abv, dry and easy to drink. I’ve purchased some hard ciders recently and they have more of an...

We have a winery near us that does a lot of ciders, they have a passion pineapple that’s very good. They do a hibiscus ginger, right now they have a Carmel Apple and honey lavender. My understanding from the people that serve at the taproom is that all of the ciders are made from the their...

I’ve read through most of this thread and several reviews on the Zymatic. I was an extract brewer for years, have close to 100 batches under my belt. Seems like as time goes on I have less time and less desire to brew but still like the thought of my own home brew on tap. I’ve found a used...

ive always brewed and kegged 5 gallon batches. I use the set it and forget it method to carbonate. Over the past year I’ve been buying some smaller kegs (1 gallon, 2.5 gallons). When using the set it and forget it method does volume matter or do I just same method as I’ve been using (a chart...

Over the last 10 years I’ve acquired a lot of kegging equipment. I have a kegerator, portable kegerator, direct dispense equipment. Honestly I couldn’t tell you what size lines I have on everything. Sometimes it was just use what I had. It’s time to clean things up. It’s been a very long...

One other thing I’m struggling to understand is efficiency and why it’s important. The only explanations I can find seem very complicated. Can someone dumb it down for an extract brewer?

I’ve been brewing extract for well over 10 years, I’ve made close to 70 extract batches (5 gallons) in that time. I’d like to move to BIAB for several reasons. Cost savings, ability to brew smaller batches, more variety in what I can brew. For example I love a good dubbel on occasion but 5...

Min came off of a picobrew so has a different connection. I’m looking for the one in the picture in the first post. https://www.picobrew.com/store/products/Product.cshtml?id=282

Does anyone know where I can find the part for this regulator that connects it to a threaded corny keg gas fitting? https://www.midwestsupplies.com/mini-co2-regulator

I’ve been kegging beer for years and I have a lot of kegs. 5 gallon kegs, 2 1/2 gallon kegs, gallon kegs. Adapters, regulators, all kinds of fun stuff. All I keg is beer. What else you kegging? Mixed drinks, soda, margaritas, anything else fun?

I’ve been brewing for 10 years. In that time I’ve probably made 50+ batches, all extract, all kegs, never bottled. Partial boil and 95% of the time kits from Northern Brewer. I’d like to brew smaller batches of beer as 5 gallons of many styles is too much for me. A 5 gallon batch of my...

To be honest with you I don't know the area that well. I just said Scottsdale because that is where I am staying. Won't have a car will be using Uber so anything that is a reasonable ride (10-15 minutes) would probably be fine. Going to go see Nickelback at Ak-Chin one night. Anything...

I am going to be travelling to Scottsdale in a few weeks and looking for some breweries, brewpubs, cool places to eat. Last time I was there we went to the Cullinary Dropout and liked that but looking for something with more beer selection and good food.

Getting in at 9pm Sunday night. Any place to grab a bite to eat between Dfw and downtown? Don't want to go to far out of the way.

I am going to be in Dallas May 17 to 21 for work and staying at the Hotel Indigo downtown. Any cool places within walking distance to go for some beers? Maybe a brewpub or something similar? Not really looking for a club just a restaurant\bar type place. We could cab it or Uber also but...

Thanks....That's too bad, I can do those in Omaha.

Business trip to San Fran next week, going to stay at the Holiday Inn at Fisherman's Wharf. Any good brewpubs within walking distance?

I have a Guinness branded stout faucet for which I would like to use a different tap handle. All of my other faucets have the simple black handle and I like the clean look that gives. My nitro tap has the big Guinness handle which I would like to eliminate. I know that I have seen an adapter...
