I'm just short of pulling out what little hair I have over this. I've been searching on the internet and on this site for any clue as to why I can't get this stinking thing to work. I have a door chime transformer that has three voltage options (8v10A, 16v10A and 24v20A) like this. When you...

Finally, after six months and slowly ordering parts, I got a start on my Wooden, Single Tier, Brutus like system. It all got started tonight with the serendipitous cutting of the keggles....I even used a jig. Perfect Cirlces: The Jig: The Parts: The Honeywells...

I have this listed on here Craigslist in Jacksonville, FL as well. I actually didn't know how valuable this was until I went to sell it and looked them up on eBay. This thing refrigerates like a beast though and is as heavy as one. It's basically just been a beer and soda fridge in the...

I'm slowly piecing together my single-tier brutus type system and have been scouring this forum for all of the information I can get on burners, regulators, solenoids and pilot lights. I live in Florida where natural gas in your home is a rare commodity so I'll be using standard 20lb propane...

I'm about to upgrade my 6 keg kegerator finally from the crappy picnic taps to some (hopefully, if I can get in on a group buy) Perlicks. My kegerator is the standard freezer on top refrigerator and I'm planning on running the taps right through the door. I thought about taking the the...

Just a quick question. My refrigerator that I'm using for a kegerator is the standard freezer on top and I'm afraid that the frig part is not cooling like it's suppose to. The freezer is working really well because I'm using it for extra freezing space for meat and whatever won't fit in the...

That's right...I haven't been able to brew in a loooong time. I've finally gotten settled in and had everything ready to get my brew on! I ordered three all-grain ingredient kits from Northern Brewer; Bavarian Hefeweizen, Cream Ale, and an Oatmeal Stout. Today I went with the Bavarian Hef...

Hey guys! I haven't been on the boards in quite some time here. I've had all of my beer gear locked up in storage since March of last year in prepartation for my new venture into the military. I'm now in a place and ready saturate myself once more into beerdom. With my new found career...

As I did my taxes this year and had to actually pay out rather than receive a refund for the first time in my life, a light bulb went off when I saw what you could itemize as deductions. Apparently, a hobby that is done in the likeness of a business can be used as an itemized deduction on...

Hey everybody!! It's been awhile since I last posted. I had a major fiasco this weekend when I tried to pull my Sierra Nevada Pale Ale clone from the tap. I pulled and nothing came out??? Everything was pressurized correctly and I was getting good flow out of my other kegs. The only thing...

I'm brewing this clone kit from Austin Homebrew today and was hoping I could get some advice for the best results. The recipe is as follows: 10.25 lbs 2-row .75 lbs Crystal 60L .25 lb Malto Dextrin addition at boil 1 oz Nugget at 60 mins. .5 oz Perle at 15 mins. 1 oz Cascade at 5 mins...

I just kegged for the first time and if you saw any of my pictures, I have the 6-way manifold from MoreBeer. I thought that each valve had a check valve on it..?? I also thought that this would prevent backflow of beer into the other lines..?? I guess I was wrong because I opened up the other...

Last weekend I brewed a batch of Irish Red. This is only the second batch I have done that had more than one hop addition. The recipe called for 1oz Kent Goldings (60 min), and 1oz Willamette (1 min). Currently, I am not using my Lagerator to lager so have been using it to ferment ales at...

I got a shipment from Northern Brewer yesterday. I can't say that I'm terribly happy with the time it took to ship. The first time I ordered from them I ordered on a Wednesday afternoon and the shipment came in on Monday. Since they have it posted that where I live is three days to ship I...

I have been going through my Bavarian Hefe lately...pretty quickly and have noticed that some of the bottles taste a little more bitter..or maybe it's skunky I don't know. It's not to the point that its undrinkable but just slightly off enough for my wife to notice. She likes some but not...

Yesterday was the start of what I know will be a beautiful relationship. I started the work on my 6-keg kegerator!:rockin: This week I'll be getting my manifold from MoreBeer.com and all of my QD's from BrewersDiscount.com and after they arrive I can get all of the hose clamps and...

I have recently come across two different types of disconnects for pin-lock kegs. I have 4 of those and 3 ball-locks...anyway. The two I have seen are standard size disconnects and short disconnects for the gas-in and beer-out. My question is this, is there any difference in these...

I posted this in the recipe section but haven't received any feedback. On Saturday evening I drained my oatmeal stout into a 6.5 gallon carboy around 9p.m. at about half full I stopped and gave the carboy a good skaking for aeration. I finished filling it and then pitched my yeast starter on...
