just transfered my first batch of all grain to the secondary. I've been doing extract kits about a year now, but enjoyed the hands on aspects of choosing my grains. Should be a very refreshing beer when it's ready in a few weeks. I dis a steep/drain method using two brew pots, a strainer &...

Hey guys a friend of mine just did his first batch of home brew over the weekend and ran into a situation I didn't know how to answer for him. He got his boil to hot and carmelized his malt. He said it has a burnt smell and it hadn't started to ferment yet. He asked me if he should transfer...

My Friend Greg and his almost finished attached garage to brew room project

Hey Guys, I got some great pictures of my friend Greg's brew room. For some reason I can't upload, says my account isn't active. someone who can, email me and I'll send them so they can be posted. They are really really cool!!!!

Got a few kits on order. In the process for a second keg so I don't have this experience again.

Had a bad experience yesterday. Went to the garage, pulled the tap, and only a half a glass of beer left in the keg. Good thing is I get to do a brew day! Time to search the recipe file

Some nice back to school sales on mini fridges in this weeks news paper Sanyo at Best Buy Hier 3.1 at Target

THe white paint looks much better. Going to give it a lite sanding and give it the final coats tonight. I'll be chillen by the weekend.

Started the painting yesterday on the Keggerator restoration. I primed the inside with a white bare metal primer (it's just galvanized metal). THen hit it with a white enamel. Turned out pretty good. THe aluminum finish on the outside didn't turn out like I hoped it would. I'm going to...

Picked up some Appliance enamel rustoleum paint from Lowes for the keggerator restoration. I'm going to get it all preped and taped off this weekend. Hopfully I'll get a few coats of paint on it too.

thanks! I'll keep you posted on the progess. I think I'm going to go with an aluminum finish color.

Hey Guys, Working on restoring my kegerator. Got the new lines all hooked up, but my question is about it's appearance. The top in Stainless steel, but the rest of it is a dark 70's brown. The inside looks as it it was galvanized metal. There is some surface rust. My question is about...

Hey Guys, anyone who is going to do a kegerator with a smaller Keg, Target has a 3.1cu Ft back to school fridge for $99 this week.

one>zero. you can always expand later.

you'll have to tell your shmbo that the equipment (as long as kept in good contition) could always be sold for nearly what you payed for it. So that cost is technically neglible :)

Just got a Rapids brand kegerator from a guy on craigs list. $130. Plus i had to rent a pickup. not in the greatest cosmetic shape, but cools very nicly! Even gave me the tap handle and regular keg attachment. it's pretty good size so I should have room for 3-4 corney's in there.

I use the autoclave at work :) perfectly stierilized!

check midwest supply. I bought my reconditioned corney there. Leak tested, new o-rings, ect... shipping wasnt bad either.

turn it all the way down, release pressure from keg then start at one or two. it sometimes take a few poors before you'll have your pressure set perfectly the first time.
