Hey guys, Two questions: 1) What sort of off-flavors will I get if I use a yeast cake from one of the last batches of beer? (Safale 05, and there's some Wyeast cakes, too.) Hop aroma, funky aftertaste? What all would I come up against? 2) What commercially available ciders have...

Solid find; ordered one.

This has probably been covered, but I figured I'd ask; are there any thermostats/temp. controllers that are readily available locally? I'm wondering if something like Petco would carry something similar to the ebay controller.

I bit the bullet and, though I don't suggest it, decided to try adjusting the set screw with the power on. I think I hit pretty close to that weird magical point, and we'll see how it goes tomorrow. My worry is that it'll kick on too often; I'll probably end up getting an external controller...

Also, I've seen people saying that it will take 2 or 3 hours for the temp to stabilize, and others who will wait for 24+ hours before trying to tweak the freezer. What do you guys think? I've been letting my sit anywhere from 2 to 12 hours before tweaking it again.

After reading through 28 pages, I'm not sure this has been asked (though one post seemed to allude to it). When I turn the set screw in all the way, clockwise, there's a point in which the compressor kicks off. I've been doing this unplugged; so, I'll turn the screw in half a turn or so, plug...

Were you ever able to find a clone?

I saw your username had MU, then looked at where you're from; cheers for Columbia, I live off Providence. Either way, it's a shame about the beer; I enjoyed it, so much so that I'm looking for a clone recipe.

Thanks for all the replies! I decided to just buy online, Midwest Supplies, and go from there. The local homebrew shop isn't actually a homebrew shop, and the beer stuff is just an add on to the larger store. Their grain seems to sit around forever, and I can't stand their staff. I plan on...

Hey guys, I'm trying to figure out if I can get soda kegs locally, do you have any suggestions on places to check out? The closet homebrewing store isn't the best, but is there some known source of used soda kegs? I'm thinking about checking out a local Food & Beverage supply store, but I...
