Busy with work.
Some tears, but not all related to the self-portrait.
I was inspired by someone on HBT. I'm essentially using gravity to transfer into my keg through the beer out port. I get it started by blowing into the other port. The only thing different is that I hook up my co2 line from the in port to the other post on the carboy cap. Since I displaced the star san that was in my keg with co2 I have a nice mostly oxygen free source of gas to replace the headspace in my carboy. I'm just venting my keg into the carboy as I fill my keg. Totally gravity fed. I would never pressurize my glass carboy. The flat bottom and cheap glass will not hold pressure. Especially with 5 gallons of beer all ready on it.
Reason:
I've had a carboy literally shatter in my kitchen full of beer from the pressure buildup of co2 during fermentation. My airlock got stuck so now I'm all blow off tube.
Craziest thing I ever had to tell my boss I'd be late because of since it happened during breakfast on a Tuesday.
Phase one: Brew beer
Phase two: ?????
Phase three: Profit.
