My new Angram Beer Engine. I must say that Paul at UKBrewing.com was a great help. They offer great products and service. Thanks Paul!

Impellers are in route and hope to have Rob's old ones tomorrow to test and potentially brew with this weekend. Will keep you posted how that goes.Thanks Mako, I ran a mild through it for "testing" purposes.It works great, sorry for no pics, I was too excited and forgot! I'm planning on brewing an English Pale and cask conditioning it. I'll be sure to take pics. At least the beer engine will occupy me until my BM gets here. The wait is killing me! How are things going with your BM pump issues?
Really? Am I the only one that spit beer on his monitor when I read this? Am I that juvenile?At least the beer engine will occupy me until my BM gets here. The wait is killing me! How are things going with your BM pump issues?
My plan is two pull from half batches until I can set up a breather. I'm going to try using the LP gas regulator method.10th level beer nerd! Man that thing is awesome... You setting up a breather (trickle of co2) or planning on downing the 5 gallons in a few days? Either way, nicely done.
I use a corny keg but I think it's the same functionally. You vent a cask or corny before you serve it on a beer engine, so the natural carbonation is not a factor. If you were to hook up a beer engine to a pressurized cask/corny, you would have beer being pushed out of the beer engine and unto your floor. Beer engines do not have a shut off valve.This is slightly off-topic, but I have been thinking about using one of these as a cheap cask:

My question is whether or not it would be able to withstand the pressure of natural carbonation or would I end up with a geyser in my closet? I am in an apartment right now without enough room for a full cask/beer engine setup so I have been considering this as an alternative.

Less then a gallon guess it a drink it all in a night cask.......3 Liters?
...I had a crappy ass day and this post made me chuckle. Thank you Trigger. And now back to more recent stuff.Really? Am I the only one that spit beer on his monitor when I read this? Am I that juvenile?
I mean REALLY! Why are you waiting on a BM when ex-lax is available pretty much every where?
And is a pump really necessary? Did bran muffins fail?
Anyway, childishness and potty jokes aside, that thing is the bling-blang. It makes my polished kegs sad cause they aren't gold and shiny.
