Shiney new 1.75 gal keg from Northern Brewer. I have an excuse to brew a 3 gallon in my Anvil since the 5 gallon Chapman's fermenters are occupied...what to brew...decisions decisions....im thinking a 3 gal Cristmas ale..keg 1.75 and bottle the remaining 1.25. I feel a Come to Jesus moment from the wife coming soon...3 fermenters at once View attachment 743225

I love those little kegs. I wish I had less 5 gallon cornies and more of those little guys!

Tracked this down on ebay it is made to sit on the tap handle of a beer engine. Plan on using it once I get my cask ale setup down the road. I can't believe how good the condition is.

It's the hand pump faucet they use in English pubs for cask ale offerings.

Consumers tend to refer to them as handpulls, because that's all they can see from their side of the bar, beer engine is more the official name that refers to the whole unit. They're never referred to as "taps" - tap is a verb in a cask pub.

A new valve, a pair of sanke to corny quick connects and other misc hardware that was ordered on 8/5 finally arrived. Albeit some items are still on back order.

I ventured into a pub or 2. I was more interested in the brew they were handing me than what tap or pull they were coming out of ! Quite a few Fullers ESB, Theakston old ale and some local British cider, can't remember the name just now ...in Gloucester England near the castle of the same name where they filmed Hogwarts in Harry Potter. Almost as equally fun as my 2 years in Germany !!!

That might be the coolest thing I’ve seen in a while!!!

 

[JAReeves]

Rechargeable batteries for all things including homebrewing, and (not by mail, but local pick up) 4 cases of flip tops and a 1.75G mini keg so I can bring pressurized beer to tailgates instead of growlers from now on.

the flip tops are for my sister who is becoming quite the mead maker.

I can see it turning round and round in your head Camonick....which of your fire engines might you get away with it. You will either go down in history as the most famous and beloved fire and rescue guy in the history of your rampart and town...or get fired and vilified...50/50 chance as I see it

RIMS tube, pump, and controller from @kleinebrouwer. Can't wait to get it all hooked up and try it out!

 

[hout17]

It's a pretty decent sized book at 356 pages should be a good read.

Bought a used kegerator yesterday and the inkbird arrived today. Starting day 1 of getting my current cream ale to lagering temps

You need to get some HBT stickers on that thing! Looks like a great setup!

I'm a fan. And I've tried some of the recipes, too. Juniper and all...

Tapcooler counter pressure beer bottler and accessories ! Woohoo !!!! Now all I gotta do is clean the 5g, 3g, and 1.5g kegs......the beer and keg lines.....the taps.., get the CO2 tank refilled tomorrow and transfer the beer Friday night. So I guess by this time next week it should be smooth flowing.
