5.25 gallons in the Catalyst fermenter.
For Christmas we got several 50ml tubes for yeast to be frozen and stored. That looks cool!
Do you prime beer in the mancan like bottled beer or does it get charged with external CO2?Bottled and kegged 10 gal batch of AHS Texas Red. ABV came in a bit higher @ 6.2 instead of 5.6. Was very smooth and balanced. Ukegs should be ready by this weekend.View attachment 714240
It's charged with external CO2 cartridge,Do you prime beer in the mancan like bottled beer or does it get charged with external CO2?
I have some kegland mini kegs that I have had some issues with oxidation, have you had similar issues with your mancan?
Thanks for the reply. I suspect there might be an issue with the o-ring that seals the top. Looks your top snugs up before you get metal to metal, which does not happen with my kegland setup.It's charged with external CO2 cartridge, View attachment 714384to date I haven't had any oxidation issues with the mancan.
After building tonight's house-heating inferno,
Do you freeze 'em to mush 'em up a bit?Dunked 6# of crabapples in sanitizer. Going to halve and core them to eliminate seeds and then they go into the freezer for an upcoming secondary.
Yes. They are for a sour I am making for Christmas 2021.Do you freeze 'em to mush 'em up a bit?
I think I saw that on an episode of Mission: Impossible...Tried out a new standard CO2 regulator on my office keg. I could never get the small regulators to quit leaking! This one is great, the big 74 gram CO2 canister holds right at 900 lbs for a week, no leakage. Dialed right up to 10 lbs like my big CO2 tank and regulator and holds it there!View attachment 714435
I do like the beer items on the wall. Reminds me of when folks collected QSL cards from radio stations and put the cards on the wall.Rearranged my brew space to provide a little more storage, a little more room for storing and milling grain, and a place to sit while waiting for the timer to count down on brew days.

I see the remotes, where's the bigscreen tv? You aren't going to cover up that beautiful 6-pack carrier wall, are you? Looks fantastic by the way.Rearranged my brew space to provide a little more storage, a little more room for storing and milling grain, and a place to sit while waiting for the timer to count down on brew days.

What I did for beer today
According to the serial # that fridge was built in 1959. In the late ‘50s Chevy had a color that was called “Surf Green”, although I always thought it looked like Turquoise. That color is an almost exact match for the color of the fridge.I have to admit it was the fridge that stuck in my mind not the TV, don't think I ever seen one that color before.
