Bump

I'm happy with my SS BrewTech Keg washer that I just picked up, PBW, Rinse, and StarSan Buckets for 10 mins each. I think it does a good job

I use Great Western a lot here, 55# for $48

Sweet, just picked one up. Looking forward to your progression

Is that a Sears Kenmore Freezer? 8.8cu?

Thank you so much everyone, I was making it too complicated for myself being the first time while being slow of mind anyway. One last questions since no one hit on it. I'm going to just to go with the hook it up, input 10-12psi and let it sit for 10-14 days, maybe the whole 30 PIS and shake...

Okay, I'm confused. Read a bunch threads here, and comments. Looked at a few videos on you tube, but still dumbified. I already sanitized my 5 gal corn ball lock keg. When I transfer my IPA into the keg, and right below the gas in tube, according to the chart storing this beer at 36F...

When you account for a 3 or a 5 Day Dry Hop Time, do you typically Dry hop for those 3 to 5 Days then Cold Crash for say 2 Days, or do you also figure in those cold crash days into the 3 to 5 day Dry hop. i.e. Dry Hop 1 Day, Cold Crash 2 Days for the 3 Day? Makes sense for me to do 3 days of...

Thank you everyone for your replies. Does this sound right? I divided (from my recipe) 11 lbs of 2-row by 8.75 gal for 1.25lbs per gal so......1.25 x 12 gal = 15 lbs for my 12 gal batch. Do this for each ingredient? If so, "duh" on my end @beernutz I found this recipe and copied it from...

Hi, so...I did this light Lemon Ale recipe once before in as a 6 gal batch. I liked it so much I tried to double it up for a larger batch. Originally I thought it was juuuuuust a little too light bodied. By mistake for my second larger batch I didn't sparge enough and ran short to my Boil...

Thanks Crazy al, I’m now halfway there, guess no need

I used two packets and just discovered I SHOULD have hydrated them. It’s been a week. So I guess without hydration I basically used 1 pack will cell count loss...should I hydrate one pack and insert?

Am doing a double batch of this. But no active fermentation. I've never used dry yeast before, last time I used a British white labs. Was I suppsed to double up on the dry packets (4). I'm getting mixed info when doing a search. Thanks

I am doing a 10 gal (9 actual Gal)batch in my SS Brew Chron (14 Gal) and didn't think about my FTS coil being able to be deep enough in the ferm to make contact with the wort. I should have changed the recipe to make more beer so the coil would be more submerged. So here's my question. I...

Okay, so you got about 4.5 - 4.75 gal in the ferm. Think that seems about right when I did this batch too. I remember it being small
