2 keggles cut with ports 1 keg 5 Corny kegs 2 LP tanks KAB4 burner Copper immersion chiller 2 CO2 tanks. This stuff hasn't been used in several years and definitely needs cleaning. Burner probably needs a new hose, and the tanks probably need inspection. $300 for all of it as is. I'm not...

I brew 10 gal, so I have two Cornies of the same beer in my kegerator right now, and both have been force carbed at the same pressure. They're on a split hose. I tapped the first keg two weeks ago and it was really foamy, so I just moved the liquid line over to the other keg which was...

I have an entire trash can sized recycling bin full of bottles free to anyone who wants them. I'm in Pasadena, MD. They're getting recycled tomorrow morning, so if you want them and can pick them up in the next week respond before 8 AM EDT. Probably 3/4 of the bottles are 22oz bombers with...

I purchased some tubing for an IC from these guys on July 15th, and just noticed that the charge came through on my card overnight. I called them and the person I spoke to said that their website provider had the credit card functionality set to authorize only and that they just finalized all...

I'm planning on using a 5000 BTO Haier window unit air conditioner to refrigerate the bar I'm building. I'd like to wire up a temperature controller to switch an outlet which would power the A/C. I'll either move the built-in temp probe to the outside or override it, as needed. I'd pretty...

I'm finishing out the first floor of my split level house and as a result I'm able to build in a custom bar. I don't have a huge amount of space and I wanted to maximize the number of Cornies I could get in there so I'm building a custom insulated refrigerated space under the bar. I've had a...

I've just begun finishing out my basement and have permission from SWMBO for a kegerator. I've been reading all the threads I can find about cold boxes. I'm interested in doing a cold box style powered by either a mini-fridge or mini upright freezer (like a Kenmore 5.0 or maybe 7.2), which...

Ok, I have some 750ml bottles of Blueberry varietal mead (not a melomel). It was made with a gallon of honey in 5 gal batch and fermented to just under 1.000. It's been bottled sparkling, with our attempt at about 3 atmospheres. I have one bottle that's been in my fridge at 41F for three...

Ok, so we're on our 5th AG, and b/c of various constraints we've decided to do a partigyle that will give us 5 gal of high grav and 10 gal of low/medium grav (by our standards). I'm not worried at all about the partigyle part of this, actually. We have a 70qt Coleman eXtreme MLT. That's...

Ok, so some of you may know I got an awesome buy off Craig's list a while back. Part of it is a three tier stand with three keggles. Really pretty cool. Here's some pix: http://picasaweb.google.com/justin.cann/3Tier Now I was trying to sell the stand alone for a while b/c I didn't really...

I've been thinking about this for a while and I finally did it tonight! I cooked a stir fry with my wok on my LP burner. Turned out great! SWMBO said it was my best stir fry ever. My mom took my daughter to the farmers market this morning and so I had green beans three bell peppers (yellow...

I bought a CO2 regulator used a while back and when we first started using it we may have gotten some beer back up into it (for reasons I can't entirely recall). Well we've got it figured out at this point, but I was wondering if there was some way of measuring the accuracy of the regulator's...

We just did our second AG and after the mash we had collectd 13 gal of wort from the following grain bill: Amount Item Type % or IBU 20.00 lb Pale Malt, Maris Otter (3.0 SRM) Grain 89.89 % 2.00 lb...

We're about to do our second AG, and I'm switching to Beer Smith at the same time, so I have some questions about setting it up. We have keggles and a 70 qt MLT and use an immersion chiller. On the equipment tab under "Mash Tun": "Mash Tun Weight" I simply weighed the MLT (19lbs). Does...

We're about to do our second AG on Sunday and I muddled through our first one with regards to designing the mash in ProMash. I hope someone who batch sparges and uses ProMash can help me out on exactly how to enter it in the mash schedule so I can figure out volumes and temperatures, etc...

If Duchamp were still around, he could find some awesome readymades in our homebreweries, I'm sure! I hope someone picked it out of the trash when his sister and step-sister threw it out and put it back to the use for which it was intended. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bottle_Rack

So I used a grinder to cut a lot of slots in copper tube for my new collection manifold, but the slots seem a bit wider than others I've seen. Am I going to have problems with this? http://picasaweb.google.com/justin.cann/MoonpileSBeerPix/photo#5168362281046800242 (Anyone else have...

Just passing this along. Of course if it passes it just makes it that much easier to justify homebrewing related expenses to SWMBO!

I'm sick with a sore throat wishing I had brewed my self a batch of this a year or so ago. Throat Coat Tea + Honey + Yeast (and nutrient, etc).

Would anyone care to share their experiences with this 16.5 gal plastic bucket style fermenter? How are they for durability? Can one or two guys move it around easily? Do the handles just pull out under load or anything? How well do they seal? I just realized the lid and sealer were...
