    Anchor closing?!

    Don't feel bad. I'm usually late as well, and always a dollar short....... Good news either way.

    Favorite of experienced brewers.

    LOL! Define "American Craft Beer". There's a huge difference between Bud Light and a light lager offering from a craft brewery. That being said, and noticed you're from Iceland, my experience with Icelandic craft beers is pretty limited.....ok, maybe just limited to the brand below. It is a...

    Favorite of experienced brewers.

    Right on brother! * fist pump * Been brewing for 12 years, but not as much as I'd like to the last few years. What I have brewed is usually a simple sessionable hoppy APA or a lager. I'm not so kin on the high ABV beers anymore.

    Nukatap and/or Intertap individual part availability?

    If the retailer, which is pretty much all of them, is going to just ship out a brand new kit when these seals break, is it really going to matter? My two Nukataps both have failed red PE seals. The don't leak for the most part, but having to take out the individual pieces, make sure not to lose...

    Northern Brewer - Buyer Beware

    I have some left over Czech Saaz hops I bought from them in April 2023. They have the AA listed (3.5%) in smaller print, right above the bar code.

    Northern Brewer - Buyer Beware

    Well, let me post my recent experience. I ordered some items from both More Beer and Northern Brewer. From More Beer, I ordered a Fermonster and some parts so I could have a floating diptube. I placed that order on 3/16. Two days later it shipped on the 18th and I received it on the 21st. So 5...

    Nukatap and/or Intertap individual part availability?

    Is that truly a universal part? Most of the diagrams in those links show a rear sealing faucet.

    "Brew & Wine Hobby" Store in Danvers, MA. Good or bad?

    Title says it all. Any of you all ever dealt with B&WH? What was your experience? They've been around since 1972, yet I rarely see them mentioned here unlike some of the other online vendors. They have a 1st gen Blichmann burner that I'm thinking about buying which is much cheaper than a...

    Alternatives to Worm Gear Hose Clamps?

    I have camlock fittings on my hoses. I got them from BrewHardware.com (Bobby M). His fittings have oversized 5/8" barbs on them, so 1/2" ID silicone hoses stretch over the barbs instead of having to use worm gear clamps on 1/2" barbed fittings. Bobby's fittings are higher flow too.

    Floating Dip Tube Foamer

    Totally agree. Most of my kegs have FDTs on them. The kegs I use just for serving, I don't use a filter on their FDTs since the beer is being transferred from a vessel that already has a filter on it's dip tube.

    Anvil Brewing Pump XP - first impressions?

    How important is that head rating? I have the older Chugger and it's head rating is 18ft compared to the Anvil's 10ft. The GPM of the Chugger is 7. The Anvil, 6. Is the head rating more important for 3 vessel brewers, especially those using gravity in a three tier setup?

    Is Taprite Really CM Becker?

    Or get the Komos. Bobby seems to like them. I like mine. I have two Taprites that are good too, but I've had those for a while. Maybe mine were one of the better ones in their day.

    Help Me Choose My Next Beer Glass

    I've got that same glass and it's one of my go tos. I like the nucleation too. Not just for IPAs or hoppy beers. I like the dimpled mug too, like this one. Those two, plus a 16 oz tulip and the 16 oz "Mine" glass Northern Brewer was selling when I started are my 4 main glasses I keep in the...

    Warm Fermented Lager Thread

    Would 34/70 be good for a Mexi-lager? I have the Atlantico kit from NB and was thinking about splitting the batch. 2.5 gallons with WLP-940 and the other 2.5 with 34/70. If another dry yeast is preferable I may just do a starter for the WLP-940 to ferment the whole 5 gallons.
