I have been running into issues of having really muddy wort since I started brewing biab, I been thinking about giving my grain a good vorlauf after mashing by pouring out of kettle onto a secondary container through the grain Do you think that will give me clearer wort?

Should be fine, only one way to find out 🍼🍼🍼

I just bought a new keg and it came with over 40PSI of gas in it I don't know what gas it is, I just assumed it's CO2 and I'm about to use it to pressurize my other keg What could go wrong?

Turned out ther was a lot of gunk on the surface but there is still surface rust in multiple places Luckily there is no pitting, so I was thinking about soaking it in vinegar for a good amount of time I contacted the seller and fortunately he was willing to do an exchange so I won't be doing...

I recently purchased a used keg and I noticed there is some surface rust on the inside of the keg and on the dip tube and at the bottom of the keg there is a decent amount of rust particles Is this keg good to keep or should this amount of rust be something I need to worry about? There might...

I'm trying to look for a piece of adapter to stick into my bung hole so I don't have to keep using my 3 piece air lock for blow off I'm thinking maybe a 1/4 inch coupling like the ones below https://www.ontariobeerkegs.com/duotight-stem-1-4-barb-8mm.html...

I'm planning ahead for the future and figured at some point I will be serving 2 kegs out a single CO2 tank. That being said, I haven't purchased a CO2 regulator yet and am wondering if it's better to purchase a pressure regulator with a single gauge like this one...

Will gas leak if you don't attach a disconnect to the second gauge?

Yeah I probably will use the tower tap, I don't think I have enough resources or time to do a lot of DIY

WOW! this is really helpful, thank you @wsmith1625 as well I think I will purchase this set of items I do have a couple question though What's the difference between 5/32" ID vs. 13/64" ID What are the RETAINING CIRCLIP for? Also correct me if I'm wrong, the 1/4 shank goes into the 1/4 to 5/16...

That's really good to know, I ma consider cutting mine open as well if there's no other option, FYI the winged nut is connecting to the D-sanke coupler This end is what connects to the faucet
