You could just pick up a 2 way co2 manifold and run a low pressure standard hose into your fridge. That way you keep the tank and your current reg outside the fridge.

wow cool stuff i'm in

Russian Imperial Stout - All-Grain Recipe Kit unmilled please

pretty cool thanks for the link. Now lets have that recipe....

hmm who to believe stonebrew.com or brewdog.com :fro:

Not sure what your trying to say here, or what particular o ring failed on you. Before you start looking at o ring material. Make sure they were the right size and that you used keg lube.

yup taste it. its should be nice dry and crunchy not chewy. Its probably fine. Get it in some sealed buckets.

same happened to me. htought it was the power supply turned out to be stuck. I now pull it apart after a brew, clean and let it dry before putting it back together again.

Pretty sure thats what its for. pop off the pastic hinge cover rmove the hinge, and I bet there is a plug under there. There has to be a plug somewhere for that I vote unplug before hacking things up.

brewed this a couple times now thanks rccola. Not knowing how beersmith would calculate the corn starch. I entered it as flaked corn and added ingredients to make the 1.044 og posted. oops result was a nice full bodied mexican lager. 75% eff 5.25 gal 5# row 2 # 4 oz vienna 5 oz...

ha! I was thinking of these exact same words when I saw the pic. OP follow RM-MN's advice. looks good!

here is my report for my 3rd version of ab. I'm still in the c150 club. A couple changes to my process. I am now using a pump to whirlpool and decrease my cooling times quite a bit from just stirring with an immersion chiller. I am kegging now also. I really like chasing this recipe. 5.5 gal...

10 bucks its worth giving it a try. here is a link to mine. https://www.homebrewtalk.com/showthread.php?t=290876 works great for a fermentation/ lager chamber. still in use today.
