I have my first ever 5 gallon batch sitting in my kitchen, since August. It's time. I just can't decide if I want to keg or bottle.

WOW...that doesn't even do it justice. That's beautiful. Lots of luck with the fundraiser...

I finally went with the bigger secondary regulator. It IS a beast. I screwed it down to the inside of my wood collar. Tried to get a pic...

Thanks to so many posts here, I finally made more progress on my build. Probably over engineered some things and messed a few others up, but what a sense of accomplishment... finally. Still need a thermostat controller and some tubing, but... Time to get brewing.

Just came across this post, so I’m going WAY back... anyone ever keg and then bottle carbonated apfelwein to put away? Or am I just talking crazy?

Absolutely incredible amount of work here! Thanks to all who shared, esp...Thadius? and the pic donors... Giving me the push to finish my build. Best regards!

Because this thread has been so interesting, I made my first batch ever. It has been sitting for about 5 weeks. I can't wait to eventually try it...resisting the temptation to get into it before about 3-4 months! What can people share about carbing it? By the time it's ready, I will be done with...

Kane Brewing's "Outer Reef"...I believe it was a triple IPA? Excellent.

Smoked goat shoulder looks pretty interesting...any dry rub or marinade? This past Sunday I did a tray of chicken thighs and drumsticks in a home made rub for 2 hours...finished on charcoal to crisp skin. Also had 2 cans of baked beans, 2 cans cannelleni beans in an aluminum tray for 4...

Bill: Thanks for sharing the 5 gallon recipe. I intend to try your recipe...possibly this weekend if I can get it in between my part-time sports shuttle job! Almost done my keezer build, so this might be one of the the official Christening beers.

Kevin that looks great! JPS3 as well! Go big, or go...just go! I'm waiting on my Intertap faucets...on back-order from Birdman. I've seen Johnson Thermostat controllers all wired for about $100... Anyone have any comments on those...and also how you put the temp probe through/under your collar...

Thanks, Day! I appreciate you taking the time to post it... And a good reminder to check ALL connections... But what if you want to gas up a new keg before tapping? I've seen these... But I'm trying not to break the bank all in a day of collecting components... Am I mixing my terminology here...

This thread is very helpful as I contemplate my own Keezer build...(...But it looks dormant since 2011!!!) Does anyone have any photos they can share specifically of the work/set-up they have for the manifolds...and how they have their gas systems plumbed? The 4 way manifold with gauges is...
