I have to measure but since the bottom of the keg is concave I think the dip tube is more like 1 in to 1 1/2 in from the bottom. i'll double check. I do fly sparge and I am usually pretty good about pouring the sparge water evenly over grain bed and keeping a couple of inches of water on top of...

So i have been brewing all grain for about a year and have been using a 10 gal cooler to mash with bazooka screen. I want to make bigger batches so I converted a keg with a false bottom. Since I moved to the keggle my efficiency has been way off. With the cooler I was getting around 75% eff. Now...

Cool thanks

I am getting into using camlocks. I bought an F style camlock to screw into my stainless ball valve. Is Teflon tape needed when screwing the f cam into the ball valve? Can't find the info on bargain fittings.

Ya, I normally don't worry about this sort of thing but I guess the combination of the boiling wort and a rubber washer scared me. Thanks

So I was brewing and when I had 15 min left I put my wort chiller in the pot to sanitize. When I did the rubber washer in to hose adapter part fell into the boiling wort. I wasn't able to find it until the boil finished and all the wort was in a carboy. Should I toss the batch? I'm not worried...

Bump for Friday

No I won't be mashing any other base malts. Ill just be using 5.5 gal of the premade wort. I used beer calculus and if I steep the 6lb it should bring me to 1.070 according to them. 6lb does seem like alot and I was wondering if people do actually steep this much grain.

I will be attending a group brew day and a local brewery is supplying everyone with premade 2row wort with a OG of 1.050. I was wondering how I can add specialty malts to this. I know steeping is an option but can you steep ~6lb of specialty malt? I want to turn this premade wort into a porter.

Thanks for the replys

Ok, so I did something real stupid. I made 2L starter last night for my washed yeast and for the most part all was going well. I left the starter cool down for a while. I checked the temp a little while longer and it was around 120 deg so I left it alone. This is when I screwed up..... I got...

I don't think you can use corn flakes. Flaked corn looks different then corn flakes. I think people have used instant grits instead of flaked corn though.

Just make sure you keep your fermentation temps below 65 with the notty yeast. My second batch of this brew came out tasting like bananas.

This has been kegged for about a week and is super clear. Really crisp clean taste!

Have three chrome faucets with no shanks. Looking to make jockey box. Need 3 or 4 inch shanks.

I just kegged a five gal batch of this recipe. I cold crashed it and it was super clear. I just tried a small practically carbonated sample and it tastes good to me but I was wondering what this beer is supposed to taste like? I can really taste the corn. It's not over powering but I can taste...

Thanks for everyone's input. I'll pass on these

They were shipped with apple juice in them. Not sure if they are stainless. The inside is white so I was worried it would leech during the boil.
