    Regulator - do I need another o-ring

    I found a bunch of threads on leaking CO2 tanks but wanted to provide a picture to sanity check myself... This is my regulator gas connection. Do I need to use the separate nylon O-rings that come when I get a tank refill? Or does that white plastic part (it's removable) on the end work as...

    Hopbot Extract DIIPA

    I've put together a recipe for my first attempt at an extract (with steeping grains) DIIPA. I'm interested in trying out both Simcoe and Columbus, so I thought I'd use those two hops primarily. I haven't made a hop-bomb of a beer yet, and I decided it's about time. Any thoughts on the hop...

    Leaky Fermenter

    Hi all - I'm on my third batch and I believe I've got a leaky fermenter (bucket). The evidence: 1) First batch bubbled very hardcore 2) Second batch I saw no bubbles, but it did ferment down (not to the FG that I wanted, but was done. Had a low OG so I thought perhaps that was the...
