Hey all, Ive started my kegging setup using Sanke Kegs. So far, so good, really like them, but I do have one question regarding carbing: Is there issue with me carbing with the serving line on? Should I plug the serving line somehow until the beer is carbed, then connect the serving line...

So this happened not 5 minutes ago... A good friend of mine started a brewery, and now that he is switching to branded kegs, he gifted me a couple sixers so I can start kegging. Just so happens one of them had about a gallon left. Not knowing what it was, I decided to depressurize it and...

Hey all, I'm making a 5G batch and wanted your thoughts: 9 lbs Pilsner malt 4 oz Melanoiden Malt 1 oz Hallertau @ 60 mins 1 oz Spalt @ 5 mins This gives me 5% abv and 20.3 IBU's, any thoughts on this style? Do I ferment it like any ale?

Hey all, sorry if this has been asked a zillion times, but I'm a tad overwhelmed with all the information. So my wife agreed to let me start building my standup fridge kegerator IF I keep it cheap and I have some sparkling water. Finally! So my plan is to buy the stuff that I can use to...

So now that im getting married, amid the ocean of sheets and plates, I managed to sneak in 2 thinks into the registry I want: Perlicks and a Virtuoso grinder. With this in mind, im hoping to start trying new coffee in pursuit of some nice crema, in short i want to have small amounts of fresh...

So ive been lucky enough to never have a yeast blow the seal of my carboy...until today. I came to check on my patersbier, a 5%ish brew so nothing exorbitant, and my 1 piece bubbler was spewing krausen like a raging volcano, luckily I caught it early. Now this brew I did stuff different, I...

Visited Hill Farmstead brewery this weekend in Vermont. Nice to see a state that will fill an assortment of growlers, I pacrticularly like th epalla style hill farmstead sells, sexy thing! Anyways, waiting in line to fill the growler, I noticed a sign that read: 'will not fill clear glass...

Anyone see the movie Knights of Badassdom before? Its absolutely ridiculous, not smart at all, nor is it in any way groundbreaking...but did I have fun watching it. Plus, it has this: What are some of your other movie guilty pleasures for days when you just don't want to think, and enjoy...

Has anyone found a recipe / guide for making this amazing cider? This is the traditional drink from Asturias, Spain. Its (from what I recall) VERY carbed, quite dry. Its drank heavily in Cuban households specially during christmas. Any leads on where to look for this? Gracias

A couple of months ago, one of my girlfriends closest friends stayed at my place for a weekend, she brought her boyfriend. He is from Belgium, and we immediately started talking about beer. Today I come home and find this in my mail:

Im going thru a stage of "back to the roots" music, anyone here a fan of latin styles, caribbean music or salsa dancing? To start, one of my favorite songs. Probably the most important Puerto Rican salsa names performing Aguanile.

Sierra Nevada's Beer Camp Im sure a few of you bought these...what do you think? I bought it mostly to try a couple of names that are hard to find here, like Russian River, 3 Floyds and Cigar city. So far have only had the Victory Pilsner, its fantastic.

Im sure this has been discussed before, and for that I apologize but I cant seem to find it. I just purchased a baby pump, and want to start recirculating with my CFC. For this, I want a camlock and silicone tube system to connect to my recirc arm, so I can easily disconnect it and go to the...

I have a question for those on homebrewtalk that would rather approach things by the book. If you happen to come accross a cheap sanke keg and wish to turn it into a keggle, how do you make sure it was a decomissioned keg? Can you call the company to check and offer to return it? do you just...

I'm looking to move into kegging and figure I can also give a hand using my skills. If you need any help planning your brewery space or construction needs, I will help you out. I will produce plans and studies showing your equipment layouts and studies, and will consult construction problems...

was taking the T in from Cleveland Circle to work, and out of the corner of my eye say a small sign in between Washington Sq and Coolidge corner that said "Boston homebrew" in a locale that seemed under renovation. Anyone know anything about it? I would love to have a lhbs walking distance from...

Thought someone might be interested in these, they look good, if only a tad expensive. http://boston.craigslist.org/bmw/for/4363807062.html

Hey all, I'm submitting a stout for my first competition. It just started fermenting, but in my schedule im giving myself 5 weeks bottle conditioning. Main question is... Would you recommend I cold crash the bottles 2 days before I hand them in? Will it help any or is the time better used...

Hey all, I've never done any kegging, not know anything about the equipment. I am thinking that if possible I'd like to go sanke. Anyways, I found someone selling a couple of 1/6 sanke kegs he used for maple syrup storage for 35 each, they look in good condition. I'm thinking of buying them to...
