    Gridmann Stainless Prep Tables:Decent?

    Wondering what everyone thinks? I realize they are SS top plated and the rest is galvanized steel, so there in lies the cheaper cost, but are they worth the money or wait for a restaurant going out of business to scoop up a stainless table one might have? 72"x24" Gridmann 36" x 24" Gridmann...

    Line Balancing Question for Jockey Box

    I have a 4 tap setup with 50' stainless coils that are 5/16" ID per tap. To serve at my planned 14PSI that means I need about 60ft in total from the kegs through the coils to the tap. Factoring in for a 3ft rise up to the table. Is it okay to use 5/16" ID line for liquid? I know its commonly...

    Show us your Custom Jockey Box!

    Wanted to get a thread going to get some design ideas from others out there. I cheated a bit and bought a premade 4 tap JB with 50' stainless coils at 5/16" ID, shanks, and Krome faucets with handles already assembled. What I'm focused on now is the actual jockey box cover. Thats where the...

    Jockey Box: Beergas, line balance, pressure

    Got 50ft SS coils at 5/16" ID. Figured about 12ft external lines heading up from keg to the box, calculated about 14PSI serving. Using that same logic if I was to serve a stout on beer gas nitro at 30 PSI that puts the length of line in the neighborhood of 140 ft including the coil. Is that...

    Blichmann Quick Carb Review

    Got the blichmann quick carb for Christmas from my wife, sister-in-law and father-in-law. The image you see here was after I fixed a few leaks. Overall I would highly recommend this product as there's no risk of over carbonating your beer. My first batch that I used on it is a custom-made...

    Blichmann Beer Gun V2 vs Last Straw w/ Foamless Finish

    So I've been kegging for years, sorta skipped the whole bottling phase in home brewing because well...its time consuming. Now I find myself giving more samples to friends and family. To be able to do that quickly would be great. Just bought the Blichmann quick carb and love its efficiency...

    Building a Home Brew & Pub Setup

    So I was able to score for $500 a 12ft custom bar made out of mostly poplar planks and 9 stools/chairs. It had a great stain finish on it. Looks amazing! CL is an amazing wasteland of stuff, just got to have the right timing it seems on there. Bought a Danby kegerator that I converted as a two...

    Greetings from Connecticut!

    Hello to all! I'm a big forum user in general, and have been a lurker for some time on here when it comes to equipment mods, not so much for recipes. I'll be sharing a few as I put together. I love IPAs, however, I don't love them enough to make my own. I feel the market is saturated with so...

    HELP! Did I screw up my first cider?

    Hello all! Long time lurker now a member. I can really use some expertise with cider. I've been brewing for about 8 years. Only in the last two years have I really kicked into overdrive. Anyways, went to my local orchard and got 12 gallons (two 6 gallon fermenters) of delish unpasteurized...
