Ok, this online calculator(below) is so much better. It allows you to specify the inside diameter of tubing (EVA 5mm= .2031) and it measures flow rate. So I put in 15’ of line and 15’ vertical rise and adjusted the flow rate to 13 seconds per pint(which is totally acceptable for me) and I get...

OMG! I have been reading through these forums for hours looking for this EXACT post! I love you guys! I am planning the same thing for similar reason. Kegerator taking up too much space in the dining area so I moved it down to garage. I need to run approximately 15 vertical feet to get to...

So, I ordered this because the float looked like it worked better. I have since done three batches like this and its working great. The extra trub in the keg has not affected my beer in any way and the floating dip tube keeps the beer nice and clear. I recommend this method for anyone that wants...

I like the 5 gallon corny kegs because i can get my arm in there and clean them, plus you don't need any special tools, and parts are easy to find for them. I don't think having beer in the keg for a couple of months would even be a problem, especially if it's cold. I would save the money and...

I Initially worried about transfers and trub and dry hopping, but after more research and some testing of my own, I went ultra simple. I ferment, dry hop and serve right out of the same keg. I use this...

Im not sure if this is the right forum but since you guys seem to be the ones most familiar with gas plumbing and fittings I thought I would start here. I recently started a small brew club with some friends and I am looking for a way to make our group brewing session a little more efficient...

I was recently researching some low cost equipment for a friend that wants to upsize to 10 gallon batches and I saw this contraption from Academy sporting goods. I'd never heard of these guys before but they have lots of outdoor cooking equipment that could be repurposed for homebrewing...

Initial results are in and positive! After my last post I transferred to serving keg, crashed to 35F and used the burst carbonation method learned from the Brulosophy website, which is 40 PSI for 24 hours, then vented the pressure and set to my serving pressure (15) and let sit overnight. Yes, I...

I am finishing a batch at this very moment. I was reading a different pressure ferm post and read about that very yeast that Chris was talking about. It's WLP925 high pressure lager yeast and it had been moved from their vault to their primary catalog so I wonder if it's gaining popularity? I...

I actually used white labs wlp925 high pressure lager yeast. It's designed to be fermented at 68F and 15psi.I'm new to the pressure fermentation but seems like it's going well. Taking my first reading/tasting tomorrow and I will update. It's kind of maddening not being able to see the activity...

I have been very interested in this thread as I have just started fermenting in Corny kegs. My take on this was to get a keychain pill holder like this https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000SJG1E2/?tag=skimlinks_replacement-20 and replace the cheap split ring with a stainless one like these...

Need help figuring what I did wrong. I have several successful 5 gallon BIAB batches so I thought I knew what I was doing. Today I tried my first 10 gallon batch and way undershot my gravity. I followed the same process I normally do so I'm not sure where it went south. Grain bill was 19 lbs...

Thanks @TxBrew and cool pics everybody else. Here's a pic of my DIY keezer ( still in progress) a couple more faucets to go.

I guess I'll add to my Christmas list. Thanks

Cool thanks. You could throw a dart around here and hit a brewery. The current count is 156 in the county. Take a look here for more details. http://www.westcoastersd.com/sd-brewing-industry-watch/

Hi from the self-proclaimed IPA capital of the USA, which I think is hilarious because I am not even a fan of IPAs. Anyway, I'm a long time HBT lurker and a fairly new brewer. I have a year of brewing experience with about 6 months of that being all grain. I'm looking to improve my process and...

I am looking to do this as well. I searched the White Labs website and found this yeast in their yeast vault. They need 250 orders in order for them to produce and ship yeast from the Vault. Did you also pre-order from the Vault, or get from somewhere else? If you ordered from the vault...

Hello to everyone and thanks for the great posts. i am new to the forum and this thread. I’m definitely interested in this type of fermenting as i have some tight space requirements and would like to either dual purpose my keezer as fermenting chamber, or be able to use higher ferm temps under...
