    Simple Isinglass question -

    I'm a novice homebrewer helping my wife in what is our first experience making wine. We've just racked the wine out of secondary for clarifying. Sulfite and Potassium Sorbate have been added, as well as Isinglass. We were supposed to top off the wine with water, but didn't have any...

    Alternatives to CO2 manifold?

    So I've got a 3 keg system running on dual regulators. I need to split one of the lines at least two ways. Do I really need a manifold, or can I just put a T-connection in one of the lines? I don't really see what the difference would be. What are the pros and cons? I'm looking to hook up...

    Force carbing my first kegged batch(es)

    I got my kegging setup finished today and kegged two batches. I've got pressure on both set at about 12 pounds for carbing. Just peaked to check the temperature inside the chiller, and I smell beer. I assumed that the kegs would seal tight enough that smell would be trapped in. All seals are...
