I know this thread is old, but I just went through an ordeal with my female black lab. I had a tin of hop extract outside and unbeknownst to me someone had taken it off the table that it had been on for months and put it on the ground. My black lab started panting hard like she had sprinted...

I am located in North County San Diego (Oceanside) and I am moving to Vista in a few days. I picked this kegerator up from Booze Brothers Brewing right before they went commercial and were selling their home variety gear/equipment. I've not used it very much over the past 2 years as I'm not a...

Yah need to bust it open and see what's going on. The diffuser plate can get clogged super easy as it's only a few little holes. I had the same issue when I got my stout tap.

I saw it and my inner geek was offended by how incorrect the set up was.

Yes, it is normal.

I haven't read through all of the posts, but from what I did read you've gotten plenty of sound advice. In my experience with dealing with the man, it's usually best to just take the path of least resistance and make them go away. It's usually money or some box that needs checked and it...

This has been a recent discovery of mine as well. I'm 33 years old and I'm just now hearing this term for the first time a couple of months back. I'm told it means a hoe or slutty girl. I know every generation has their phrases or words that are nonsense but is used all the time, but this one...

When have you cleaned your drying tree? Just a thought, you could unwittingly infecting your bottles with the tree. In any case, at some point you have to start the process of elimination. Buy a couple brand new bottles see if you still get it, use the glass carboy, check, so on...

Welcome brother. I'm in Oceanside. We'll have to swap PB Stout recipes sometime.

Count me in.

I'm not math geek, but I do know a thing or two about boyles law from scuba diving. Seems to me there's something there you should look into. Also, I used the magical space aged google machine and found another site that seemingly has it all figured out...

Pretty much what I just got done doing with one carboy and 3 kegs this past weekend. My personal rule is to always sanitize before using as well. If the piece of equipment seems dirty or dusty from sitting in my garage regardless of how recent I went through my cleaning process, I clean it...

I'm in.

If anyone else tries this recipe, please let me know how it turns out and your thoughts on it. I'm always open to new ideas.
