    Cane Sugar...? In a pinch

    When I was bottling I exclusively used table sugar or brown sugar. Google tasty brew priming calculator and its will give you quantities for the various types of sugars to get the volumes of carbonate desire.

    New Keezer Question!

    Is this a problem specifically with the Johnson temp controlers? My ranco temp probe has been floating in mid air for the past year+ and i've never had any issues? Don't miss-read me, I'm not questioning you... i've just never heard this before and don't wanna kill a perfectly good keezer.

    New Keezer Question!

    One thing I've done (and others have as well) to combat the airt temp consistency issue is take an old computer fan and wire it into an old cell phone charger. Plug the charger into the temp controler (i used a 3way plug) I set this on up in a corner and it circulates air when the freezer is on...

    keg equipment taking delivery taking forever

    I'd personally want some clear answers or else cancel the order. When i'm spending that kinda money, i want a little customer service. I've done all my orders over the phone with kegconnection.com and they are great.

    Saving a beer that fermented hot?

    If it was Belgian yeast you're gonna be great! I let a blonde on Notty go through a weeknqith no AC last summer and it got into the 80s and tasted like pure liquid sulfur. I'd say bottle it and see what happens

    Propane Burners

    Electric wiring for fans in a keezer

    Forget walmart... Talk to any IT guy and he'll het you a fan from a fried computer, then go to goodwill and get. A DV charger for less than $1.50. Doing this and puttin a fan in my keezer was one of the best choices I've made since getting kegs.
