I have had growlers stay carbonated for 24 hours after opening it was definitely from the flavor bomb

I'm not sure why it killed the carbonation I had an esb and I added EKG pellet hops the first two pours were not bad but after 3-4 hours the last pour was very flat I have not tried with leaf hops I don't know if they would work better or not

I used these in two growlers and it took the carbonation away not sure how they work with bottles though

I have brewed this three times every time I dry hop one with cascade and one with Amarillo and Both are great awesome recipe I am curious about the simcoe I love me some simcoe

I agree with the 1' per psi I also carb at 12 psi and have 10-12' lines and have great pours and great carbonation off of 3/16" lines

Thanks man I bought an outdoor extension cord and cut off the female end and then cut the male ends off of the pumps . then wired it as you would a switch . Ill take a picture of it later on this afternoon .

Thanks a lot. I gave up on the mirror finish for the keggles and went for the brushed look haha . I read your thread and it makes perfect sense about the air pocket . I did have some troubles with air in my lines . The instructions for chugger said the head could be rotated for which direction...

I'm not too sure how it will hold up . I know I'm down to bare metal around the burners. Good to hear yours is not rusting . I think even if the galvanized strut does start to rust it will take a long time before it needs to be replaced and I'm not worried about how it looks as long as it...

Thanks guys . I got my strut from hd it was gold finish but it burned off rather quickly during my water test . I figured it would take a long time for it to rust out and for $20 per 10' I could just replace the top rails if I ever even need to .

So after about a month of work and ordering parts my stand is complete . I'm actually kind of sad it's done I had a lot of fun building it . But on the other hand I'm pumped to brew on it this weekend . I picked up all my ingredients today for my first 10 gal batch . Thanks for all the help and...

Tonight I got my hlt keggle set up ,installed my pumps on my stand , put together misc fittings , packed some equipment up so my friends can brew tomorrow and picked up a random six pack of some good beers for tomorrow. Overall it was a good night for beer

Not a problem at all I hope it helped out. Good luck on your build and have fun building it

I had the same issue I have a 10" miter saw with a metal cutting blade . It wanted to flex while cutting but it worked for sure . I went to hd as well and your right its slim pickings there , also at lowes. Strut channel .com was the way to go . I had a lot of fun with mine also and it was not...
