The 30 psi regulator from Amazon has a safety. To reset it you need to disconnect from the tank. Open your tank slow to keep from tripping this safety.

The galvanized pipe can flake off and plug your system up.

Its cheeper then what I just paid here.

Here is what I have so far. Going to keep using my cooler for mash tun for awhile. It will be on top rack until I get a kettle. Then the top rack will be going away. Next thing is to order some burners this week.

Another thing about a keezer is. Do you want to lift a 1/2 barrel up and over the edge? As for the 5lb CO2 it would work just fine. There are web sites that say it would last 5-7 half kegs. I have a 5lb and it cost me around $20 to get a full one. Planning on moving up to a 20lb tank I hear...

Just priced out wire. I came to the conclusion that it is preaty close to the same price per pound. HD has lincolin brand for $12 for a 1 lb spool and HF has there brand for $24 for a 2 lb spool. Now I could have misread something. But to me it looks to be the same price.

I was pitching my yeast and didn't get it all into my carboy. Might start using a funnel now. I do have some fermentation. My question is should I pitch more yeast or just leave it? The strain of yeast is London ale (wyeast 1968).

I like to hoard things so I need one.

Okay got it just one for bittering.

Planning on doing a sweet stout and I can't seem to figure which hops to use. I was thinking about using fuggles for bittering and kent goldings with a pinch of cascade for aroma. Anyone have any thoughts or opinions?

I have three kegs in there right now. The third is just sitting in there conditioning. Don't know if I can get the fourth one in there. This freezer measure a little different then a new 7 cubic foot GE. Might be able to slide one in if I put the CO2 outside or build a collar. Don't go...

Here is a video of my keezer build not has nice as jester's but I like it.
