Thanks everyone. The thought crossed my mind about increasing the pressure rather than decreasing it but I'm new to all of this. I just upped the pressure to around 13 psi and I think we're in business. I'll leave it there for now and see how the other two kegs handle it.
I didn't let it sit long before I tapped it the first time. That was probably a mistake. But it should have stabilized by now right? Or should I un-tap again and let sit over night?
Got the keg Thursday night and it was foamy which I figured was normal. Yesterday I had to re-tap due to leaving out the beer line check valve in the coupler. It was still foamy last night so I reduced the PSI and today it might be a hair better but still 2/3 foam.
I just built a keezer. Right now I'm just doing commercial kegs as my home brewing is on hold with a couple of little kids. I started with a Goose Island Harvest and a Blue Moon for the wife. 10 ft of beer line and PSI around 10. No issues just a little extra foam on the first pour. Last week I...
Anyone have any experience with the Franklin Chef Chest Freezers? They have dual temperature settings for refrigerating and freezing. I was thinking I might be able to by-pass a temp controller by going with one of these. They come in 3.5 cu ft, 5.3 cu ft, 7.0 cu ft, and 10.6 cu ft and in...
Good point about the threat of animals. We do get some deer back there and I would have to keep a close watch on my dog. Are hops poisonous to Dogs? I thought I heard that some where.
I've got a chainlink fence that just backs up to some farm land that sounds like it would work well for growing some hops. I also have a fenced-in garden next to my house where I could implement something like you have done.
Sounds like you are liking the convenience of the fence. Should I...
