    Deducting Home Brew Expenses

    Totally understand where your coming from but we write off A LOT of food and expenses, this would be a very very small slice of that and according to the IRS laws I posted above were within our rights to claim it the 50% or at least enough to argue it to an auditor.....I'm not concerned about...

    Deducting Home Brew Expenses

    Thanks for that but to me it looks like whole lot of grey area the federal IRS likely doesn't care about I'm not super concerned about running foul of Utah state laws..........you'd be surprised how much they don't care about what businesses do as long as your paying taxes.

    Deducting Home Brew Expenses

    A state I can't get anything over 5% on tap.......Utah There's a lot of support and legal backing for "cottage food production" which essentially means making food at home and then selling at local markets legally or using them for your own business needs.

    Deducting Home Brew Expenses

    This is what the IRS says as of last year for the 50% deduction There is concern that if a meal is provided solely for the purpose of entertainment, it would become nondeductible as well. The IRS’ minimum standards for a meal still allows the deduction. The standards include the following...

    Deducting Home Brew Expenses

    Right exactly, it kind of falls into a grey area by my thinking. No where in our written or published marketing, advertising or anywhere does it mention ANYTHING about "free" food or drinks so IMO it should not be considered a core business function or something we use "lure" clients. Its...

    Deducting Home Brew Expenses

    Any beer and food we provide is 100% complimentary for clients and guests as part of marketing, advertising and\or entertainment purposes which traditionally would be considered a legitimate write off.

    Beer going flat on Gas\Nitro

    I was told by several people(with BG experience serving at big parties) that using BG would resolve my foaming issues as a result of having zero line length tap lines, I didn't believe them but when I tried it actually worked. I'm running the beergas at the same pressure as I was running the...

    Beer going flat on Gas\Nitro

    Yes I am carbing with co2 only DRIVING the keg with the beer gas, I LOVE the results the first few days but then it starts to go flat :-( I got the beergas tank full and free, it allows me to mount my taps DIRECTLY on my keg with zero line length(flow control taps) and pour without foaming...

    Beer going flat on Gas\Nitro

    Good question I thought that was only if your running a stout tap? Also I'm @ 7350' of elevation if that makes a difference? Thanks!

    Beer going flat on Gas\Nitro

    Recently started using Beergas(I don't know the ratio) for pushing my kegs(instead of c02), I can get really really nice pours with ZERO line length but @ 15psi it seems like my beer is going flat pretty quickly :-( This is new to me, am I doing something wrong, any tips?

    c02 quick disconnects?

    My fermzilla is in a different part of the house from my kegerator. Id like to be able to easily move my cO2 tank so I can use it for forced transfers from my fermzilla. What are my options for reliable durable cO2 quick disconnects that don’t leak air? Thanks

    Firmzilla, non-pressure transfer?

    Interesting, guessing you must have bought some additional fittings to make this work with your spunding valve?

    Firmzilla, non-pressure transfer?

    Yea thats not a terrible idea, was hoping to avoid having to do this but I don't see why that shouldn't work, just wish they sold something specifically for simple gravity transfers.

    Firmzilla, non-pressure transfer?

    Ugg I wish it was, I love the fact that the catalyst uses standard mason\ball jars :-( in fact if they would just make a 15 gallon catalyst I would buy it tomorrow............
