what kind of material is this made out of?

I'd love to hear more about this!! :)

Hmm. That seems like a pretty good idea. Seems like I need another primary... :)

My primary is in a carboy so it's hard to scoop the yeast out. I was going to repitch onto the cake of what's in my primary this weekend. However, I was wondering if the old cold break proteins will have any ill effect on the new beer.

I wouldnt worry too much yet. See how it is in the am first... :)

I'd probably add the 1oz at the beginning as you don't want to lose the bittering effect. I would also add the other oz. maybe 1/2 at 20 and 1/2 at 5? If you can, I may look up and see what other hops would compliment the hops you already have and get some from your LHBS. Or just go there and...

Good luck. It's good stuff!

Can't get enough of my Chinook IPA. Mmmm....

Whoo hoo! This is exciting. Just checked and seems like my broken cane and picnic tap will work pretty perfect for this. :) I like the idea of having some bottles to be able to take to a friend's house.

I did the same thing about a week and a half ago.. WOW... it's been a great 10 days. . . :) However, I wasn't quite as patient as you. I force carbed and was drinking in less than 24 hours. It is better now, a week later. :)

What about all the proteins and stuff that settles to the bottom from the cold break and such. Is it ok to just repitch on top of that?

I went through this same dilemma last week. After reading 300 or so threads (yea I'm a little OCD), I made a conclusion that the SQ-14 was the best choice for me. It is very sturdy without modification. Its not the bestest most powerful burner but it's powerful enough and I like that it doesn't...

Brewed this yesterday. I also subbed in the Amarillo. Had a few hiccups but in the end, I got about 5.75-6 gallons. I was worried I had too much but then after seeing how much cold break I had, I hope to end up with 5 gallons in the end.

I personally, would just buy a new mini-fridge. You can get one for $150 that will do what you're looking for and is gaurenteed to work.

I just set mine up and am at 10Psi in the kegerator. Porter seems to be pouring great.. it's actually a little low on the foam. I use the creamer faucet to add a little extra head. I have 8' lines running in there so that may be part of it. . . I'm thinking about running to 12psi just to see...

Just amazing how well the search function works... :) I made a starter on Friday and wasn't able to brew yesterday. Next weekend it shall be. :(

I was supposed to brew this this past weekend but the honey-do list got in the way. Oh well. Next weekend. Unless I can get this done in the evening some day this week but that's not too promising. Oh well.

The build is coming along nicely! I've been asked by a few people for my order list. Here it is: 1. 2 Faucet Stainless Tower Homebrew Kit with Two Kegs, Ball Lock Kegs. Does not include keg nor CO2 cylinder-choose these separately. 2. Perlick Creamer Faucet, New Style, Stainless Steel...

just bought my first bottle today. need to make sure that the keg system is really clean. I've read great things. Can't wait to try it out!!

From my research, the 3 piece allows for easier cleaning. you can take it apart while it is still attached to the keg. in addition to that, and the reason I bought it, it looks badass! :) it's only $4 more than the 2 piece and its worth it for me for the looks alone. :) That's really all I...
