    Kegco pop

    Here is my kegco dual tap. I also purchased from bev factory in SD. My wife has heard the "poping" noise in the middle of the night. I myself have not. She said it sounded like it has coming from the inside almost as if the keg was expanding. These are her words of course and she was a bit...

    First time kegging

    After disconnecting my regulator my plastic washer was still on the end of my regulator connection but a brass ring and a rubber washer fell out of the connection. After a few attempts I realized that the tank has a little piece that sticks out of the middle of the fitting and can actually be...

    First time kegging

    Do you know if it makes a diff keeping your c02 tank inside or outside of kegerators or keezers? I read that my tank may not last as long keeping it inside the kegerator at such a low temp.

    First time kegging

    Yeah. Nope. I guess I was too exited about not having to bottle I skipped that step. I'm using ball lock connection. I'm going to go spray connections with soapy water or star san

I set my c02 at 12 psi and placed my happy full keg in my newly purchased kegerator that i got from bev factory http://www.beveragefactory.com/draftbeer/kegerators/dualkegerator/Kegco_K309SS-2_dual_faucet_kegerator.html (pretty proud of this puppy) When I...

    New to kegging

    I was planning on force carbing by putting about 12 lbs in and letting it sit at room temp. If I prime it with sugar naturally how much c02 would I want to put in if the keg will be sitting at room temp

    By natural carbing you mean using priming sugar

    New to kegging

    Ok so I just received my new keg setup purchased from morebeer. I have a citra ale that has been dry hopped for 10 days. I am currently on the hunt for a new kegerator or fridge that I can convert. Can I keg my citra and just let it sit at room temp like I used to do with bottles or should I...

    New to kegging

    Can I prime my batch and transfer into keg and let sit without the use of c02? I currently have a keg but no regulator or c02 tank yet. They are ordered just not here yet.

    Question about sugar for before I bottle

    After I boil 4oz of corn sugar or dex in 2 cups water. Should I let it cool before adding to my brew before I bottle or is it ok to mix in while it is still hot? Just wondering what others do?

    Fermentation chamber

    Room is not an issue so I'm thinking if I can get it I'm going for it.

    Fermentation chamber

    Not sure if it's free yet. I know that commercial beverage coolers of this size go for 1200-2000. I know that a chest freezer conversion will only run me about 300 or so total. I'm thinking if I have to pay 500 for this it is worth it.

    Fermentation chamber

    Have been considering doing a chest freezer for a chamber. Today a buddy of mine sent me this picture from work and asked if I was interested. Looks like I good setup to me. If I add a good shelf I think I could fit at least 4 carboys. Has anyone used a cooler like this?

    OG reading after pitching yeast

    So, I am still quite new at this with only 3 brews under my belt. Yesterday I was brewing an American pale ale and got caught up drinking and talking during the process and took my OG reading AFTER pitching my yeast which was 1.041. My recipe called for an OG of 1.052-56. Are my numbers off...
