Can anyone confirm that you can fit three 5 Gal soda kegs and a 5# CO2 tank in the Idylis 5-cu ft from lowes?

Magic Chef 5.0 cu. ft. How many kegs.. The pic is not working on the first page. I have 3 5Gal Soda kegs. I'm hoping i can fit those in with the Co2 tank on the hump. Is that possible?

So about a year ago.. or longer. Let just say it was a year ago. I honestly don't know how long it has been. Anyways, I bought a wine kit (wine expert - Island Mist kit) from the local Brew shop. I got it into the primary and that is where I stopped. Normally it goes to a...

what is Ve and Vt? So i can better understand what your saying.. thanks. Edit* I understand.. thanks 7.291667/47.291667*.95 = .1464 (14.6%)

Please tell me if this is correct. I've converted to cups. 24 cups of water 8 cups of lemon 8 cups of stawberry 7.291667 cups of clear total volume = 47.291667 cups 7.291667 *.95 = 6.92708365 cups of 100% alcohol 6.92708365/47.291667 = .1464 (14.6%).

That is why i posted w/out a hydrometer. I knew I wouldn't be able to use it. I know how to calculate when brewing as i do that often with my wine and beers. However, this time my lady just asked me to make this for her for the summer. I knew there was some sort of formula. I didn't...

I'm sorry ahead of time if this is not in the correct place. Mods Feel free to move it to the correct location. My lady asked me to make this Stawberry Lemonade for her. Im always brewing beer and wine.. So it seemed simple enough. However, I'm trying to figure out an easy way to figure the % of...

I also have a question about cleaning some older carboys. Im not here to hijack.... I got a few smaller 3 or 4 gal carboys. I know a girl whos Ex husband who made home brew. She told me to come by and grab all his old equipment. These things are NASTY. I was told they were used for brew...

What works better to kill yeast and stop fermentation after back sweeting? Potassium metabisulphite(PM)? or Potassium sorbate(PS)? Or would apply best in my situation. I want to bottle this tonight. Or would it be worth while to add the PM or PS in a secondary and wait a week.. then back...

So I needed to let it go longer in primary?? The gravity was at .097. I assumed it was good to go. I didn't have any bubbles for days. However, I did back sweeten because it was a little dry. What should I add to stop fermentation before bottling. I ask this because I have...

I made a 2 gal batch of grape wine. I used 2 gallons of Welch's grape juice and added about 4 cups of sugar. Let it ferment for about 3 weeks then bottled. When I transferred from primary to bottle bucket I added potassium sorbate. I added the correct amount as stated on the container for my...

Can you post or message me the Cherry Limeade recipe?

I see in the recipe post that some people have aged this for like 7 months. Is that a real thing? Seems like a really long time. I guess i can transfer it to some empty Gallon milk jugs to age for another 4-6 months.

I have not measured mine yet. The recipe said it could be around 13%. I followed the recipe 100%. Like of recipe is on First post.

Update! So this was made on 3-11-15 and it is now 6-3-15. I have added Apple flavoring to the batch, extra cinnamon sticks. I took a glass and added sugar to back sweeten... Its just... This stuff is just down right NASTY. I have narrowed down the part I don't like. Its the Nutmeg. NOT...

I have a buddy who has approached me asking about making wine. He has acquired a 50Gal wooden barrel that had raspberry wine that aged for a number of years. We want to make a simple wine that could fill the barrel and let it age. We think it will allow our wine to absorb that flavor. Any...

So it has been 29 days.... Should i let this sit longer? or can i do something with it? and what should i do? I have not touched it since the 1st.

I hardly understand what was said above. I followed the recipe. Why did i get different results then Everyone else?

I'm sorry the reading was .05 not 1.05. I miss read my note.

Update: So I racked it last night to a secondary. Took a measurement and got .015 ish. The thing that worries me is i took a taste. It was NASTY. Sour and tart. I guess kinda dry.. No apple taste at all. I can taste the overwhelming clover from the honey? Is it because it needs back...
