    Help new kegging issue

    just set up my new keg system from northern brewer and can hear a gas leak from the grey disconnect tap. It’s coming from where I put an arrow on the pic. If I put my finger over it I hear a squeal noise. Should I call northern brewer or is there something I can do. It only appears to hiss when...

    Keg / PSI / Temperature

    I too put the probe in a bottle of water. and its set to 42 degrees as its an IPA and i guessed that would be a good temperature for it. I haven't done anything else yet. i've read so many different posts i don't know which way to turn. Some recommend 30PSI for 2 days and then dropping down...

    Keg / PSI / Temperature

    Hi - (First time kegging) I'd like advice on suitable chest freezer temperature and recommended PSI please for a 5gallon keg of Chinook IPA. Using a 5lb tank of Co2. I assume once i get advice on the temperature I'll be able to use a chart i found online for figuring out the PSI. Thanks.

    NB Chinook IPA

    Devil sounds like we brewed on the same day. I’m dry hopping on Saturday and will keg the week after. Did you move yours to secondary or leave it in primary?

    Stick on thermometers

    So in secondary the temperature should be increased to around 72?

    Stick on thermometers

    So out of interest if the exact temperature is green, what does the orange and blue mean?

    Any imperial IPA kits?

    When buying beer I love a high ABV and IBU beer with a great aroma like an imperial IPA. Has anyone brewed any good extract kits that they recommend?

    NB's Chinook IPA

    Appreciate your opinion, thank you for responding. So do i add the hops to the first carboy after primary is done and just leave it for another two weeks (which takes it to 4 weeks). Then siphon it to the bottling bucket?

    NB's Chinook IPA

    My Chinook IPA is ending primary fermentation. I started reading on here that a lot of people don't move it to secondary. So I looked at my instructions and it says moving it to secondary is optional. I guess thats one less job moving it to secondary but what are the advantages and...

    Mines extract from NB I read finished gravity should be 1.010 Mine reads 1.006 as it’s moving into secondary.
