Hi everyone, So I tried to arrange a kegerator to fit a 10gal keg, by taking the foam off the door. The problem is that there's still about half an inch at the end of the door that won't close. I would like to keep the fridge as is. What could I add, I'm thinking in addition to the gasket, or...

Hi everyone, I'm curious to know why, as, to my surprise, googling this did not yield many obvious results, why are my stouts turning acidic. And not sour. The last 2 stouts I brewed: One where I added some Reese's puffs and some peanut butter, The other one a breakfast oat-milk and hazelnut...

Hi everyone, So now that my spunding valve is working, and fermentation has begun, I was able to see the pressure increase. I'm fermentation a lager in a keg in an environment of about 18-19C. I want to set it between 10 and 15 psi. At that level, it seems beer is literally being spit (or some...

Hi everyone, I'm getting a bit worried because I brewed what I want to be a lager yesterday, and it's been close to 16h since I pitched, and I see no signs of activity yet. I cooled down the wort to approx 21C, transferred to my fermenter, shook it well, then pitched the yeast. It's a lager...

Hi everyone, If I tighten everything pretty well, this is how my spunding valve looks like... I've tried playing around, but can't seem to get it to "look" right. Is there a way to make it look "straight" or not? I can't find a way to make my gauge face up! Haha.

Hi all, My beer has been fermenting for 1 week. No more blow-off tube activity "bubbles". OG was 1.050 and Just took gravity readings : 1.020 with the hydrometer. Next, it's a Saison yeast, so active at higher temp but it stays in a 22-23C environment, so it should be enough for it I believe...

Hi all, I've noticed I may have CO2 leaks off of my manifold, and off the bard on the gas disconnect. Interestingly, it's not consistent, and not at the same time. I notice the leak happens quite certainly between 20 and 30PSI. I noticed it last night, dropped it at 20PSI, and it seemed okay...

Hi everyone, I woke up this morning to check my kegs to an unpleasant surprise. I feel like the keg that was hooked to the CO2 almost emptied itself everywhere... and the CO2 tank empty. Last time I checked the set-up was the night before last, I was carbonating my beer. IT was near to be...

Hi homebrew community! In an attempt to find out what I could do better, I'd like to describe my brewing processes I just did yesterday, that resulted in me in an appearing 55% brewing efficiency of my batch yesterday. I'm quite frustrated obviously. If anyone experienced with that system may...

Hi everyone. I'm starting to Keg and purchased a 20lbs cylinder, supposedly close to being full. It came with a N2 regulator for which I bought a adaptor for a CO2 tank. The tank is fairly heavy, 40lbs. When I connected the regulator to my 5gal keg, in order to carbonate it, I set the pressure...

Hi all, I just got a big fridge I'll be using as a fermentation chamber/cool storing unit for my brews. I need to take off the plastic door panel as the built-in shelves take too much space inside. I looked around the rubber seal but there are no visible screws. Does anyone have experienced...

Hi everyone! I am trying myself to make a kegerator or moreso a fermentation chamber for now. I bought this fridge second hand and realized I'll have to cut and trim the plastic within the door. I've seen quite a bit of information on this, so I'm not too worried. However, 2x5Gal kegs still...
