    Regulator issue

    I just got a new regulator in the mail and cannot get it to hold a steady pressure. Not the normal problem of pressure dropping due to a leak though, the pressure creeps higher over time. With the regulator I currently use if I have it dialed back as far as possible and open the tank my gauge...

    Primary regulator conversion

    I've got an older tap-rite primary regulator with single gauge (no high pressure that shows tank level). I'm setting up a keezer and want to pick up a new primary with both gauges so that I don't wind up running out of gas at inopportune times. Wondering if I can disconnect the tank connection...

    Head space pressure decreasing

    So I've kegged a few batches and noticed the same thing occuring that I haven't read about anywhere, though it may be my system. I have a kegs in a fridge dispensing through party taps, only hooked up when dispensing. I connect CO2 once a day and fill to 12psi. During the first week or so...

    Time to secondary?

    I've got 10 gallons of black lager that's been in primary since 11/27. I used WLP820 which a bit of research suggests is a slow fermenter. The airlock is still bubbling once every 10 seconds so I'm not worried about the current gravity, I figure it will come down. It has been at a near...

    Rheostat Help

    So I just fried a fan and am now trying to figure out why, I think I chose the wrong rheostat but figured I'd ask to be sure. I've got a 24V 0.6amp brushless fan, and a 24V 1amp power supply (both DC). I picked up the radio shack 25ohm 3watt rheostat. I was trying to connect up directly to...

    WTB: R - style poppet

    Looking for a poppet like #5 on this pic. I mistakenly ordered number 4 and it just isn't worth it to send them back. Wondering if anyone has a pair of #5's in good condition laying around that they might want to sell for a reasonable price. Just don't want to spend $7 on poppets and $7 on...

    Calculating the second runnings of a partigyle?

    I recently brewed a blegian dark strong using the runoff from a single mash, and then added 5lbs of Pearl and pulled a second batch out of the tun. I know my expected gravity at 75% efficiency from the first beer (I guess I also know any other percentage given that number), and I can add...

    DFH squall yeast

    Just bottled a beer that was fermented with the dregs of DFH squall. Anyone have any experience with this yeast they want to share? I know, little late as I already did a brew with it, but I washed the yeast and saved it for future batches. Was hoping to get others experiences with flavors...

    Newish to the craft

    Hey all, Been poking around learning about the intricacies of brewing. Just getting into all-grain, the site has been a great resource. I'm in Northern VT which seems to be a great spot to be getting into the craft. Thanks for all the info.
