    New to kegging, is rust in posts normal?

    Barkeeper's Friend did the trick. Thanks for the suggestion.

    Can I get in trouble for this?

    I know a guy who is a phenomenal brewer. He also distills a bit of spirits. Apparently a relative of his married an ATF supervisor. At a family get together, said brewer inquired about the potential trouble a home distiller could potentially get in (not distributing for sale). The un-named ATF...

    New to kegging, is rust in posts normal?

    I am almost certain the brown gunk is rust. The single post in the photo (right photo) has soaked at least 24 hours in cleaner and sanitizer. I also attacked it with a nylon brush attachment for my Dremel. I followed that with a thorough attack from two different felt polishing attachments on...

    New to kegging, is rust in posts normal?

    I recently ordered a kegging setup from one of the more reputable vendors referenced here frequently. As I was breaking down the kegs for a good cleaning, I was somewhat disappointed in the condition of these "reconditioned" kegs. While the seals had been replaced, I am a bit dubious of the...

    Kegconnection.com - Black Friday AD!

    I was one of those who did not see the message about a limit of 1 per customer on the standard race lids, so I ordered two. I just called in and upgraded the one standard to the converted pin lock you mentioned in an earlier post. Unfortunetly it sounds like now the sales manager will have to...

    Oatmeal Stout Yooper's Oatmeal Stout

    I am brewing this tomorrow, it will be my 1st all grain brew. Due to a brain malfunction while in the homebrew store, I will be using 8 pounds of Marris Otter and 12 total ounces of Chocolate Malt. Hoping it goes well. Thanks for the recipe.

    Initial kegging setup that can be expanded?

    I need some advice about kegging gear to start with; especially in regards to a starting point that can be expanded down the road. I have read most of the FAQs on here and browsed around KegConnection quite a bit. My initial goal is to simply have a keg or two that will be kept in a spare...

    Cake pan + skateboard wheel + bike brakes = homemade peristaltic pump??

    That is a incredible piece of work you have created there. Are you mainly creating this as a challange just to see if you can do it? Based upon the cost, it looks like functional peristaltic pumps are available for less cost (based upon my googling - I actually had never heard for these...

    Bottling sentiment issue?

    http://probrewer.com/resources/filtration/applications.php Of course if you did that, there would be nothing left to carbonate the beer in your bottles. Yeast are you friends. Instead of trying to get rid of them, just leave them in the bottle and thank them for all the hard work to make...

    Do you get what you pay for (cheap turkey fryer kit)?

    I recently started brewing with an almost identical setup. Mine was a 36 quart version from Sam's club but aside from size and additional accesories it looks the same. I am quite happy with mine.

    Show Us Your Label

    Just using the online label generator at this point, but still having fun. The Dog Snout Stout got named with the pictured dog stuck his nose in my bottling bucket.

    Help! Bell from wing capper stuck on a bottle.......

    Ughh, I see what you mean. Personally I would probably resort to the violent use of hand tools at this point. I can think of multiple creative ways to sacrifice one bottle and cap to get my capper bell back. I don't nessessarilly suggest this course of action, but if you do be sure to wear...

    Help! Bell from wing capper stuck on a bottle.......

    I have the same capper you do. I just messed around with mine and found out the bell piece can come unscrewed. See the threads inside the top of the bell? Those go onto a stem that surrounds the base of the magnet. Since I don't see any red plastic down in the threaded area of your bell...

    American IPA Dogfish Head 60 Minute Clone (AG) & Extract

    Thanks for the recipe. I just brewed the extract version today. My first non kit brew. All was well. However the continuous hopping schedule severely impacted my consumption of beer, hummus, and chips during the brew process. Lots of little containters floating around. I am pretty sure a...
