Thanks But can it make you vomit badly if not rinsed. The pink cleaner ? There are no ingredients on it…

I think I may not have rinsed keg properly after cleaning? I use that pink cleaner. And why do the call it pink stain remover??? I might be sensitive to it, and the beer hasn’t been great. That is what is on my container. Is this a bit of a slip up. Buying cheaper clothes cleaner and charging...

Hi I put a post up the other day about being sick from a beer. It happened again. The beer I’m drinking is a yeast I have not used before but had before. And I’m sure had some of this batch before. But yesterday I bought everything up and I mean everything. Very strange. Can you be intolerant...

always preferable :)

Hi I hope this helps others... Ok so this is what happened... Tapped off beer into plastic 2 lt bottle. Flat. Left on top of fridge for months. Needed to use bottle. Opened. Carbonated. Thought oh great... maybe ok now. Took a sip, quite good but tipped rest out as needed the bottle. 2 hours...

Bubble rate picked up, still a lot less than normal but everyone can stop worrying 😝

I was in the room for a while and doing something, heard a bubble every 2 minutes maybe so is working.. I have found that yeast not as active or is this too slow, 20 degrees..been about 48 hours, but did read can take 72 hours to get going properly.

Hi I used a premium yeast from coopers. 48 hours and no bubbling. I think last time was slow or didn’t even bubble. Not sure. But I made a starter and seemed ok with a small head of bubbles. Not sure if I should through kit yeast in? But never had success after opening fermenter. Oxygen seems to...

duotight 8mm (5/16) x Ball Lock Disconnect - (Black + Yellow Liquid) Anyone ideas if you need a clamp on the beer (or gas line if using red gas connect) - It seems you can push on tight, and have not seen any image or video with them, nothing in docs. thanks edit..This all new ball lock...

Thanks

Hi There, I bought a Refractometer - the one you look through to read through read percentage, however bought for a car . "Automotive Antifreeze Refractometer Car Urea Fluid Tester Battery Freezing ATC Detector Handheld Electrolyte Hydrometer" did not realise.. but to me they all look the same -...

How do pressure transfer with the fermenter? What happens with the bubbler? Or do you have a CO2 plug on or something that goes in an adds pressure to transfer? Never seen anything mentioning this before.

So if it is blocked do you think its in that poppet / nut.. Its obviously building up. When I put it on a keg it is ok for a bit until equalised and then pressure builds up again.

Thanks.. I opened up unit, cleaned everything - looks ok.. really does not look like anything wrong or worn. Put back and is still the same, repair kits is 14 + 13 postage, $27.. might aswell get new.. To me there is something blocked (same thing when not connect to keg and turn on an...

Do you think yeast helps, a mate uses Nottingham yeast and seems to be good in any brew but also uses Coopers BE3 - so could that too?
