Well just when I thought I was getting the hang of this kegging stuff, having naturally carbonated the beer (ie, the Grmblz) method for 10 days at about 23 c, I put the keg into the fridge and hooked up the co2, set at 30psi as the beer was flat so decided to do the force carbonated for 24...

Hi ZOIGL. what do you mean about 6 c

My young personal Brewing Consultant...How are you. I put the post up because it is good to get many peoples experiences. I spoke to Darren from Keg Land and did not like the carbonation using sugar and told me I need to "get into the new techniques". He was a lovely and helpful fellow...

Well to say I have not got a great response is to believe that pigs actually do fly... ie ...great response. Razz, my stuff ups were simply not sterilizing properly on TWO occasions so in a fit of despair...I dumped 92 litres of beer...I have never said I was smart. My taste in beer is ever...

Hello Fellow Drinkers I have a few questions and a conundrum if I may throw it out here into the WWW (Wide World of Wisdom). I have just started kegging having purchased a 2nd hand keggerator. I have not as yet had a successful brew to sample properly as I have stuffed up just about every...

Great thanks mate. There is soooo much to learn but I love it and drink like a fish so much cheaper

Hi all. I have now got a "keggerator" and put down 3 x 19 liter kegs but am having some issues with the gassing of it. The local home brew shop are great but the "grand dad" who has years of experience and a lovely bloke really is not of much use in terms of the technical aspects of kegging...

Well the issue of "carbonation is in the past. I just purchased a 2nd kegerator and looking at buying a second one in the next few day as I was contacted by a fellow who has one for sale. My next biggest expense will be with the Liver specialist I think...(not really). What I will say, the...

Thanks Enibeer

Hey thanks for that reply mate. I am getting rather keen on the keg idea I must say

Hello Fellow Beer Lovers Just a bit of a "fishing" post. I am considering converting my home brew from bottles to kegs. I was wondering what everyone's opinion of this approach. I will put up some questions if I may. 1. If I am needing to leave the beer for say 3 months to "mature", I am...

Great Hangover68. How long do you think I should allow to carbonate and yes, it is a big hard being a Victorian. I set up a large old chest freezer and use a ceramic heat emitter which warms the air but does not provide light. I was going to set up a thermostat but I just use a timer to bring...

Thanks for the reply mate. I dont understand what that means. I use the yeast that comes with the cans and no information is supplied on them

Hi all I have been getting differing opinions on what temperature is required to carbonate beer in a bottle. I have been told that it only requires 16 degrees and also told it needs to be above 20 degrees. Any input would be appreciated Darren

Welcome Dave. I am also quite new although I have brewed over 80 cases of beer thus far (brewing 5 at a time. I have been tasting the beers at various duration's after bottling and a brew I tried after 2 weeks post carbonation (ie 1 month since bottling) was bloody horrible. I tried it again...

hello all>>> not a brewing question but would appreciate some help> how do i find the posts i have put up>>>i wanted to get back to one of my posts to share some info with a fellow brewer who commented> sorry for such a mundane question> TIA

Hi Brewing Gods. I brewed the basic kit beer 30 years ago I loved it and have just started again. Like I do... I am doing 6 x 23 litre barrels at a time cos I do love the "liquid Gold" very much. Just sampled my first batch now and it only is 10 days post bottling and I certainly will leave...

I have plenty of this. Is it good to clean everything including bottles. I would like to try and avoid having to scrub bottles if I can as I brew a fair amount at a time. Also, I simply fill my fermenter to the absolute top with water, leave to soak outside over night or for a few hours and...

An incorrect hunch but as I stated, I will keep it on topic for the better of the forum other to conclude, my position stands totally. Is it the general opinion that aquarium heaters when the weather is too cold are no good? I hope they are as they are such a simple way to maintain a...

Great. Well i certainly learned at lot from that. MTB, I needed to Google "cold crash" and that sounds like a great way to do it without adding anything. Ill be on the lookout for a small fridge to do this. Cheers and Merry Christmas to all.
