Years ago when I started brewing we were in Sydney and I boiled water and allowed it to cool before filling my fermenters to make sure the water was sterilised. I did this by adding the boiling water to a cube and closed it up - like no-chill. Now we live on the farm I still do the same as the...

To keep the peace with SWMBO, and to release the purse stings for an outside bar, I needed to get the pressure up on her Soda Water Keg. So the answer was to get dual gas regs. Problem was I had two single Keg King regs. I spoke with Keg King and found out that their regulator thread was Right...

I have the STC-1000 wired up and tested. So now time to drill the fridge and put in the sensor, and the heater wire. I note the STC-1000 Manual says (in Perfect Chinese English) "The sensor down-lead and power wire should be kept a proper distance" I was going to put a 19mm (3/4) gland through...

Sorry about all the Noob questions. I finally stumbled upon the right filter element for my filter at my local pump shop - US made pleated 1 micron absolute, and the flow rate through the filter is now better than 1 litre a minute with water :) So I have a brew coming off the fermenter...

I have been kegging now for a month and finally think the setup is working well. Beer is pouring great, the new Perlick taps are stunners, and I finally have the gas pressure set at what I think is just right. ONLY NOW the wife is complaining the soda water is flat! My gas pressure is at 90kpa...

I have a Keg King kegerator with a triple font with the standard Keg King taps (two for beer and one has been hijacked by SWMBO for Soda Water). I need some help with the taps. When I get a good pour it is a great beer, but about 50% of the time when I pour instead of the beer coming out as a...

Just got back from the Big Green Shed. They had 100 litre "Wheelie Bins" labeled as "Water Tanks" which look like the perfect size for a portable party keg setup. They would fit a full Corny keg with several bags of ice. They are blue, have wheels, and a valve at the base for draining. Thinking...

My new fridge arrives in a couple of days making SWMBO very happy. SO I then inherit the Westinghouse 400 litre all fridge. I have the controller all ready to go but I don't think the shelves are going to take 25kgs! I saw a fridge on here (but cant find the pic now) of a brewing fridge with a...

I have a Flo-Jet LF122202 pump which has an inbuilt pressure switch set to 40psi, and a flow rate of 3.8 lpm. I was wondering whether I could use this to hook up to a fermenter and pump through the filter. Will a diaphram pump cause too much foaming? Just I have the pump on hand rather than...

Although I am a newbie to the forum, I have been kit brewing for close to 20 years. I have just upgraded to kegs, and thought I would try filtering. I have a filter I picked up on EBay (one of these). I aim to try it to filter from fermenter to keg. The filter element is one micron. I have...
