Ive been kegging for about 5 months and the following works for me. I brew my beer for a week in the fermenter, then move the fermenter into my kegerator at about 1-2 degrees for 3 days to clear the beer. Then I transfer the beer to the keg, pump 40psi of CO2 into in for 36-48 hours. After...

you would have to think that a member for 8 years with that many posts would not be dodgy

Mine does same thing when i set it to 40psi to force carb my kegs, drops to about 35psi the next day. Doesnt really bother me and i havent really looked into it I just turn the gas up a bit to get it back to 40psi

Bar and keezer setup finally done in time for summer. Freezer was $70 and holds 4 kegs! Absolutely loving it!

So the dream came to life, bar came up awesome just the way i wanted it. Brew now on tap, just in time for summer. Living the aussie dream hahaha

l hold back during the week and then generally unleash on the weekend. Probably get through about 20 stubbies most weekends. Now that ive got it on tap, its getting harder not to drink it during the week

Hey Colo how did the lager end up? I tried mine after 2 weeks in the bottle and it was naaaasty. After the third week it was much nicer and actually drinkable, hoping this week it will be even better. So for my first brew looks like ive done ok. I also tried the wheat beer that we were talking...

Thanks for the offer mate. I am about to buy a freezer as well and i think it will just fit 3 ball locks since they are not as fat as the pins. So i think ill be getting ball locks as well. Thinking ill get some off ebay, 2 delivered for $120 sounds pretty good. I have been and visited Marks...

Anyone got any gear forsale around newcastle? Im about to start my setup so im after kegs, gas bottle, chesty, disconnects etc.. Someone selling their whole setup would be ideal! Thanks!

Hey Colo, you are right.. leaving in the fermenter for that long is going to be hard, but ill give it a go. I have not tried the wheat beers that you mentioned, but i have tried a home brewed wheat beer sometime ago, and although it lacked a little in the taste department, it was still a nice...

Im very new to brewing also and might give this recipe a go. My first brew was also the Coopers Heritage Lager which has been in the fermenter for about a week, I was going to bottle it this weekend but might leave it another week after reading this post. This wheat beer recipe sounds rather...

thanks for the replies. yeah im not to concerned about the first 1/2 a beer or so being warm, having beer on tap at home will be to good to worry about that. I havent got a lot of money to spend on the setup at the moment, so ill probably start with the bar, and then get the kegging gear and...

So i am reading that once your beer is bottled the longer that you leave it the better it seems to taste. So if you keg your brew and force carbonate it and therefor start drinking it a few days after fermentation does it not taste as nice as bottled beer that may have been sitting around for a...

Hi all, thanks for an awesome forum. I have learnt alot in the short time I have been here. I have got my first brew ever fermenting away and im pretty excited to get it all bottled up and try it in a few weeks. After reading a bit about kegging I have been thinking that instead of getting...
