    KK - 'Fermentasaurus' conical PET fermenter

    The sodastream bottles us a double helix thread which we have not found anywhere else other than in our yeast collection bottles and sodastream bottles. I am sorry we have no plans to make an adaptor to Tri-clamp at this stage. our yeast collection bottle is just under 14cm high.

    4. Do not draw product from the floating dip tube until the hops have sunk out of suspension. If you use a high amount of hops they can block up the dip tube. You can clear out a dip tube with back pressure if you really stuff it up but really i recommend waiting for hops to settle before...

    KK - 'Fermentasaurus' conical PET fermenter

    Just to clarify this point. If you are half decent at drilling holes and drill in the thick part of the cone as we have recommended in the video there is a good chance that it will easily hold pressure. The issues is its simply impossible for us to guarantee that it will hold pressure as we...

    KK - 'Fermentasaurus' conical PET fermenter

    There is no issue using up to 5g/L but if you wanted to do this we can give you the following advice: 1. If you use the yeast collection bottle to add hops do not add more than 30grams for one yeast collection bottle. 2. If you dump all the hops into the top of the Fermentasaurus at once then...

    KK - 'Fermentasaurus' conical PET fermenter

    1. The Fermentasaurus has been designed for all grain brewing. 2. If you are using the yeast collection for hop additions we would recommend that you only use 30grams at a time. Then remove the yeast collection bottle then re-attach again a couple days later. If you really want to use bottles...

    KK - 'Fermentasaurus' conical PET fermenter

    We find this a strange conclusion. During the development of this product all brews that we did were with all grain beers. At Keg King all the staff involved in the development of this product are all grain brewers. At Keg King Springvale if you walk into our home brew store in Springvale we...

    KK - 'Fermentasaurus' conical PET fermenter

    There are ways to reduce the oxygen exposure during bottle change overs. Some solutions include: 1. purge the bottle with CO2 prior to attaching to the fermenter. 2. Fill with boiled water before connection but this will dilute your beer down slightly so your recipe should be adjusted to...

    KK - 'Fermentasaurus' conical PET fermenter

    We would not recommend adding 100grams of hops at one time in the collection bottle. They swell up too much and can clog the valve. If you want to add 100 grams then simply use the collection bottle to add 30grams, then change over the bottle then repeat this step. Definitely 100grams in the...

    Ice Bank Chiller home setup

    Hello there, These temprite systems are best operated with nitrogen/co2 mixed gas. The problem is that if you use CO2 as the temperature of your kegs changes you can start to get flat beer or over carbonated beer. If you have a high turnover bar and you are hammering through the kegs every...

We have been using these fermenters our self for a while now and we have been doing a lot...

    Ferment, condition and pressurise in one vessel

    Hello Sp0rk - Mayor of Pooptown, I rarely hop on this forum but i see we were mentioned in this posts and there seems to be some misinformation here. There is not a single thing that we purchase from Alibaba. You are right in saying that a large portion of our gear comes from China if that...

    Keg Mate

    I know quite a bit about this topic so I though I may as well hop on here to give my 2 cents. The main kegerator that you guys seem to be talking about is what we call our Keg Master Series 3 (aka Keg Mate or Fridge that Ross sells) Up to April 2010 the actual fridge part of the kegerators...

    Kk Co2 Bottles - Any Good?

    Hello Guys, It's Kee here from Keg King. I dont usually go onto these forums unless I am looking for some mashing tips but when you see a thread that is about your own business I guess you feel compelled to say something. Hydrostatic Test Stamp All our cylinder are hydrostatically tested...

    Keg Mate

    Hello, It's Kee here from Keg King. I can confirm for you that they are exactly the same. Keg Mate and us use exactly the same model fridge but he uses his own parts. I believe his parts are from India not China. As of June 2009 all of the ones we sell now use our new taps which are FAR...
