Thanks for the ideas. The gun looks ok. I am now sure that its over gasses although its a bit better now than at first. After reading that info the balanced system looks a good way to go. So the next keg ill try the week at 100kpa. I may need some more beer line though. Cheers Alex

Thanks for the comments, At this stage I am in no rush to drink it as the beer could do with a bit of matureing. So will just keep burping and checking. Then wait another week or so.

Well I think so. I have a pluto gun and according to the instructions that came with the kit I pour with the gun fully opened. I have noticed that you can adjust the the amount that it opens with the nut on the back of the gun but i assumed that it would be set up correct from new, so havent...

Another question for the seasoned keggers. I have been shaking the keg and releasing pressure every now and then, is that the best method to lower the gas level or should be trying something else?

OK a few more questions on kegging. I just got my keg system set up and carbonated my first keg using Ross's method. I am pouring about half foam/half liquid. Im guessing I have overdone the co2 level a bit. I have also noticed gas getting into the beer line is this a dead give away that it is...

Mainly AHB and Grumpys. I do more lurking than posting. Have learnt alot from both though.

Ive only used it once but it got away in about 12 hours. I rehydrated the yeast and pitched it around 20 degrees, then i slowly lowered the temp once I saw that it had started fermenting (small bubbles on the surface). Fermented without any dramas. Alex

Looks fantastic Ken certainly it will be the benchmark of a home bar setup! My bar starts next week when I get my keg system. I have got some more ideas and a bit of inspiration from all the bars pictured. Will be looking for a font and taps soon methinks. LX

I would leave to see if it is still brewing, check the sg after a few days and see if it is still coming down. LX

Gday Brewers, after brewing a half dozen or so Ales I have decided to try my hand at a true Lager. Being a newbie I thought Id run pass my ideas to see if you guys can point me in the right direction if my plans are a bit off. I have now got my brew fridge under temperature...

That goat must be the best fed goat in the Adelaide Hills. I dropped in on the way home from work to pick up a brew one Friday. There was a few people already there so had to park out the back. There was the goat with a trailer load of what looked like used malt grains filling his face...

Hi there name is Alex Ive been a bit of a lurker but decided to brake the ice and introduce myself. I started h/b about 2 years ago after my father started and got me interested. I didnt really like that "homeberew" taste and thought by using "brewers sugar" would give me that "real" beer...
