<_< <_< Hi Fellow Brewers After a number of successful brews with my 19l keg I have upgraded to a 50l keg recently but not without a rather worrying problem. After chilling the keg in my newly adapted fridge, I connected the gas through the beer line hoping to get a faster carbonation. I...

Hi All Have recently kegged my CPA brew using CPA cultured yeast. However when I gassed it (40 psi) after 2 days chilling in fridge, I backed it off to 10 psi for pouring as per my previous brew. It is very gassy with lots of bubbles in the beer line. I backed the pressure off to 5psi but still...

:P :) Hi Brewers Well Ive just finished my first brew of CPA using Coopers Cultured Yeast and Enerjex's instructions and WOW did it go off. Compared to my previous batch using the kit yeast, this Cultured Yeast took off within 3 hours of pitching. Admittedly the pitching temp was a bit high...

Ive read with interest about yeast culturing. What is it and how do you go about it? Cheers :huh:

:( :angry: Hi All, I have recently racked a batch of Coopers Pale Ale only a week or so ago and put it into the fridge gassed it to carbonate it for two days befor tasting it. It tasted a bit watery (lacks flavour compared to the real deal). Is this because I have to let it mature for longer...

Hi there, I am trying to remove the spear from my 50l keg which has the Tooheys 'A' type fitting. I have made up a tool to unscrew it but it wont come out competely. It seems as though there is something stopping it from coming out. Ive seen pics from other members that have removed them. What...

Hi all keg brewers, I am new to keg brewing and have just started tasting my first effort with a fair bit of pride in how it turned out. I am using the standard 19L cornelius keg but have a 50l keg which I plan to upgrade to once I am happy with my techniques. However I am wondering how I go...
