    Liquid Yeast supplies

    At risk of derailing this further into a thread about Bluestone, I think you can expect their offerings to expand. When I reached out to them and asked why none of their Belgian strains were available anywhere, they were nice enough to reply: Sounds to me like they're interested in bringing...

    Canberra 2-MIB and Geosmin event

    Sorry you didn't get answer Cup, I'm in the same boat of being insensitive to it but I've read that acid helps, so maybe normal mash pH is enough to drive it off? Do you know if its still a problem? I haven't read anywhere that it's better, but the complaints seem to have abated over the last...

    Another CO2 leak

    Makes sense. In my head most of the mols were on the high pressure side so the low pressure side should drop faster once high pressure was depleted. But yeah, when I think about it it's like 40x more pressure on the upstream side but probably 1000s of times more volume in an empty keg then in...

    Another CO2 leak

    I see your point and I did have some trouble getting the FFT-duotight adapters on my manifold and reg to stop leaking (lots of talk about people over tightening these, but mine were actually the opposite). As I expand or replace stuff I will move away from them on the gas side, and maybe keep...

    Another CO2 leak

    Thank you all for your suggestions. Touch wood it seems to be holding pressure now. I replaced the post o rings, it still leaked, I pulled the QD off, put some soap on it and the post, turned the keg upside down so the soapy water would settle in the little grooves and reconnected - no leak...

    Another CO2 leak

    Thanks, yeah I've tried all 5 gas QDs that I have on hand on each keg, with three sealing on both kegs and two leaking on both kegs. The leaking QDs seal when they're not attached to a keg though, so that's why I was wondering about the O rings being marginal and manufacturing tolerances in the...

    Another CO2 leak

    I've run into some strange gas leaks on my new kegging system. I resorted to starting from just the reg and reconnecting one thing at a time, static pressure testing as I go by pressurising the system then closing the gas bottle's tap. Looks like I have 2 "bad" QDs, one good QD and 2 "good"...

    Anyone done 2x50L kegerator/keezer?

    I’m sad to report that I gave up. The kegerator is to go int our office, the crazy boss bought a massive bench fridge which isn’t that tall, and now I have to try to find breweries that deal in 30L kegs

    Anyone done 2x50L kegerator/keezer?

    Title says it all - has anyone built a kegerator or keezer that will fit 2x 50L kegs? I’m having trouble. I think a really tall upright fridge/freezer with stacked kegs will nearly work, but even the tallest ones seem about 200mm too short. Chest freezers seem to be a possibility, but most...
