I have set it to 4c now, will see how i go. If that doesnt work smaller gauge line and ill run it through that spreadsheet for length. If that doesnt work a fan a pipe kit for the font.

Ok my line is 5/16ths when i need 3/16ths. This is the difference between 3-4m requirement of line and 14m as per the spreadseet.

When i check the kegking website and other resources 5/16ths is recommended for long runs in pubs/commercial installs.

What is crazy is the line that came with the keg ...

That spreadsheet sounds like the bomb ill find it.

First keg serving pressure for 7 days, undercarbed still froth.
2nd keg ross method worked great found it was more accurate than 48hrs @ 230 - 250 kpa i did that last time.

Anyway, i stuffed the font with my frozen flannel, wrapped the tap with ...

Ok so i got a keggerator for my 30th finally come in from my brewshop.

Im getting glasses of foam, drink the foam top up, do this 3 times and i eventually get a schooner of beer.

It is set to 2*c, testing showed 3l milk carton full of water @2*c so the temp is ok.
The keggerator is outside but ...

Well i just overcarbed my 6ltr so dont do what i did and follow instructions assumed for 19 ltrs hahahhaha. I adjusted it now over last 24 hrs and ita been pretty good.

Well i sprayed sanitiser in the hole and blasted it back out the gas line, if anything i might replace the gas line. No probs with pressure gauge.

Hey guys i made the dumb mistake of getting beer in my regulator.

Now im reading forums saying i could get infections from it.

What should i do cleaning wise....
The regulator has a hole in which the beer came out of so i dont think its stuck in there.

I turned up the pressure and blasted it back ...

Very big dry hop addition 1 day before bottling. (30 - 40g)

Thanks doc,

ive been meaning to brew that golden ale for some time, i have done the extract version before but not the AG.

i can remember it being great right from the start.

Whatever you choose to do, just know that I think your suggested Aussie Bitter is an awful idea! :P

Lol, i know but how many beer drinkers have you had in which you have given them one of the best Ales or lagers you have made only to hear...

"yeah but its not a real beer"

Real beer? you say ...

Hey guys

I have 5 weeks to make a beer and have it bottle conditioned for my 30th birthday party.

So far on my menu for my party is:

CPA
Dark Ale
Hefeweisbier

I Need 1 more that will be good to drink at a young age (dark beers are pretty much out i think)
By the time it primes in the bottles it ...

I know you can get mini staves which are half size and then full size.

Grain and grape only has french oak staves but not american oak.

This link suggests they are same, im pretty sure you only use like 1g for a standard size brew.

I wonder if u picked valencia oranges early when still green if you would get close to the real thing.

I might try this as i dont ...

Paradise seed is the one element constantly missed with clone recipes and curico orange peel.

So if anyone finds where to get both im all ears or eyes i guess since its a forum

hey doc, i might brew this for my 30th birthday next year.

where did you get your Oak Staves from in adelaide?

I found 1 of my beers did this "gushing" due to infection but it tasted acidic as a result which confirmed it.

Another one of my beers just had a HUGE head that filled the glass, once selted out it tasted great, so overcarb issue.

Overcarb was due to unfinished fermentation, as the FG was 1017 but ...

Hahaha awesome, and yes i took a backup, boags clone, not bad but could be better. It was better than millenium ale haha
