I need to add a few fermentors to my arsenal. I had been using those big blue plastic water jugs but retired them. I have been using 6 gallon buckets and...
A guy in St. Pete uses 5 kegs, unscrews and removes the pressure relief valve, jams clear tubing into the opening with the other end in a container with water....
My previous understanding was similar to yours – that you needed to modify the keg in order to use it as a fermenter. This new way of doing it - putting less...
I toyed with the idea of fermenting 5 gallons of beer in a 5 gallon corny with a burton union<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brewing_methods#Burton_Union>, but...
If I were to go to plastic buckets, I’d pick up some cheap plastic spigots. Dropping a cheap sanitary filter over the airlock hole would avoid dirty air....

Thanks for the input. I am not talking about corny kegs here but as Danny mentioned commercial 7.75 gallon quarter barrel sankey kegs. They are just a shorter...

Hi Homebrewers, I live in Port Charlotte and have been looking for local homebrewers to discuss brewing. I bottled for about 10 years, extracts only, then...
California Ale V 051 (white labs). I have it in a corny keg with a blow off tube in a bucket. The keg is in a wine refrigerator and it's about 68 inside....
What was the date on the yeast and did you do a starter? If it's a little old it may be slow starting. I live in Englewood and have US-05 dry yeast that will...
I didn't check the date on the yeast bottle. I also didn't do a starter. Will using 2 different kinds of yeast change the flavor of the beer? I don't have...
With white labs you won't know if the yeast is viable unless you do a starter. Also make sure your airlock has a tight fit. If you smell co2 it may be...
Hi Scott, It’s difficult to get yeast here in the summer if you’re getting it by mail order. The heat will kill it given half a chance – even if it’s...
As of last night the fermentation has started, so hopefully the 2 day delay in starting didn't hurt the quality of the beer. This was the 1st liquid yeast...
Glad to hear it's off and running. Don't give up on liquid yeast, though, you just have to make sure that it's going to be viable. Byron Sent on the Sprint...
I return to work tomorrow and hope that the krausen isn't to bad before I return. I think I told you that it's in a corny keg in a refrigerator in a wine...
I brewed this morning and don't have plans as of yet for the next brew. I'd be happy for you to come when I do brew next. If you have questions feel free to...
