Great minds think alike lol....Sometimes if the hose is just a bit off you can stick it in some hot water to make it fit...I know the hose I used needed this action.

Speaking of clone, I need to find me a Caffrey's Irish Ale. It's kind of a sentimental thing. My dad went to the UK several years ago and Caffrey's was the beer he loved. Coors wouldn't allow for distribution in the U.S. I found a liquor store in Windsor, Ontario that we made a road trip to buy it. Coming back through customs, we got questioned about our trip and told him about the keg and expected to get hit with a $100 duty. Guy must have thought were crazy to drive 6+ hours to pick up a keg of beer and let us through with no tax. Sad thing is his health deteriorated so quickly after that he didn't get to drink it. The cancer had eaten holes through his gut and his chemo doctor told him not to drink it. |

Re: Homebrewers - Whats in the fermeter?
I was going to try my stout a few minutes ago. Realized after I poured a large glass of foam in microseconds that I left the pressure up too high for an extra day.
Oops. Rocked the keg a bit to knock some CO2 out of solution, pulled the relief valve, and got a small malty facial. I really am not very bright. I will have to let it settle down and knock out a volume or so in small increments. |

Pulling my aged bottles out this weekend, Bruiser Berry Hef and a Candied Pecan and Mandarin Orange Amber. I like to play around with different flavors and combinations. The taste test of the hef was AMAZING! but I have yet to crack a bottle of the amber but I have high hopes.

Re: Homebrewers - Whats in the fermeter?
Good. I never trust that an airlock will work for the first few days, at least. I am paranoid, though. Well, that and I am pretty new at this stuff.

Crash cooling my 2012 Hopslam clone, and cooked up my first brew in anticipation of the summer today: a cream ale.

Re: Homebrewers - Whats in the fermeter?
Sometime this week I'll be racking my stout into secondary on top of some vanilla beans that have been soaking in a little bourbon for a couple weeks. Smells awesome, can't wait to see how this one turns out.
