Just posting to maybe give some inspiration to someone. My space is limited and so a chest freezer based keezer is not an option. Neither is a tall fridge, only under counter is possible. But I still wanted 5 taps. In most cases I see people getting two kegs in, maybe 3 at a squeeze, but...

Hi all, In car worlds people talk of having the "perfect 4 car garage" yadda yadda. So the beer equivalent: I have a 4 tap kegerator (not true, it is a 5 tap kegerator but one tap is on sparkling water duty). Currently I have - Tap 1 - pale ale, moderately hopped Tap 2 - pilsner Tap 3 -...

European regs made it possible to import goods valuing less than €22 without paying VAT. From the first of Jan this is no longer the case with VAT being due from the supplier. Most of my brewing supplies from Aliexpress were under this level and so exempt from the VAT but no longer. Here is...

g'day all, I have a kegerator in my garage that is under a worktop. So it is an under counter fridge. The internal size is actually quite large and I can get 3 19L corny kegs in there ok. What I want though is 5 taps. Mostly because one tap needs to be dedicated to dispensing carbonic acid (aka...

Hi all, 2 Fridges going spare. Rearrangement of garage means no space for these. 1. a tall silver fridge freezer. Upper part is the fridge that fits two 19l corny kegs easily. I am sure a third could fit too with some door/insulation modification. I've used it for kegs upstairs and then kept...

Hi all, My lovely wife bought me a refractometer on her own intuition. Probably after too many instances of guests asking "how strong is this beer" when they start to feel a bit squiffy and my reply being "No idea mate. I don't measure. Tastes good tho dunnit. Hic." The problem is the scale on...

I use a biab ace boiler set up and yesterday I rigged up a little solar pump with a PWM modulator (the kind used by people making stir plates) and a PID box I made years ago for sous vide cooking. It's very heath robinson, but it worked for me. The good things... 1. Temperature control was...

Hello, I have been given a free fridge but it has a dreaded ice compartment meaning my fermenters don't fit. My choice is to sell this and buy another fridge (which sounds like too much hassle) , or get some smaller fermenters. I usually brew between 15 and 18 litre batches so smaller...

Hello all. Long time lurker and relatively new brewer here. My second AG brew was a Belgian Blond based on the recipe in Greg Hughes' book. It has come out tasting heavily of banana. Not a hint of fruityness. This is a hit of banana like supping on neat banana essence. A bit of reading...
