    Secondary or not?

    I used to use a secondary when I first started with kits, now I don't. I do think the end product clears quicker like this but its a faff in my opinion, plus I'm lazy. Two weeks or so in primary at 20 temp, dry hop for 4/5 days, cold crashed at 3 for a couple of days, then straight from tap...

    Cheapish Keg taps

    I have 2x of those on my fridge. The flow control lever makes a huge difference in the amount of foam/head dispensed. I get decent pints using the flow lever and have not used any reducers or excess tubing from the keg. I also - only last night, found that if you push the lever forward it...

    Soft (flexible) beer gas line

    Hi I've set my fridge/taps/lines with hard 3/8 o.d line. It's a pita to close the fridge door and connect the disconnects to the kegs etc... I think the closing and opening of the door has worked some of the connections loose to my distribution manifold and I have lost all my gas. From...

    Just a quick update to this now I have a clear head. I kegged both my brews on thursday evening, I was itching to sample some and force carbed both kegs that night. Both are surprisingly tasty, clear and pour a professional looking pint! I ended up doing 2 weeks in the primary, siphoned to...
