    Kegerator in kitchen fridge and still use fridge?

    First brew - messed up most stages, tips on low pressure in the PB

    First brew - messed up most stages, tips on low pressure in the PB

    First brew - messed up most stages, tips on low pressure in the PB

    I did take the sg at the start and end and everything was looking good, can’t remember what the readings we’re but it tallied with the instructions and a couple of YouTube vids :) I’d rather leave the findings out as want it to be vegan friendly 🌱
