in that case go with several feet of 5mm id evabarrier to a standard chrome tap.

i have pretty good results with this. the only problem is the orange and black flow cotnrol dc can get stiff and doesnt really work great as a flow control. it sometiems sticks especially at the extreme open or closed position. keeping it clean helps. the best is too find a setting and...

in the US beer kits are very hard to come by really just mr beer and diy beer (mr beer parent company) recently a canadian company has made muntons available again in the US. after a very long spell. the difference here is that cans have all the hops in them so you arent going to get much...

so i have been following these kits and they are a little different than the kits in a can. the main difference is two 1 proprietary DME. the advantage to this over can kits is that the shelf life of dme is longer than lme so theoretically you should be able to get fresh kits easier. this is...

i got a bucket blaster and find it sits in he corner of the brewery most of the time. long brushless soaks with cleaners work just as well with less effort.

its not the rice its the recirc. i stopped using rice hulls and it hasnt seemed to make a difference. i would still prolly add rice if using an extra gummy grist like say oats or something. you are circulating too fast and draining the bottom before the wort drains through the bed. this...

from kegland website: Materials: Food grade PET you cant brush plastic especially not with bristles. and especially not a fermenter. you will cause micro abrasions and or outright scratches which will a) hold the perfect place for bugs that you wont be able to get to. and b) cause fogging...

two firkins equals one kilderkin - frisps kilderkin brewery also has a nice ring

oxebars are the best. i have two. i been running them for a few months now. i have a seperate 4.2 fridge with inkbird that i use to ferment in. then i just transfer the keg to my kegerator for conditioning/serving. i use them as ferment and serves. once its kicked, i do an oxy soak...

i make a cherry apple cider using these tea bags for additional tannin and flavor/ aroma the aroma is really strong with this. it works great in cider. i have a feeling this would make a great fruit tea bag wine. especially back sweetened with some additional fruit juice,

you wont be disaapointed. i ferment in an oxebar 20 liter keg and and serve out of it. then i have a spare one in a temp controlled ferm chamber to ferment while i drink the firstone. when the server gets low i transfer it to a minikeg to free up the first oxebar for another round of...

you likely have a nice hardy acetobacter culture. my 2 reccomendations are to 1) throw out the fermenter and get a new one and clean and sanitize after every batch. 2) dont transfer to secondary leave on primary longer and then bottle. i see those as the two areas where infection can be...

wtf ?

yes lots of juice has ascorbic acid (vit c) . yeast like it so dont worry about it. i use motts which has vit c. it doesnt affect the cider or the yeast. yes there should be plenty of yeast left in the cider to carb it up in the bottle. the one caveat is if its been sitting a real long...

yes add nutrient . wine and beer yeast dont like cider must. i have had better results with nutrient then without. thats a nice kit btw. it says it has nutrient and cider yeast so i would keep that.

yes put it away until it clears. 1) adding a liter of juice to your dry cider can work wonders to cut the the edge and to bring out the apple flavor. 2) do you mean a preservative? if you are kegging the cider then it doesnt matter. if your are bottle conditioning, it may take the yeast...

apple jack is a little different than calvados. calvados is distilled cider. applejack is made by freeze distillation which will result in a slightly different beverage. more apply and less spirity. but also hotter and not as smooth as calvados. calvados is always aged , At home its...

most say malic acid as that is the acid in apples naturally and if you smell a bottle of malic it smells like apple pie. but i have used lemon juice and lime juice with good results. better with lime then lemon but thats probably in my head. lol black tea tannin works well for me in juice...
