Re: First Keezer Build (Pics)

Fixed my leak for now, took the whole manifold system down and dunked it in a bucket
Come to find out, all my connections were good, it was just a stuck open ball lock gas QD

Re: French's Mustard Beer

I forgot about the Aug 1 date, and it sold out. If anyone picked up a 6 pack, I'd love to buy a can off of you. This is unique enough I'd like to try some, specially if I ever want to re-brew the homebrew variant, I'd like to know how the original was to benchmark.

French's Mustard Beer

I'm intrigued at how appropriately sized the addition is to only lend small bit of flavor, rather than overwhelm. Given the vinegar in mustard, I'd have never considered. Developed in partnership with Oskar Blues Brewery, the beer is a “semi-tart tropical wheat beer infused with citrus fruits to com...

Re: First Keezer Build (Pics)

Having leaks (fairly substantial) on my CO2 manifolds/system, looking at tearing it apart and rebuilding/leak testing. What type of fittings/hardware does everyone use? https://i.imgur.com/ochqlKD.png I'm looking at switching to DuoTight rather than barbs and clamps https://www.morebeer.com/category...

Re: What does genetics have to do with IPAs?

Has anyone ever tested out the PTC paper ? Has anyone tried any of the home DNA tests that offer analysis of TAS2R38 gene? I did 23andMe years ago, and they report that I have the GC variant, but I've not had issues with IPAs in general, though I did not start my craft beer journey with them. Readin...

Fluorescent yeast? Glowing beer?

Has anyone heard of or used one of these fluorescent yeast kits? Since it's the yeast themselves, and not any of their by product, a poor flocculating yeast like one of the strains for Hazys might be a good candidate https://www.the-odin.com/ge-yeast/ Somehow I either missed the 2016 articles or for...
