How do I get CO2 flowing into keg? Editing some info from the comments into the answer. |

How do I get CO2 flowing into keg? It wasn't that much speculation; he was detailed enough that I could tell that the regulator wasn't opened. He said that there was pressure from the tank, but no pressure on the line. Unless the regulator's broken, which a picture won't necessiarally show us, turning the valve's going to be the answer. I just couldn't say whether the valve on his regulator was a screw, knob, or t-shaped thing, as they vary between systems. I suppose I failed to communicate that it would be in the middle of the regulator in the first post, but it apparently got the right message across. |

How do I get CO2 flowing into keg? I will add that if you feel uncomfortable with this, then don't do it. You are working with things under pressure; much safer to talk to the manufacturer than to do something that feels wrong. |

How do I get CO2 flowing into keg? Ok, so you definitely have co2 in the tank (unless that gauge is broken somehow), and that screw in the middle is what you're looking for. Have you tried tightening it with a wrench/screwdriver? My roommate has a regulator like this, but it has a bar on the end to help you turn it by hand. It never felt particularly hard to turn, but the bar may have made it deceptively easy. |

What's wrong with using finings? @C4H5As Ah. Pardon my American "assume no other countries exist but me" viewpoint. :P |

BIAB efficiency My impression of a BIAB was to just add some flavor from the grain, then get all your fermentables from extract. I'm curious how far someone's pushed this. |

Cure for Oxygenation? This is my standard response for any brewing error (for when it's not too much extra work): Go ahead and bottle a few. Worst case scenario, you have a few bottles of beer that exhibit a particular brewing flaw so you can learn the off-flavors. Of course, I usually also try to have something more helpful after that. :P |

Naming Homebrews Hey Matthew, welcome to Homebrew.SE! Although interesting, this style of question doesn't work too well with the stack exchange sites. The site's format fits best with questions that have definite answers. Although, sometimes these can hang around as community wikis, although that's up to a mod. |

What to Do with Six Pack Boxes Has whoever does your recycling stated that they don't accept 6-pack boxes? Where I live, it's just treated as straight cardboard and they'll take it. |

Where can I get custom crown caps in the UK? I already gave my +1, but I just got an order I placed with Bottlemark. I can say the caps are excellent. The only things to keep in mind is that their caps are a white base, so the sides will be white. That, and order a few extra. I had a misprint or two in a bad of 70. Just slight things, but if you want them perfect, it won't hurt, since they're just $.12 each. |

What will happen to this un-sanitized batch of Wheat beer? Even if you don't like the taste of it, if it's not straight up vinegar, it might be a good exercise to bottle a few off the batch before dumping to let them age and see what happens. Might make for a good example of what some age can do to a beer. |
