Transporting Pressurized CornyKegs Regarding Q#1: Are you asking whether you need to keep the CO2 tank hooked up during the car ride (answer: no), or if you need to bring the tank with you and hook it up when you get there (answer: yes, as you dispense beer you need to keep the tank hooked up to keep the beer at the right pressure). |

How quickly can you pull beer through a jockey box with a 70' coil? @mdma: The original poster proposed a 70 inch coil, not 70 feet. Unless that was a typo on Robert's part. |

Spotless Carboys Actually, the trademarked name of the product is just PBW. The phrase "Powdered Brewery Wash" doesn't appear anywhere on the product or on its tech sheet. Perhaps that was the origin of the name, but it's not currently used by Five Star. |

What solution of hard alcohol is sufficient to sanitize and infuse something for addition to a fermenting beer? OK, maybe heating the infusion isn't a good idea. But I still think that 1.6 oz of vodka is more than enough. |

Advice for converting to outdoor propane brewing Designing and creating your own equipment can either be part of the hobby or just a hassle, depending on your amount of free time, area of expertise, available tools, and definition of "fun". Designing homebrew setups is not the same thing as homebrewing. While many people may enjoy both hobbies, I think there's definitely a group of people who would rather just be brewing, not fiddling with hardware. |

Carbonated in carboy from primary fermentation? 1.002 would still be suspiciously low, so check it out for future use. Most hydrometers are calibrated around 60 ˚F, so a measurement near there (e.g. fermentation temperature) shouldn't have too much error. If you try to measure the gravity of a hot liquid (e.g. the pre-boil gravity when doing an all grain batch), the difference is much larger. |

Carbonated in carboy from primary fermentation? Not sure it's relevant to your CO2 question, but a F.G. of 1.000 is pretty much impossible for beer. You'd have to use 100% table sugar or a wine yeast or something to get down to 1.000. Are you sure your hydrometer is accurate? Did you forget to compensate for temperature? Take a reading of distilled water to sort it out. |
