If you have a Perlick Tap, unscrew the nozel. Then you need to get some plastic (I use some ice vream container plastic) and cut a disc that has an interfearance fit (slightly bigger than the end of the thread of the nozel) so that it will seal between the faucet and the nozel. Once you cut it to fit (took me a few hours) puncture it with half a dozen holes with a drawing pin.
Then fit it, and make a seal. Make sure have have less than 1 vol of CO2 in the beer, and serve at 1 - 2 bar. It squirts out pretty hard - so beware. Also, dont chill the beer below 14 degrees, otherwise it;ll suck up the CO2 and you'll never serve it through that nozel.
Hi Glen, thanks for posting those recipes from the awards, most of them are ones I was eying up last night in BCS for future brews, I was amazed! Well done on the gold. I have a bit of a newbie question (hence not posting on that thread) - the amber ale, you use 2 pkgs of yeast, but for the brown ale only one, but grain totals are about the same - why the difference in yeast quantities? (I am keen on doing an amber as I really like the TH RNA, will be a nice follow up to Yakima Monster - once I figure out the Bohemian Pilsner for my wife, and then there is the stout and a TT Landlord... oh the list goes on, I see why you have done so many AG brews in a year!!)
I've been meaning to dredge through the forum posts and make a list of the T,T,F,F LA's that are used, but haven't quite got to it yet. Will have a look at it next week or two if that is any help.
Hi Glen, you recently posted "Immersion chillers clog, and when they do it's not fun." Were you referring to blockages during recirculation with a whirlpool, or did you mean plate chillers? Just debating the merits with Joking of having a second (higher) outlet on a kettle he is making for me to avoid blockages problems with recircualting wort - he reckons its not a problem. Any thoughts?
just wondering if you have done anything with your kegs?? I'm looking to upsize my kettle to do double batches - figured a keg would be perfect. I'd offer you something decent for one with fittings?
Im new to the HB scene , done a few cans and a Kilo kits but keen to get into the BIAB scene as soon as the kit stuff has been consumed , loving the craft beer and the help / info on this site.

What was the name of the lab place you mentioned on Saturday? I want to buy a set of very precise scales for weighing salts?
Cheers
