Just to add to your post. I went to Garland welding supply (1960 Forest Lane, Garland) to get a tank filled and found that the tank was due for inspection so I spent way more than I was expecting. I found myself in the same situation a few months later when a buddy gave me an old tank he had. I deci...

Thanks for the reply. I got some helpful suggestions from HBT as well. http://www.homebrewtalk.com/f35/serving-draft-outdoors-1st-time-494576/ I charged them all up (4 kegs) and equalized them a week ago+.

I thought it might be a good project to barrel age some beer. I have never done this and am just starting my research. I thin...

I have one and love it. I have the 2 burner/cooler (shelf) configuration. http://storminnorman.me/wp/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/my-rig2-250x300.jpg Reason I ask… I got a new keggle for Christmas and was going to build a mash tun out of it. Aside from cleaning for hours, not being able to consistentl...
