Thanks for the vid Brian! Here's a quick tip if you use Fermonsters like I do, take a solid #10 stopper and drill 2 small holes in it. The racking cane goes in one side, the carbonation cap in the other. Then everything else is just as Brian demonstrated. You can also purchase the solid Fermonster screw on cap and drill 2 holes for normal sized stoppers if you'd rather go that route.

I do this all the time. With water salts and closed transfers makes great clean beer. Also, used distilled water for star San and keep it for later.

I’m using the Speidel fermtors now because I hate racking with auto siphon and racking canes, I have used psi to move my beer like you did in the video I just find I use CO2 up so fast. Cool thing about Home brewing today is we have so many different options available to us now! Great video Brian have a happy new year Cheers 🍺

I want to know about that bucket low co2 transfer from 3:10!

This is a must with Hazy IPAs. When I’ve used this method, I’ve experienced two issues. 1. Dry hops and trub clogging the inlet to the keg. I’ve since started just running a hose directly into the keg and ditched the ball lock fittings. 2. The carboy cap leaking too much co2, which doesn’t allow enough pressure to build up to push the beer into the keg. I solved this with a series of hose clamps on each opening. I hope this helps anyone that experiences the same issues.

Short Circuited Brewers awesome! Thank you! This is used to carbonate soda bottles, it was very clever to repurpose it for this. I will order one or two!

I had the exact same idea, but didn't think about using the corny to sanitize the racking cane assembly. Although my plan is to put a valved quick coupling on the gas side of the carboy blowoff, and a valved disconnect on a pigtail to the racking cane (I'll probably do male on one and female on the other to avoid any possibility of connecting them incorrectly, although that is pretty unlikely). I will connect the carboy blowoff assembly (blowoff cap, racking cane, and disconnects) after pitching the yeast and connect a hose to the gas side quick disconnect to run into some sanitizer during fermentation. When I am ready to transfer All I have to do is switch out hose assemblies on the gas side for one that has a mating disconnect and has a gas ball lock on the other side, and connect another hose assembly with a mating disconnect and liquid ball lock on the other side (which is pretty much what you did in your video).

Sounds like a plan to me! Thanks for the comment and suggestions. 👍🍻

I just used this process. Worked well other than the carboy cap I bought through Amazon. Not a very good seal. I had to hold it on the whole time and CO2 was leaking out. Had my tank set to very low pressure. Thinking there have to be better carboy caps out there.

@ShortCircuitedBrewers

3 жыл бұрын

Yeah it doesn't take much pressure to cause a leak. BUT I wouldn't pressurize a carboy that much anyway. 👍🍻

That's an interesting procedure. Thanks for the video! What pressure level would you recommend setting when injecting CO2 into the carboy? I have a glass carboy and would be a bit concerned about pressurizing it too much.

If you open the pressure valve while it's filling won't that allow oxygen to reenter the keg? I would instead get a one way plastic valve W a low cracking pressure from somewhere like US plastics and attached it to your gas side. This allows co2 to escape while keeping oxygen from entering.

@ShortCircuitedBrewers

Christopher Saint that's not necessary because when you're filling The Keg there's positive pressure going out because the beer is displacing the CO2 that you filled the keg with

Sure, just be mindful of the pressure like the glass carboys.

Not sure if someone has asked this yet as this is an old video but why do you set the PRV valve in the open position during the transfer? Wouldn’t this release the CO2 layer on top of the beer?

@ShortCircuitedBrewers

3 жыл бұрын

The beer rising up in the keg creates positive pressure out of the open PRV. The keg is full of CO2 from the start. There is no intake back through the PRV.👍🍻

It would not release the pressure and it would stop the flow of beer. Glass carboys shouldn't be pressurized with more than a couple psi.

Why did you transfer sanitizer into a second keg? Just to save the sanitizer for future use?

QUESTION??

No co2 back into the carboy is fine. I assume you had a little pressure in your keg when you hooked up the transfer hose and that's how it happened. RDWHAHB 😜 👍🍻
