  I don't work for the company, I just bought this awesome piece of equipment and made some videos for it. I'm sure American Canning would offer training but it really isn't that hard to learn. If you watch all these videos and set it up for the first time you will get the hang of it during your first canning session.

  Just FYI, you can also get pleated washable sediment filters, which can be washed a few times and re-used. There are also cage filters, used by many breweries. They are back-flushable sediment filters so you can reverse flow and push it out a seperate flushing port.. Those cage filters are made by companies like Synopex.

  Can you clarify if you need to manually shut off the fill at the right fill height or does the fill stop itself based on a blocked vent so you can take your time to close liquid supply and disconnect? Do you vent off counter pressure before removing bottle? Thanks.

• 
  @TwistedElkBreweryLakeCityPA5 ай бұрын

  This is a fully manual set up so you do have to shut the fill valve when liquid reaches the top. If you don't catch it right away it's not detrimental, it will just push beer out the PRV. You can vent off pressure before removing bottles if you want, but I don't find it necessary. Actually when you got it running smooth out of the BT at the right temp and pressure, you will want to release the bottle fast to help get a little foaming action so you can cap on foam and purge that air pocket off the top. This system does take a little practice to perfect it.

• 
  @etzeln3 ай бұрын

  @@TwistedElkBreweryLakeCityPA This is exactly what I was wondering regarding ability to cap on foam. Is it simply the speed at which you pull it off the filler that will produce foam at the end? Any other tips to get foam - faster fill? Have you ever tested DO and TPO to see how efficient this system is at keeping oxygen out?

• 
  @TwistedElkBreweryLakeCityPA3 ай бұрын

  @@etzeln Foam control can be a bit tricky on this system and has to do with many factors. C02 Volume plays a big role, if you overcarb the beer it can be very difficult to bottle because it will foam too much. Too little carb can make it harder to induce foam and you also end up with an under carbonated finish product. It will take a few batches to dial in your system process. I am planning a video soon dedicated to carbonation so keep an eye out for that one. Here is some other tips: 1. Increasing the fill speed (adjusting the pressure relief valve) will help induce foaming a bit and decreasing speed will help if you are getting too much foam. 2. TEMPERATURE is really important here. I like to get my BT at 32 before packaging. Cold beer less foam, warmer beer more foam. 3. BT head pressure plays a big role. I like to package at about 17-18 psi which helps keep co2 in solution. 4. If you have a good carb level, cold BT, and proper pressure and need to induce foaming to fill headspace then one trick I've done is pulling the bottle off fast and setting it down a little harder before capping. You can also give the bottle a little shake before you pop it off. I did have some bottles tested a long time ago for D/O and they were pretty good but I don't remember exactly what the numbers were. This is going to depend greatly on the operator and how well you perform the bottling session. This is the downside of this system but I have used this for over 2 years with great results before moving to my canning machine. I hope this helps you out!

  It looks like you have your CO2 vents wide open. Do you throttle them back to control CO2 breakout, or leave them wide open like that?

• 
  @TwistedElkBreweryLakeCityPA7 ай бұрын

  The beer stops actually adds resistance so although the valve is wide open the pressure is reduced through the beer stop so its being filled under pressure. I always turn the valve off in the beginning until the pressure equalizes and then open the valve.

  I'm trying to figure out the best way to set up a jockey box and am stuck on this issue: If temperature differential is causing foam, wouldn't using a tap with the least weight (thus less thermal capacity) be important? This would mean not using a flow control tap and yet all jockey boxes I see have flow control.

• 
  @TwistedElkBreweryLakeCityPA6 ай бұрын

  I don't think the minor difference in weight is going to stop the tap from heating up during hot summer days and make much of a difference. The flow control valve is very helpful with controlling the pressure and pouring at a slower speed. This is most helpful when pouring into small sample glasses. I hope this helps!

  when is the best time to filter the beer? I am a homebrew so it fermenter to corn keg for most beers I make. Or do I keg it cold crash it and then filter🙄

• 
  @TwistedElkBreweryLakeCityPA9 ай бұрын

  If you are fermenting from a brew bucket or carboy and have the ability to cold crash it like putting the whole thing in a fridge that is best. Then rack it into a keg and filter from one keg to the next keg. If you don't have the ability to cold crash, you may want to rack into a carboy first to give it time to clear and then into keg for a keg to keg filter. I hope this helps.

  Hi, I use plastic kegs, and I also ferment beer in them under pressure. The only problem is that the lids burst from time to time when I ferment under pressure, since there is a pressure device on it and it bends it. But they are cheap, you can change them every 2-3 months.

• 
  @alexey.manoylo9 ай бұрын

  Hi, I’ve been filtering beer through a 1 micron filter for about half a year now, and the beer is already carbonated. What can I say, it filters differently from the yeast cell, but it allows the malt cell to pass through, and after settling for about two weeks, malt sediment appears. You need to use a 0.5 micron filter or less if available.

• 
  @wacobeer64699 ай бұрын

  Great info. I have something to add. You must know the pressure at which your beer was originally carbonated. In my Brewery, we carbonate to 2.3 volumes or about 12.8 PSI at 38 degrees. We store and serve in our taproom at about that temperature and push with 10 PSI or under through 80+ feet of 5/16" trunk line. You probably are similar in your taproom. Line length is important because higher lengths and smaller diameter lines resist more and you want to resist all of that 12.8 PSI in your lines. There are calculations to show you how all that works and the same thing applies in a Jockey box. You essentially want the beer to fall out of the faucet rather than be forced out under pressure -- that would cause foaming even if everything else was perfect. Thanks and Cheers!
