Keg Washing Service at Terminal City Brewing

We got ourselves a new keg washer and we're now offering keg cleaning services for home brewers. Our machine will clean and sanitize commercial kegs - we're set up for Sankey D kegs.

$9.99 + tax for a clean and sanitize, we can usually do them right away. We'll purge them and fill them with CO2 as part of the service so they're ready to fill.

I'm working with an Okanagan-based kombucha brewery as part of a UBC course. What are your thoughts on hard kombucha? Have you tried it? Would you ever buy it?

My team and I are hoping to learn how people feel about hard kombucha. If you've got a few minutes free today, help a fellow beer lover out. I need at least 100 responses to the survey below to pass the course 🤲

Looking for clear beer bottles for u-brew

My spouse and I are planning on giving away cider as wedding favors. The cider we like is a beautiful color and it's a shame to use a amber beer bottle.

We've been unsuccessful at finding clear, 355ml beer bottles.

We need 120 and they have to be able to have bottle caps (NOT TWIST)

Can anyone help?!!!

recommendations for good beer bars near the Sheraton in Richmond?

Whats up Vancouver homebrewers.

I'm going to be in Van tomorrow until monday, for the Canadian brewing Awards conference. As the conference doesn't officially start until the 26th, and I get in fairly late on the 25th, I was wondering if you guys knew of any decent bars near the sheraton in richmond.

Sorry, I couldn't find a specific Vancouver beer scene subreddit, but I figured if anyone knew of a good spot it'd be a bunch of homebrewers. I was a homebrewer myself before I got into professional brewing, and you guys always know the best spots.

cheers!

Looking to rent/borrow Corny kegs

I'm getting married this summer and just got the bright idea to serve my own homebrew but can't afford to buy a bunch of new kegs that I won't need after. Does anyone know where I could rent (or possibly borrow from a kind soul) 4 Cornelius kegs until late summer?

Looking for 2nd hand equipment

I have some time off for brewing so I thought I'd give a shout here.

Got lots of bottles, need the carboys, a bottle capper, filling stuff. Not going to start filling kegs though. I have a whole kitchen to work with (when the wife isn't ironing her scrubs in there).

I AM a talented woodworker so could trade work for supplies but cash will work too.

Relatively new to homebrew and looking for supplies to start.

I've had a co-op position at a 'brew your own' establishment in the past and so I have a good general sense of the procedures involved.

I wanted to ask if someone could point me in the direction of sourcing some cheap buckets with the right valves to get myself started.

Also, I'd love to be able to make my own cider but I don't know if such a thing is possible or where I'd even get the juice to start with. Thanks for your time, :)

Will be bringing Homebrews south of the border coming from Canada.

In a very close future, I will be driving down to Washington state coming from British Columbia. I want to bring a few homebrews to family I got down there.

Now my question is, what are the regulations for that? I don't want the american border patrols to think im smuggling meth or moonshine or bombs or terrorists.

Nitrogen Kits (Gas and Equipment)

Hey all,

Does anyone have a nitro set up going?

Where did you get your equipment?

Who fills your beer gas?

Is there anything I should know before I jump into it?
